Todah Rabah
Volunteers do most of the work of maintaining our small community. Without willing helpers, we wouldn’t exist. Many people volunteer their time and money to sustain Har Shalom, and we are exceedingly grateful for each generous act.
In every public “thank you”, we always manage to leave someone out, and this may be a good problem to have because it is the result of having so many to thank! So, here we go, and with thanks to those who are patiently waiting for acknowledgement in the next newsletter.
Todah Rabah to:
Robin Abeshaus and Anna Kalm, for super-human effort to plan, feed, house and transport the NY a capella singing group, Pizmon, during their May visit.
