You can choose to be setup with annual automatic renewal 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 ack 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.
