Thanks
We would like to thank Gillian Lucas and Traci Spivack for the most wonderful Shabbas that we have had, since arriving at Stanmore Hill. We also want to thank each of the 50 service contributors, who made the service so special. There were 12 first timers ever, doing something brand new on the bimah. There was a lot of kwelling and loads of shehechyonus too.  Thanks also to Rabbi Anthony, for listening to lots of the new service contributors of last Shabbas and we hope future shabbasses and festivals and I am sure he was kwelling personally.  No service takes place without its helpers and we extend a special thanks to the kiddish preparers on Friday and Shabbas morning, as well as the security team members for the biggest shabbas visitor registration, to date at MJC.

Talmud Class
Both the Pesach and Easter school holidays are over and the weekly Talmud class starts again tonight at 8pm, in person, at Stanmore Hill.  You can also join in on zoom.
