Kiddush
Kiddush this week is sponsored by Rachel Cohen in celebration of Shanan Cohen’s birthday.
One of the things that makes our Netivot Shalom community so special is our commitment to having kiddush every week - whether or not we have a sponsor. This ensures there is always time to connect with old friends and make new ones. It is an important of why we are known as a warm and welcoming shul.
The Annual Simchat Torah Kiddush makes this possible. Money raised for this gala kiddush funds kiddush on all the weeks we do not have a sponsor. Everyone is encouraged is to sponsor.
