October 11th is National Coming Out Day

Today is National Coming Out Day.  
You can read about it here and here.


Later in the month we'll be having a special guest speaker at our Friday Night Services.  This event is open to the public:

Our synagogue’s Social Action Committee cordially invites you to attend a significant and timely Friday Night Forum:

Missing Voices: Engaging and embracing GLBT youth and adults in our Jewish community.

The celebrated inclusiveness of Long Island in this 21st century often does not reach our Jewish GLBT community, especially GLBT youth, who are daily subject to discrimination, ostracism, and worse in their social, community and employment endeavors.

DO NOT MISS this forum for dialogue, learning and action, featuring dynamic speaker Karen Taylor, Director of Jewish Outreach, L.I. GLBT Services Network, and a panel of congregation members and friends.

DATE: Friday, October 19, 2012
TIME: Forum is at 8:15 p.m. Please join us for Friday night services at 7:30 p.m.
LOCATION: Kehillath Shalom Synagogue 58 Goose Hill Road, Cold Spring Harbor, NY

Open to the entire concerned community.
All are welcome!
