08/07/20: Shabbat Shalom
The information below comes from our Shabbat Bulletin. Currently we have transitioned our voice to the web, making all materials easily available for our members. The information below would have been published in our Shabbat Bulletin. For the time being, since we are not creating the Bulletin in paper form, we have transitioned this information to our website, for ease of access while keeping our distance from one another. We look forward to publishing again in the future.
