Save the date! Shul members are invited to join us for our annual General Membership Meeting on Sunday, August 15, at 8:00 pm. The meeting will be held on Zoom.
We need help with setup and break down of our tefillah space, especially when we daven outdoors. Please contact Daniel Rabin (president@shaareiorah.org) if you can volunteer every few weeks to help out.
If you would like to deliver a D'var Torah on an upcoming Shabbat, please contact Shmuel Honig (divreitorah@shaareiorah.org).
Virtual and Physically Distant Programming: We are always looking for additional ways to close the distance! If you have any ideas, please be in touch with Carolynn Feldblum (programming@shaareiorah.org).
Discretionary Fund
We are pleased to let you know that Sha'arei Orah, as a result of the efforts of the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia, now has a modest emergency fund to help relieve financial distress caused by COVID-19. The Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia is leading many Emergency Response efforts for our community. They generously created a grant to our shul's Discretionary Fund to support those of us in need. Additional information about the Fund can be found here.
These funds are intended to help those in need of food, medical assistance, rent/mortgage payments and/or medical expenses. If you are in need of assistance, or have any questions, please reach out to Daniel Rabin and we will work to help as much as we are able. Your conversations will remain in the strictest of confidence.
May we all have a year of health, happiness, and prosperity.
