We will honor Shalom Press as our Chatan Torah, and Gert Bacol as our Kallah B'reishit, at our Simchat Torah morning service. Both are “regulars” at Shabbat services and members of families with multiple generations of strong commitment to Zionism and the State of Israel. Shalom, a long-time physician in Greater Buffalo, has quietly strengthened our congregation’s ties with Israel. Gert, a mother and grandmother of Israelis, has long regarded Temple as her second home. SIMHAT TORAH KIDDUSH -The annual Simhat Torah Kiddush lunch will be held at the conclusion of services on Friday, October 25th. Everyone is invited to attend the morning service, participate in the festive activities, and partake of the Kiddush lunch. Those who would like to sponsor or make a donation for the Kiddush lunch should contact the synagogue office. |
The back is embroidered with the name of a soldier or hostage who fell on or since October 7th.
We have received this beautiful Torah cover to commemorate October 7th, and to honor the memory of Dror Or, a victim of October 7 and a cousin of Shalom Press. We are still accepting donations to defray the expense. Thank you to Sandy Rossen Lahrey from Jerusalem for sending us this picture of our Torah cover.
