We attended service, visited with the rabbi, and learned a lot about the Jewish faith. It is a blessing to experience the faith of others, as it also enriches the understanding of our own faith. On November 11th, we had good support from our youth for the Thanksgiving Nut Fry. Thanks need to be expressed to our young people and to all who helped. Let’s do it again this month at the December Nut Fry. Also on November 11th was the Care-To-Share Bon Ton sale. Thank you for supporting our youth program by purchasing coupons. On November 12th, we had our youth group movie night. We enjoyed watching the movie Cast Away. Afterwards, we discussed the many ways the movie touches upon images of our faith. Thanks to everyone who contributed to the Thanksgiving food box project on November 19th. Five local families benefited from this endeavor.
