WELCOME RABBI JEFFREY SALKIN !
Don't forget to make your reservation for the Annual Sabbath Dinner honoring Rabbi Gladstone's retirement.
SABBATH SERVICE REMINDER
After the long winter, Shabbat services have resumed on Friday nights as of April 5. Following services we have an Oneg Shabbat.
Please consider providing an Oneg Shabbat, perhaps in memory of a loved one, in celebration of a family simcha, or perhaps "just because." If you are interested in claiming a particular date, please contact the Temple Office at 201-858-2020

BAKELESS CAKE SALE
By participating in this fundraiser, you save time, avoiding the trip to the supermarket to buy ingredients -- there’s no traffic, no waiting in line. And, you help save the earth’s ozone layer by not running the car engine. Best of all, you avoid spending an afternoon in the kitchen, mixing and cleaning, wondering whether or not the cake will rise. All that your Sisterhood asks is that you make a donation to cover the unbaked cakes, with love.
Thanks in advance for your generous help.
