Altshul Announcements

2.    Saturday Morning Minyan, June 26, 10am + Potluck Picnic in Prospect Park 

Altshul will meet Shabbat morning, June 26th in the Chapel at Beth Elohim. Kindershul will start at the beginning of the Torah services.

After kiddush, we will walk to Prospect Park for a potluck vegetarian picnic. Please bring food that is hechshered or from a kosher or strictly vegetarian kitchen, as well as blankets, benchers, and frisbees. 

3.    Kiddush Sponsors Needed!

Celebrating a simcha? Commemorating a yahrzeit? Just enjoy schmoozing? How about sponsoring kiddush?

Kiddush, like everything else in our volunteer led community, is provided entirely by your generosity. Sponsoring kiddush is a great way to give back to the Altshul community and is appreciated by everyone. This summer, we need sponsors for regular kiddush and mini-kiddush on picnic weeks. If you're concerned about the cost you can co-sponsor with a friend, or we can pair you up with a co-sponsor. To sponsor, or if you have questions, please contact Charlie at soc...@altshul.org.

Community Events

5.    Soil, Soul & Service at Isabella Freedman Jewish Retreat Center

You're invited to join us for a three to six-night stay any time between June 28 – July 25 while we get our hands in the soil, engage our souls, and find ways to be of service to the world. There is no charge for your visit, all we ask is that you consider making a donation of $60 per night to cover our basic costs of housing and meals.

In exchange for full use of our facility, we're asking for a few hours of your time each day to contribute to our work here at Isabella

Freedman. Whether you help out in one of our gardens, pull weeds or harvest veggies on the farm, work in dining room or housekeeping, your contribution will be deeply appreciated.

And while you’re here you’ll also have time to enjoy boating, fishing, use of our gym and hot tub, tennis, arts & crafts, guided hikes, farm and green tours. Enjoy delicious food from our organic farm, restore your body and spirit in a yoga or meditation class, relax in the sun, swim in the lake or pool, go for a hike in our 300-acre wooded land…or just sit by the lake and unwind.

Visit www.isabellafreedman.org/soilsoulservice for more information.
