All members of Congregation Aitz Chaim are also invited to a special ceremony on the North Shore of the Historic 10th Street Bridge from 7-9pm on August 20, with an honoring ceremony at 8pm.  Parking will be limited, but there will be a free shuttle to and from the site at the Missouri River Diner on the South edge of the bridge.

Arlyne asks for no personal gifts, but donations to the Historic Bridge would be very appreciated.

Another Eagle Project at the GFHA Eaton Road Cemetery!

This Saturday, June 18, Boy Scout Troop 26 of Black Eagle will be performing the second Eagle Scout project in less than a year at the Great Falls Hebrew Association cemetery at Eaton Road.

Wyatt Tanner, a 16 year old Eagle candidate, met with GFHA during our last Shabbaton with Rabbi Ruz, and then received approval from the Lewis and Clark District BSA Eagle Board to re-erect and repair the Southern fence at the cemetery.  This fence was damaged about 30 years ago when the rural fire department had to drive over it to put out a fire.

Scouts and volunteers will be gathering at the cemetery at 10am on June 18 to pound stakes, straighten and re-attach bent wire and metal, and re-erect the fence.  Any volunteers from the congregation would be very welcome.  Wyatt is providing pizza and water for volunteers, who should bring a water bottle, work gloves and wear long sleeves and pants.

Wyatt, TODAH ROBAH (thank you) from congregation Aitz Chaim!

Sipping and Dipping on the last day of Pesach

During our Seder, Marty taught us that many Jews Sip and Dip (their matzah) on the last day of Pesach. Apparently, those of us in Aitz Chaim are trendsetters, as we sip and dip at the Sip and Dip each year!

Todah Robah to everyone that joined us for a wonderful community Seder!

     

Happy Pesach everyone!!!

May Your New Year be as Sweet as Apples and Honey!

Aiming Higher for Rosh Hashanah

Most of us just dip our apples in honey for the Jewish New Year. At the Techion in Israel, they are aiming higher! Watch them shoot an apple with a crossbow through a balloon filled with honey!

Why? Apparently because they can.
