SUPPORT YOUR JEWISH

ASSOCIATION

OF THE PHILIPPINES

Do you know that membership in the

Jewish Association of the Philippines

only costs PHP18,000 per year for a

family and PHP14,000 per year for sin-

gles? Do you know that this small

amount goes to paying for all the

Shabaton lunches, dinners, events,

salaries, lights, maintenance and up-

keep of the building. And in addition

to all this, your Jewish Association

does a lot of charity work.

The Bar Mitzvah Celebration of Aaron Joseph Santiago

A Party at the Zeitoune’s to Welcome the New Ambassador from

Israel Ambassador Menashe Bar On and Mrs. Eti Bar On

Bruce Silverman said we had a wonderful get together to begin the process of establishing a Jew-

ish organization here in Baguio. We had a turn-out of 12. Paul M led the meeting with a well com-

posed introduction with the message of Jew's staying cohesive. Bruce took the minutes of the

meeting and Paul M took some photos and all attendees contributed opinions and thoughts.

Name of organization-. Next meeting a vote will be taken for the official naming.

Number of times a month should we meet- Twice a month seemed to be the consensus. One time a

month for a official meeting and once a month for a pure social get together.

Purim and Hanukkah- Was establish as fun holidays and ones to be celebrated together. High Holi-

days and more religious holidays options were discussed. Such as coordinating travel plans to the

synagogue in Manila. Or for the tradition and heritage with a very modified service, attending The

Bagels Boys get together in Angeles City. Some suggested the possibility of members doing services

here in Baguio.
