BOOK OF RUTH STUDY SESSION
|
|
Sunday, May 10th at 4:30 pm
with Rabbi Wenger and Faye Lincoln
|
|
We're now in Sefira, that sad period between Passover and Shavuot. At this time, many of us are inadvertently refraining from haircuts, live concerts, and the like. Why? Not only because Dr. Fauci warns us, but because, in the time of our Roman conquest, the earliest of Rabbis were stricken with a deadly plague. That plague was lifted on Shavuot.

PLEASE MAKE YOUR PAYMENTS ONLINE
|
|
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic we are determined to reduce social and physical contact with each other and with any paper or products that could potentially become infected. Rather than making payments to Kol Ami with checks or cash, whenever possible please pay with your credit card or bank card.
Paying with your bank card is safe, withdraws funds directly from your bank account, and avoids interest charges—it’s just like paying by check or cash. If you need help navigating ShulCloud or working through this payment process, please contact the office at
info@conkolami.org or 801-484-1501.

IN ORDER TO KEEP OUR COMMUNITY SAFE, THE OFFICE IS CLOSED AND ALL PROGRAMMING IS BEING HELD REMOTELY

Staff and clergy will be answering questions regarding office, religious school, and preschool related matters via email. We will respond to you as soon as possible. Contacts can be found below:
If you have an urgent matter and you need to speak to someone in the office please call Tracy Plotkin, Administrative Assistant, at 773-474-2672. If prompted to leave a message, please include the spelling of your name and the best phone number to reach you.

"Coffee" with the Cantor
As our regularly scheduled school-year is winding down, the Cantor wants to make sure to touch base with all our our Religious School parents. Come talk about how you’re holding up, how your kids are doing, and how we can best serve you and your family. Please plan on attending at least one of these conversations. Bring a pastry, a cup of coffee, and a Thing That’s Working.
