YOM KIPPUR APPEAL
Please give generously to the 5784 Yom Kippur Appeal, by clicking here. We’re hoping for 100% participation. As our facilities utilization, membership, programming, utilities, operational, security and maintenance needs increase, so do our costs. We rely on your financial support in order to continue to serve our community.

GABBAI NOTE
With Yom Kippur shortly upon us, I wanted to take the opportunity to ask Mechila from everyone of you. I know that I speak for all of the Gabbaim from - Weekday to Shabbat to Yomim Noraim that it was our intention to treat all of our members and guests with the utmost respect at all times. Unfortunately, we do come up short sometimes but know it was never intentional in nature.
May we all have a Gmar Chasima Tova and be inscribed for a year of health and happiness.

SIMCHAT TORAH CANDY BAG SPONSORSHIPS AND VOLUNTEERS

Teen and adult volunteers are also needed to pack the candy bags on October 5th. For more information e-mail nerot@rinat.org.

PEACE OF MIND
Rinat will host a unit of 21 IDF soldiers from October 15th-22nd. We will partner with the Peace of Mind Program, to create an environment for these heroes to process their combat experience together as a group with specially trained therapists. The distance from Israel and the community support play an important role in creating a safe, quiet and supportive environment. Members of our community will be afforded the opportunity to spend quality time with Israel’s best, in the process creating long-lasting personal ties and relationships. We are seeking volunteers for a variety of jobs. To become involved in this important program, click here or email peaceofmind@rinat.org.
