July Aitz Chaim weekend coming soon!
Aitz Chaim will be holding services the weekend of July 22 (Parashat Matot).
This is the first time we have experimented with mid-Summer services, in an attempt to cater to the ever-growing segment “snowbird” contingent of our congregation.
As such, please watch this site in the coming days — another virtual issue of the Ram’s Horn will be soon posted here, with all of our standard features, articles, columns and information!
