Rita and I have settled comfortably into our roles as Sisterhood Co-Presidents. This is due largely to the wonderful Sisterhood Board members who are so very helpful, encouraging and cooperative. Part of our job is to interact with the Temple Board. Therefore, please contact us and let us know if you have any concerns or interests that you want brought to their attention.
Shalom,
Bea Gatzek and Rita Frazer
Sisterhood Co-Presidents
The June Bulletin reported that the Sisterhood was planning a Bazaar in November. Now, however, our goals are clearly defined. We concluded that a Jewish book, gift and art fair will be more productive. We will reach out to the Laguna Woods Jewish community to solicit donations of Judaica: Menorahs, Seder & Sabbath Plates, Pictures, Plaques, etc. We will also seek books with Jewish/Israeli themes such as: Novels, Politics, History, and Biographies. Also, we will welcome decorative bric-a-brac, such as figurines, vases and even table lamps. Our intent is to attract Laguna Woods residents and introduce them to our beautiful Temple. Your tzedaka will help to make this a WIN-WIN event! Community and congregation advertisement will continue as long as the donations come in. In addition to your contributions, I welcome your suggestions for making our Judaica Fair a huge success. Call Bea Gatzek at 455-1237, or at the Temple Gift Shop.
July 18 and August 22 at 5:00pm. Shabbat dinners at Clubhouse 6. Break bread with your Temple family. Enjoy a sumptuous dinner like the ones that you celebrated with your mishpokhe. Only this time, without the schmaltz and accompanying heartburn. And, thankfully, no stewed prunes for dessert! Only $18.00 per person. Call Leah Wirthat at (949) 859-5891. Make your reservation today!
Did you ever feel slighted because you weren’t invited to the fashion shows in Paris, Milan and London? Get over it. You wouldn’t have enjoyed seeing a group of anorexic, teen-aged models wriggling and prancing down a runway, modeling “designer” concoctions that actually look like bizarre Halloween costumes. Instead, attend the Sisterhood Fashion Show on September 15, featuring classy clothing, modeled by our own classy Sisterhood members. In addition, you will enjoy a great lunch. Could you have had all of that in Paris for only $15.00? More information will follow in the next bulletin.
