Dear JCM Members,
We would like to extend a warm invitation to join us for the morning Shabbat service this Saturday, January 20th. This will be the first morning Shabbat service we've had in awhile. Sam Shnider will be leading the service but welcomes anyone who would like to assist.
After the service, we will be hosting a brunch to honor our dedicated lay leaders and generous donors who have contributed their time, effort, and resources to our Shabbat services. Ed Finkel,the Managing Director of the Jewish Federation of North America will be joining us. Ed was instrumental in JFNA's contribution to the wildfire funds for the Jewish communities on Maui. The service will be from 10am-11:30am. Brunch to follow shortly thereafter.
In observance of Shabbat, this gathering is a social event not a business meeting. Please RSVP to Kalo at jcmmauijews@gmail.com by 12pm on Thursday, January 18th if you are able to attend. If you have any questions, please contact Kalo. Friendly reminder that will also have service on Friday evening. We are eagerly looking forward to your presence and participation.

It is fine just to be present and to listen. Please respect confidentiality to the greatest extent possible, especially not disclosing who is present or who spoke about a particular topic.
