We will offer a full array of minyanim this Shabbat at 7, 8 and 9 AM (indoors and outdoors), Youth Groups at 10 AM and our youth will be joining us at 11:00 AM to lead Adon Olam. This coming week marks the first Yahrzeit of Rabbi Jonathan Sacks and our divrei Torah will be shared in his memory. Join the OU for a commemorative evening on Tuesday night, October 26th. For more info, click here. This Shabbat afternoon, we invite baby boomers and seniors to an Open Tent Meet and Greet at the shul tent at 4 PM. Sunday morning, join us for a special Youth Mitzvah morning. Details below. It was wonderful seeing so many new people at our new and prospective member brunch on Sunday. We are thrilled to welcome so many people to Stamford and Agudath Sholom! Thank you Meg Haron and Hilary Goldstein for organizing the event so beautifully and Diane Cohen for hosting. We as a community rest on the shoulders of so many people who came before us and invested in our shul and community. In this spirit, check out Stories of CAS featuring Rabbi Ehrenkranz, of blessed memory, Herm Alswanger and Lorraine Kweskin. We are carrying the hopes and dreams of pioneers in our community and our hope to deepen the impact of Agudath Sholom, God willing in good health for many years! Wishing you and your families a Shabbat Shalom, Rabbi Daniel Cohen
