CELEBRATE THE HIGH HOLY DAYS WITH US

Every Rosh Hashanah, Jewish families around the world observe a special tradition. They extend best wishes for good health and peace in the coming year to friends, neighbors, and congregants. Bnai Shalom provides an opportunity to send warm wishes without the leg work.

Here is how this program works:

Indicate the congregational families to whom you wish to send New Year greetings. Complete the attached form, and return it to the Bnai Shalom office BY THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 2025, with your check. We will do the rest. A New Year's card for 5786 will be sent with your greeting. The cost for this program is as follows:

$3.00 for each of the first six names ($18.00)

$2.00 for each of the next six names ($12.00)

OR

$36.00 for your family's greetings to be sent to the entire congregation

Please join us in extending to all our congregational families a New Year filled with sweetness and happiness.

If there are any questions, please contact the Bnai Shalom office at 610-258-5343. Remember, your completed form and check must be received BY THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 2025.
