High Holidays

[Elias Friedman]

The Seasons turn and once again the high holidays are here. Congregation Knesseth Israel's 101^st annual high holidays services will be led by Rabbi Gary (Gedalia) Zweig. Rabbi Zweig comes to celebrate with us all the way from Toronto. He is an experienced Orthodox rabbi with Smicha from Aish Ha Torah Yeshiva in Jerusalem. He has recently published a book about the Kaddish prayer and he plays a mean guitar too!

As always, we neither charge admission, sell seats, nor auction aliyas; all who wish to worship with us are free to come. Donations are always welcome as we ran up some extra expenses this year and of course dues are due as well. I wish you all a happy and sweet new year filled with simchas. See you all soon.

Elias Friedman, President
