Winding Down....
We are in our final month of Hebrew School. The last day is Wednesday, May 29th. For those who only attend Sundays, please come to our Moving UP/Graduation ceremony which will be at 6:00 pm that night. It will be a wonderful ceremony that will surely emphasize our growth and our wonderful spirit.
On Wednesday, May 15th, there will be no regular Hebrew School. Because it is the first day of Shavuot, we will have a short fun service with the Rabbi and Cantor followed by...lots of dairy! Ice cream and more delectable delights. This will be at 5:00 pm.
We have done many great things as a community this year. The campfire last Sunday was one of the highlights. Our Sundays in the Gym have been a huge hit. We will reflect on the year and celebrate on the 29th.
We will be participating in the Celebrate Israel Parade in New York City on Sunday, June 2. Hebrew school will be over, but you can still participate! I need to know by this Sunday if you will be attending as T-shirts need to be pre-ordered and transportation needs to be coordinated.
See you Sunday! Shabbat Shalom.
