Addressing the Needs of our Membership

I encourage each member to be a partner in helping to identify needs in our Shul family that we are able to address. If you, or someone you know, is ill, in need of a visit, or would benefit from counseling, please share this information, as permitted by individual aspects of confidentiality. I am available, as well as Bikur Cholim and the social workers from Jewish Family Services and MorseLife with whom we maintain ongoing partnerships, to help address personal needs. Our Bikur Cholim contact is chairperson Bayla Ackerman, 845-461-5405.

Rabbi Benjamin Yasgur

Congregation Torah Ohr Derech Eretz

Our shul policy is that there are no “reserved” seats at any of our services (except the few officially so designated). While a gentle request for an accommodation may be in order, no one already seated should be told he or she must move. Seats may not be held for late-comers. If one is late and a seat is not available, it is recommended to check availability in other scheduled minyanim.

Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.

MARCH PLEASE SEE CALENDAR FOR FEBRUARY EVENTS

We extend a special thanks to Rabbi Yasgur for his valuable insight and planning, and to Rabbi Weinreb, Rabbi Kornblum, and Rabbi Kalinsky who each provided inspiring insights. We also wish to thank those people who provided their time, guidance, and assistance in elevating this event. The turnout at the shul was truly inspiring. We thank you all. May we all be blessed by Brachot the Torah will provide. —Heléne and David Levitsky
