Sarah and Emily Bradley’s Mitzvah Project!
Our mitzvah project is for the Humane Society. Sarah and I are making toys for dogs that do not have them, out of old t-shirts. The toys are very durable, and are fun for the dogs to play with. We chose this for our project because although the Humane Society does a great job taking care of the dogs, and rescuing them the dogs still need toys to play with. This subject was very close to home for us, because we have four dogs ourselves and whenever our dogs don’t have toys they always get cranky.
Do you have some T-shirts that you can donate to Sarah and Bradley? Their goal is to make 50 toys to donate! Please see the attached picture to see their dog with the toy!!
T shirts can be dropped off at Beth El Tuesday-Friday 9:00-4:30.

BETH EL NEWS
A message from your Security Committee:
The Security Committee would like to remind all members that our security guards work very hard to protect us while on duty. Their need to focus on potential threats is similar to a lifeguard. Just as we would not distract a lifeguard during their duties, please respect what our guards do for us and the guidelines under which they work. Please refrain from activities such as offering food to eat or chairs to sit on or any other well intentioned endeavor that would distract or diminish their job performance under our security protocols.
Thank you

My Apologies
to all those congregants who didn't receive a birthday greeting or received one on the wrong date! Please accept my apologies! As you can probably surmise, my computer skills are somewhat elementary. When trying to combine data from all these reports, well, to say that I try to save what I enter, then can't find the report where I thought I saved it, then, look in all the places it should be, and still can't find it! By the time I realize it's useless, it's just too late....the damage has been done! Worst of all, I messed up the birthday greeting for Rabbi Matuson, so, please, bail me out by wishing the Rabbi a very belated "Happy Birthday" from all of us at Beth El. Many, many thanks!

The next time you are walking into Beth El, please look down and take notice that there are 20 BEAUTIFUL NEW ENGRAVED BRICKS leading to the front entry, adding to the dozens of memories already there.
How special it is to honor, remember and perpetuate people and special occasions! This is an abiding remembrance that can warm your heart each time you come into Beth El.
You can still take advantage of this year’s Brick Sale. For only $100, you can purchase 2 bricks. The bricks become a permanent part of our synagogue. Our lively chair Paula Klausner will be delighted to help you.
