Temple Beth Israel makes appeal
TEMPLE BETH ISRAEL
VICTORIAN BUSHFIRE RESPONSE
Alongside all Victorians, the TBI community has been affected by the tragedy which swept through Victoria over this past weekend. We have checked with all members of Temple Beth Israel residing in areas which have been affected by the fires and we are thankful that all have survived
without injury or loss of life.
The outpourings of compassion have been heartfelt and overwhelming.
The TBI office has taken countless enquiries from members
asking how they can help. Here are our suggestions:
TBI and the JCCV invite the whole Victorian Jewish Community to a
SERVICE FOR THE BUSHFIRE VICTIMS
This Friday, 13 February at 6:15 pm
At Temple Beth Israel, 76 Alma Road, St Kilda
In partnership with the JCCV
Our erev Shabbat service will be specially dedicated to those
affected by this ongoing tragedy.
Kaddish will be said in remembrance of those who lost their lives.
Please bring donations with you.
