Sol & Sarah Sacks Memorial Elul Program Kiddush Luncheon The entire community is invited to our annual Sol & Sarah Sacks Memorial Elul Kiddush Luncheon, this Shabbos, August 25, after services. We thank Marvin Sacks, Elsie Rothstein, Nancie Bair & Lenny Sacks for continuing to memorialize their parents with this program. May their memory serve as a source of blessing & inspiration. The luncheon will be catered by our very own Keisari Catering & Dr. Elliot Bartky will be the featured speaker. It promises to be a beautiful event. Dr. Bartky’s first lecture: “Why the Jews: Contemporary anti-Jewish thought and action in historical perspective” will meet at 1:00 PM (Babysitting will be provided to enable all to attend). There will be a second lecture at 6:30 PM: “Why the Jews: Teshuva, saving us from ourselves”. See page 3 for the event flyer.
