Hello Temple Beth Shalom Members and Friends, your July 2024 Chai Lites issue is ready in time for you to celebrate Summer, a new month, our country’s birth, and the return of our President and Editor from a distant land! Thanks to all of you for getting your pieces in so quickly and Mazel Tov to Lorraine for getting it done on the road! It looks fabulous! It is Summer, but still there is a lot going on. We look forward to seeing you.

Hello Temple Beth Shalom Members and Friends, welcome to June and a new issue of the Chai Lites! It is lovely with photos and stories of what we are all doing together as a congregation and community. Thanks to all of you who sent in the photos, and to all of you who are in the photos. 🙂 We have one more service (on Zoom June 7) and Torah Study with Rabbi Herzfeld before Summer vacation this season, and after that it’s up to us to continue learning and joining together for a little while. Many thanks also to our President and Editor, Lorraine Mixter, for pulling it all together!

Hello Temple Beth Shalom Members and Friends, the August Chai Lites are here! Not only does it contain the usual outstanding content like our schedule, photos of our adorable activity planners and participants, and reliably thoughtful columns, there are some presentations and services you won’t want to miss, and a valuable piece about dealing with antisemitic posts online.
