Announcements
Goodbye Kiddush for the Michelsons and the Schnecks
It is with bittersweet hearts we bid farewell to two families who have been an integral part of Netivot Shalom. We will miss the Michelson and Schneck families but are proud to support them as they make their new home in Israel.
The shul will be organizing a Kiddush in their honor: Shabbat Parshat Re'eh, August 7th.
To participate in sponsoring the kiddush, please click here by Sunday, August 1st. On the sponsorship form, you can also write a message to either or both families which will be shared with them.
