COMMUNITY NEWS

HOW WOULD IT AFFECT YOU IF THERE WAS NO ERUV?

The four volunteers who have maintained the Eruv for 15 years are retiring! Wanted: Young people (20's, 30's, 40's) to replace these four people to make up the core group that is responsible for keeping the Eruv up and coordinating the weekly volunteers that assist. Training will be provided (no pole climbing involved). Must be able to use basic tools, (hammer, nails, screwdrivers, pruner, etc.). Must be able to work at variable times prior to Shabbos:

** Spring and Summer: Thursday during the day or evening, Friday in the morning.

** Late Fall and Winter: Thursday evening or Friday morning.

It is imperative to keep this valuable asset viable in our community. We can't let ‘someone else’ do it. This is our Eruv, we as a community are the ones who must take care of it.

Please contact Rabbi Shulman or one of the four people listed below:

Mickey Ariel 314-780-5403 --                            arielm@slu.edu

Joel Garbow 314-973-4321                                 garbow@wustl.edu

Alan Haber 314-368-4446         alan.haber@qtechusa.net Stuart Zimbalist 314-889-7052 stuart.zimbalist@gmail.com

BYHS MITZVAH WORKSHOP. Boys who have completed 6th-8th grade: Learn all about the mitzvah of you choice with Rabbi Yablok, every Wednesday evening, July 1st through August 5th, here at Young Israel. The first class has already taken place, but you can begin anytime. For more information contact Rabbi Yablok at rabbiyablok@gmail.com .or 314-256-9043

FOOD SHORTAGE: The Harvey Kornblum Food Pantry is asking for our help. They have had over an 80% increase in clients between January and May of 2009 compared with the same months in 2008. Because of this, they need to restock their shelves more often. The kids are home from school now and the meal programs for students do not operate in the summer. They are in need of most items, but especially: peanut butter, jelly, rice, tuna, juices, macaroni & cheese, and healthy snacks. If you have any questions, please contact Sue Rundblad at 314-812-9307 or srundblad@jfcs-stl.org.
