For the Blessings of Spring Flowers - Dayenu

Even though Passover is over, it isn’t too late to count your blessings and to help KSS.
 
 
Dear Kehillath Shalom Synagogue Members and Friends,
 
The Board hopes you and your family had a peaceful and meaningful Passover. Just as the Haggadah reminds us to say Dayenu (“That would have been enough for us”) for all the blessings that the Israelites received that helped bring them out of bondage in Egypt and into freedom in the Land of Milk and Honey, it is also a good time to recognize how blessed we are here in 2013.
 
Today, we are asking that you support Kehillath Shalom Synagogue by making a financial contribution to our Dayenu Fundraiser.
 
Let us remember the many blessings in our lives and realize how much more we have than would have been enough for us. Please count your blessings and consider making a donation of $2 for each one.
 
Blessings:
I have a safe and permanent place to live. Dayenu!
I have enough to eat. Dayenu!
I have clothes to keep me cool and to keep me warm. Dayenu!
I have a spouse/partner who supports me. Dayenu!
I have _____ children and grandchildren. Dayenu!
I have _____ siblings. Dayenu!
I have _____ parents, in-laws, grandparents and great grandparents. Dayenu!
I have _____ nieces and nephews. Dayenu!
I have _____ pets. Dayenu!
I have _____ bathrooms in my home. Dayenu!
I have _____ televisions in my home. Dayenu!
I have _____ cars. Dayenu!
I have _____ computers, tablets and cellphones. Dayenu!
I have _____ years of KSS supporting me by providing a place to worship, a place to gather with other Jews and a place to promote spiritual peace and growth. Dayenu!
 
Total number of blessings _____ x $2 = _____
 
Please make your check payable to Kehillath Shalom Synagogue and mail it to the office at 58 Goose Hill Road, Cold Spring Harbor, NY  11724. You can also make a donation via credit card if you call the office at 631-367-4589.
 
For next year and many more years after that at KSS,
 
Scott Ash (Fundraising Committee, Chairperson)

Services Led by our post Bar and Bat Mitzvah Students

Just a reminder that Saturday's Torah studies and services (April 27th) will be led (without parental input) by our own post Bar and Bat Mitzvah students, Daniel and Morgan.

Said parental units are very proud and hope very much that the community will come out in force to support the efforts of these two young adults who are making such and effort to practice Reconstuctionism - participatory Judiasm.

As always, Torah study begins at 10am and Services at 11am.

Shabbat Shalom!

Willie Wonka - the Amazing Chocolatier


A Note from our producer, Deborah Globus:


Dear me - what have I gotten myself into?

Producers aren't supposed to be IN the show?  Producers aren't supposed to have to *gasp* memorize lines.

But then, neither are Hebrew School directors or parents.  And all of them will be in this year's production of Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory presented by The Kehillath Shalom Kids Players.

Want to come watch us make fools of ourselves have fun on stage with our kids?!?  Get your tickets today by contacting Carolyn Mufson at (631) 470-3551 or email her at CarolynMufson at yahoo.com
