The Haimish Kiddush Group starts its third year in 2012. The Group would invites all YISE members join in this wonderful endeavor that has had such a positive effect on our Shul. The cost to become a member is $100. You can also choose to be setup with automatic renewal that will charge you each year for the Haimish Kiddush Group. If you are interested in joining or have any questions, contact Raph Ginsburg at rginsburg@yise.org.

For repairs, timing can be everything – For example, please tell us about sefer holders on back of the pews that are beginning to fall apart before the bottom falls out. It requires at least three times as long to reinstall the bottom once it falls out compared with a holder whose bottom is only loose. We have volunteers who help YISE with repairs to the building and its contents. As soon as you notice something, notify Alan in the office, 301-593-4465 or office@yise.org.

Reminder – Listings in the Shabbos Shorts are included as space is available, at the discretion of the YISE Staff. There are no guarantees that any non-Shul programs will appear. Items submitted to the Shabbos Shorts may be edited for space or stylistic requirements.
