Of Note

having you return soon and often!
Welcome to our newest members, Patrice and Glenn Spitz and their
children Benjamin and Juliet! They now have two loving homes, as
members of Nevei Kodesh and associate members of Pardes Levavot. And
Patrice is in the ALEPH Rabbinic Pastor program. Please welcome them to
Pardes!
Thank you to Myra Tuckerman and Vicki Penna for providing the oneg
