Mazal Tov to our B ‘nai Mitzvot, Esther Emma and Daniel Baruch Gordon, children of Hagar Gordon and Ronen Klinghofer, sister and brother of Liya. Esther and Daniel are graduates of The Shlenker School and are going into the 8th grade at Emery-Weiner Middle School. Due to COVID-19 Esther and Daniel’s family from Israel and friends will not be present at their B’nai Mitzvah’s service. However, they are thankful that they can join their celebration and service virtually. For their mitzvah project Esther and Daniel will be participating in the Rabbi’s 10% plan by donating a portion of their monetary gifts to the Sunshine Kids Foundation.

DonationsTo make a donation please visit our website at www.bethyeshurun.org/donations. You may also mail your donation to the synagogue office. A minimum donation of $18 per listing is required to have your donation published in the weekly bulletin and a notification letter sent to the honoree or a deceased person’s family member.

A Notice About Bereavement Communications Bereavement notices for our synagogue family are distributed with the permission of the deceased’s family, and the timing of these notices is dictated by the family’s request. Of course, each family grieves in its own way, and we are grateful for our congregation’s patience and understanding with different families’ preferences about how their loss is publicized.
