Thank You
I want to thank everyone for their support, visits, meals and kind words regarding the passing of my mother Ruth "Oma" Straus. Over the years the Shul was a very big part of her life. Because of you, my mother enjoyed every Shabbat and holiday that she attended at Netivot Shalom. You were all very welcoming and always engaged her in so many conversations.
The Netivot Shalom family was with us regarding every aspect of this difficult journey and Robin and I are so grateful to be part of this wonderful community.
Thank you again and we look forward to sharing many smachot together in the future.
Justin, Robin and the entire Straus family

Shabbat HaGadol Derasha & Mehirat Hametz
Rabbi Helfgot will deliver the Shabbat HaGadol Derasha, this Shabbat afternoon, March 24th after 6:45pm minha on the topic of "Kityinot Past, Present and Practical Psak"
Mehirat Hametz:
Please note that it is highly recommended to sell one's hametz in person. Rabbi Helfgot will be available for the sale of Hametz at the following times:
a) Sunday morning, March 25 after Shaharit at Netivot Shalom b) Sunday evening, March 25 from 8:00-9:00 PM at his home c) Wednesday evening, March 28 from 9:15-10:00 PM at his home
In the extreme situation that one cannot sell the Hametz in person it can be submitted via a completed form via email. All forms must be submitted to Rabbi Helfgot no later than Thursday evening, March 29th by midnight, as the mehirat Hametz happens early on Friday morning, Erev Pesah.
It is customary and highly laudatory to donate some tzedakah to Maot Hitim and the discretionary fund during the sale of Hametz.
The coat room is being cleaned out on Wednesday. If you want to retrieve your belongings, please do so before then.

This Week @ Netivot
Welcome
Welcome to Dan and Esty Brenner and family who are visiting the shul this Shabbat.
Pre-Pesach Wine & Cheese Tasting and Sale
This Saturday night, March 17th, at 9pm, come and join all your friends and fellow shul-goers for an evening of revelry, libations, fermented grapes, and cheese. Good friends, great music, and a chance to learn about, taste, and even buy a phenomenal selection of kosher wines from Israel and all over the globe, just in time for Pesach.
We are fortunate to have Kevin Roche, formerly of Queen Anne Wines, now of Shoppers Vineyard in Clifton, and his knowledgeable staff on hand to help everyone with their selection of wines at the lowest prices of the year. In addition to our regular selection of gourmet cheeses, Michael Rogovin will be bringing some new, very hard to find artisan cheeses this year.
This wonderful evening is also a fundraiser for the shul and all orders over $100 include free delivery.
Pay at the door, only $10 per person, $18 per couple. Note wine orders must be paid in advance when the order is placed and only checks and cash are accepted.
Keilim Kashering
Kashering of Keilim for Pesach is available on Thursday evening, March 22nd from 5:30PM - 8PM at Congregation Beth Aaron.
