Or Shalom Men's Club

Dear Fellow Congregant,

I hope this finds you and your families well.

The Congregation Or Shalom Men’s Club has been quite active and we encourage all to join us. Our monthly Sunday morning meetings (which include breakfast) are open to all members and we encourage everyone’s participation in planning our activities and programs.

Our most successful Yellow Candle Program is thanks to the efforts of the Men’s Club to assemble and deliver these Holocaust Remembrance candles to our entire congregation. The funds raised by this program primarily support the annual Kristallnacht Program, but also support the New Haven Holocaust Memorial, restoration efforts of the Gerda III at Mystic Seaport, as well as purchasing flags for Jewish War Veterans on Memorial Day.

In addition, below is a sample of the typical activities that Men’s Club participates in, and that we look forward to conducting in the upcoming year:
