Community deserves thanks
Letters
Editor: On behalf of the board of directors of congregation Beth
Hamidrash, I would like to thank everyone that came forward to help
us in the building of our wonderful new synagogue. First I would
like to thank the Jewish Western Bulletin for giving us so
much publicity which resulted in an outpouring of support from the
community. I would like to also thank the many people that have
contributed so generously to our building fund and helped in other
ways throughout the years.
There are so many people that have helped us arrive at the advanced
stage of development that we are now at. In particular, I would
like to mention the generous contribution of the Khalifa family
in donating so many months of their time to directly overseeing
the construction. Architects Michael Katz, Jonathan Katz and Renee
Katz have donated countless hours of their time in conceiving and
designing a structure that the entire community can be proud of.
Last but not least, we are most grateful to Victor Setton for his
continued hard work and generosity.
We are still in need of additional support to furnish the sanctuary
and complete the kitchen and social hall. With the strong support
that the community has shown up to now, we are confident that we
will be able to complete the project in the very near future.
Stanley Shawn
President, Beth Hamidrash
