One Special Volunteer Needed To Tend
Tree of Life
 

Qualifications:  Willingness to market new leaves to our congregants and place orders with the engraving company.  Will take very little of your time but can provide significant rewards for our kitchens.  Please contact Pam Singer, 314-275-9909.


LOST AND FOUND

We have quite a collection of jackets, sweaters, umbrellas, etc. that have taken up residence in our coat room.  If you are purposely leaving them here, that’s fine—if not, please take them home the next time you are here.  We also have several pairs of sunglasses and tallit clips in the office.  Come take a look—you may find what you’ve been missing.


All in the Family: Messages to our Members and Friends

  

To Rabbi Gordon, dear Marian and the Traditional Congregation Family: Indeed, "FAMILY," as I reflect upon these past two most difficult weeks, following the passing of my beloved Mother, Alicia Kornitzer Karpati. Rabbi Gordon's abundant kindnesses and efforts regarding the funeral; the Minyans; the outpouring of compassion, understanding and friendship leave Michael and me...my entire family, truly overwhelmed.  I am so very deeply grateful to each and every one of you, who took time to share in our sorrow; to all who demonstrated such sensitivity and a multitude of kindnesses toward us. We are honored and touched beyond words, and are blessed to be members of such an outstanding Congregation. 

Our most sincere, deep gratitude,

 Noémi Neidorff

 Thank you to my office Angels this month, Janice Pinkus, Peggy Rosen, Ron Rosen, and Ceil Tobin:  you answered the call for volunteers, and it is very much appreciated!  Thank you also to Tobie Hupert and Sylvia Wolff, who donated irons and ironing boards.  We now have one for the shul and one for the Shabbat House.

Cabaret!

Enjoy the 2010 Cabaret
all over again with
these pictures. 

(May take a few minutes to download.  Be patient - they're worth it.)


GOT GAME?

We’re looking for donations of Shabbat-appropriate board games—in good condition with all the pieces—for Shabbat afternoon get-togethers for our youth.  Please bring any games you no longer use to the office.  Thank you!

Zumi's Column: "One Nation"


Did you know?

 

  • Dierberg’s Scrip is available for purchase in the office.  We also have Schnuck’s courtesy e-cards.  No extra cost to you, just shop as usual and our shul receives a percentage of what you spend.  A foolproof way to raise money for Traditional!  Please note that we can no longer accept credit cards  or cash in payment.  Checks are welcome!

P.S.  The Jewish Food Pantry needs Dierberg’s cards for its clients.  If you would like to donate cards to the Food Pantry, you can purchase them through Traditional, give them to the Food Pantry, and take a charitable deduction.

It’s a WIN-WIN-WIN! 

??? about how it works?  Call Marian in the office.
 

  • Amazon.com and Traditional are shopping partners!  You can link to Amazon.com right from this message.  Or go to the Traditional home page, click on Our Shopping Partners in the left margin, then scroll down to the Amazon.com banner and click on it.  Make your purchase as usual, and Traditional gets a percentage—all at no extra cost to you!
