Kiddush Committee News
Families interested in sponsoring a kiddush and/or seudat shlishit should
contact Holly so that she can reserve the date on the shul calendar. Please
also let Holly know if you would like to participate in an upcoming Crock Pot
Challenge which generally takes place around Rosh Chodesh. We've been
doing these for a year and are always seeking new families to take the
challenge.
Kiddush clean up is on a rotating basis, based on your last name. While we
recognize that everyone in your group may not be available each Shabbat,
we ask that you pitch in if you are assigned in that month so that the same
people are not doing the clean-up each week. We all like kiddushes and we
all make plans for lunch after shul so please be respectful of your fellow
congregants by helping out during your assigned month if you are in shul.
We also ask that you please watch your children during Kiddush to the
extent possible, and to place their finished items in the garbage cans
provided.
Nov: Segal, Wagh, Weinberger, Weinrib, Wiesel
For more information on anything Kiddush related, please contact Holly
Weiss at kiddush@arzeidarom.org.
Learning Opportunities
We are always looking for opportunities to strengthen our connection to
Torah. The more Torah in the shul, the better, so let us know if you have
any other suggestions.

Wednesdays at 7:50 pm before ma'ariv.

seforim, and need to continue to use it, please contact Rebecca Segal so
that we can keep track of where our seforim are. Thank you.

volunteer and encourage your children to join you for this great mitzvah.

Care One
Care One at Teaneck is seeking Shabbos host families to provide hospitality

accommodations for a spouse, adult child, friend, or other family member.
We gladly provide on site RCBC supervised meals, a beautiful Shul and most
other requirements. However, when our facility is full, we try to arrange
nearby off-site accommodations for sleeping. As a token of our
appreciation, we will gladly provide delicious Shabbos meals for the host
family, as well. To pre-register as a Shabbos host, please contact Laurie
