We will also be hosting a seudah shlishit this week sponsored by Monica and Dr. Eric Jankelovits in memory of Eric's mother of blessed memory. As many of you know, the United Jewish Federation of Stamford, New Canaan and Darien in partnership with the Greenspoon Foundation launched the Life and Legacy program in our community. We are deeply appreciative of over 25 of members who signed letters of intent and are motivated to duplicate new commitments this year. I will be speaking briefly on Shabbat morning about this phenomenal program and urge you to reach out to me, Dan Faizakoff of Elissa Klapper, to learn more - https://jewishlifelegacy.org/. Brochures are available in the shul. Also, every week, we read the names of Yaarzeits in our community. This week, we remember Rabbi Joseph Ehrenkranz - whose transformative leadership for 50 years shaped our shul in eternal ways - and Minnie Manger - after whom our mikvah is named. Their yahrzeits are this week and we pray that their memories continue to be a source of blessing. We look forward to a wonderful Shabbat together. Wishing you and your families health, joy and good news in the days ahead and Shabbat Shalom, Rabbi Daniel Cohen Indoor Masking Update  In accordance with the policies of the City of Stamford, the following is now in effect at CAS: Masks are optional in the CAS building, regardless of age or vaccination status.
