After services and before our Fathers' Day kiddush, Amit will address the entire congregation and present a pragmatic, sensible Emergency Action Plan (EAP). In case of emergency, this plan will guide the various elements of our bustling synagogue and coordinate the activity of our newly-formed Security Team and our staff. Our open, warm, and welcoming atmosphere forces us to face reality. It's our collective and individual responsibility to be as prepared as reasonably possible in the event we face those who wish to harm us. It is therefore critical that our active community members make every effort to attend and internalize Amit's address. To learn more, please contact Jeremy Watman at jeremy.watman@gmail.com.

Torah Readers: We are looking for men who can prepare to read at Shabbat Mincha (and possibly at Shacharit during the week as well) throughout the year. We are grateful to Elie Yudewitz who will read this Shabbat. A schedule of readers is being maintained. If you can commit to any dates, please contact Rabbi Bellino. We are also looking for women to prepare aliyot for a Women’s Torah Reading in the near future. Rabbi Bellino is happy to help anyone learn how to prepare a reading.
