LETTER ACKNOWLEDGING YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS TO B'NAI HORIN for IRS back up:

This year the letters won't go out til near the end of January. We will officially thank you for your contributions to B'nai Horin. The amount includes the Bar Mitzvah Program Fees, High Holy Days (but not meals or lodging), Shabbats and Hannukah (Passover is all meal cost, hence not tax deductible) and any contributions you have made. There will be a separate letter to thank you for the Shamim Fund (Peggi's India Project) contributions.

It's not too late to contribute to B'nai Horin this year. I will be out of town from the 30th til the 2nd of January. So when I return I will process everything received with a December 31st date. I know things are really tight for many people, but even a dollar makes a difference to us. And for my Shamim/India Fund a dollar goes a long way. So for those who want to make a year end contribution, please do it now!

HANNUKAH LIGHT TO YOU

Rabbi Stan, Rabbi Laura and I wish you a wonderful Hannukah. May you find your own inner light and shine it brightly to yourself and to our world, in your own unique way. We find YOU a great blessing in our lives.

JANUARY SHABBAT - 1.17.09

Rabbi Stan would like to dedicate our Shabbat to special prayers of thanksgiving on Peggi's safe return from my retreat in India, to prayers for peace, and for a special Kaddish for those who died in the attacks in Mumbai, especially for the Rabbi and his wife and the leader of Peggi's group and his daughter (Alan and Naomi Scherr). We will also take up a special collection for the families of those in India who helped Peggi and who are now out of work.

Cost: $20 NonMembers, $15 Members (First time guests are always welcome for free!)

For the luncheon:
Please bring a side dish, dessert or drinks to share if you can. Or give an extra $3 towards the main dish. Please RSVP via email to help us with the food planning! (Peggi@BnaiHorin.com)
