Columbus Eruv

It was approximately one month following the Exodus that the Jewish nation received the directive to refrain from carrying outside their home on the Sabbath, in the absence of an Eruv (Exodus 16:29). We are now in the time period leading up to Shavuos; exactly the same time period as when the Jewish nation learned what it was to live without an Eruv...

 

Virtually everyone uses the Eruv and the Eruv needs everyone's individual dues in order to maintain it. If you can not send in your dues now, we ask for a annual commitment to pay those dues when it is more convenient. Current annual dues are $180 per family but if you have not given for the past year, please consider increasing that amount to $250. 

 

If you have not sent in your contribution, please send your check to:

Eruv Society of Columbus

c/o Sanford Lefkowitz

165 S. Chesterfield Rd

Columbus, OH 43209.
