Todah Rabah

Volunteers do most of the work of maintaining our small community. Without willing helpers, we wouldn’t exist. Many people volunteer their time and money to sustain Har Shalom, and we are exceedingly grateful for each generous act.
    In every public “thank you”, we always manage to leave someone out, and this may be a good problem to have because it is the result of having so many to thank! So, here we go, and with thanks to those who are patiently waiting for acknowledgement in the next newsletter.
Todah Rabah to:  

Robin Abeshaus and Anna Kalm,  for super-human effort to plan, feed, house and transport the NY a capella singing group, Pizmon, during their May visit. Thanks also to Bert and Carol Chessin, Suzanne Aboulfadl and Pat and Jack Cohen, for additional housing and chauffering.  To  Toba Winston and Sheehan Rosen  for cataloguing and organizing the Har Shalom library.  To Bert Chessin and Ilana Mcleod  for coordinating the Har Shalom summer camp with our wonderful Israeli counselors, and to Dave Jolles,  for being the captain of the Har Shalom summer-camp boat trip on Flathead Lake.  To Lida and Paul Running Crane, Dev Harris Errecart, and Paul Kingsford  for planning, designing and building the new planters that adorn our front entrance. Thanks also to Paul K. for faithful summer watering.  To  Sheehan Rosen and the entire Rosen family–Paul, Jeb, Eli and Caleb– for being stalwart organizers, teachers, and volunteers at Atidaynu. Thanks also to teachers Bert Chessin and Jody Jakob  for inspired leadership.  To Kate Soukonnikov  for faithful and thorough monitoring of the info@har-shalom.org email. To Beth Jaffe, Cedar Mountain Software, and Marlene Hutchins  for painstaking, time-intensive work to migrate the Har Shalom web site to a new platform.  To Nina Alviar, Kate Sells and Elise Foster for a fitting and beautiful oneg following the Bat Mitzvah of Toba Winston.  To David Cox, Alisa Watson and David Smith for grading and sealing the foundation of our building. To David Cox, Paul Running Crane, David Jolles, Matt Erekson and a crew of LDS helpers, who refurbished our roof fasteners and sealed the whole shebang just in time to keep us dry in winter and spring. To Marlene Hutchins and Hutchins FreeRange Creative for continuing to shape our graphic design and messaging activities.  To the generous souls who contributed to our seder fund to sponsor seats. To every person and family who brought an oneg to share after our services.

MATCHING FUNDS ANNOUNCEMENT

Due to an outpouring of generosity from our community, WE HAVE PAID OFF OUR SECOND MORTGAGE. This would not be possible without all our benefactors so: THANK YOU; you know who you are.
This is huge milestone for our community, and we will need to come up with a suitable celebration in time. Paying down this debt demonstrates our strength and stability. We can look to the future with confidence because Har Shalom is investing in our space, investing in our digital presence, and investing in our spiritual leadership.
