Yom Kippur Selichot - deadline extended!
Thanks to your response, we have raised sufficient funding for the Yom Kippur Selichot publication to go to print, though we have not yet covered the entire cost of the project. To date, approximately 25% of the membership has generously participated and we invite you to join the tzibbur in this endeavor. The printer advises that the donor pages are the last item to set and therefore if you would like to participate at any level and be “inscribed in the book”, there is an
inclusion deadline of August 13th. You can do so on the shul website or by accessing this link
https://www.rinat.org/form/selichot-sponsors.html . Please contact
gabbai@rinat.org if you are interested in a specific dedication. Note that if the remaining members would consider contributing $18, the printing cost is covered.
Many thanks for your consideration and positive response.

PARKING COURTESY TO RINAT’S NEIGHBORS
We value our good relationship with our neighbors. Therefore, it is disturbing that some have reported that their driveways have been blocked by cars belonging to people davening and attending events at our shul. We have advised our neighbors that we will cooperate to have violators reported, ticketed and/or towed. Please ensure that both members and visitors treat our neighbors as you would like to be treated.
