AHAVAS ACHIM YOUTH DEPARTMENT: A NEW CHAPTER BEGINS

This Shabbat, we officially mark the beginning of a new and exciting chapter for our shul youth, as Jesse and Kayla-Rachel Lerner begin their service as Youth Directors and Alex Ostrin begins his term as Teen Minyan Director. We wish them all much success and blessing as they lead our incredible and growing youth department. On Shabbat morning, please pop in and say hello and introduce yourselves to them (and then head out so your children can have a great group experience!). Jesse and Kayla-Rachel will also have a special "meet and greet" with parents at the conclusion of davening in the hallway outside the Upstairs Social Hall.

Shabbat, September 20: The Haftarah of Yom Kippur (Yeshayahu 57)

After decades in Torah education and the Rabbinate, he headed the Gershom Scholem Collection for Kabbalah and Hasidism at the National Library of Israel.
