Dear Students,

 

It has been a pleasure to see so many of you at services, dinners, and events over the past month. October is almost here, and with it comes the end of the high holidays. But never fear! Shabbat will always come, and with it the chance to take a deep breath, relax, and come together as a community. We look forward to seeing you all at our Shabbat services and FREE dinner this Friday.

 

This past Wednesday, we helped a sophomore student host a women's dinner in the Hillel South 40 Sukkah, and it was a blast! If you're interested in a fully funded Shabbat dinner (or other bonding event) for your floor, Birthright bus, sorority, fraternity, or just a group of friends, we'd be happy to make that happen! Get in touch with Miriam at [email protected].

 

 

B'Shalom (in peace),

The St. Louis Hillel Staff
