Dear haverim,
Our virtual minyan, in spite of the circumstances has proven to be an amazing technological tool for us. It enables us to connect to our community, welcome some dear friends and family to our minyan (Bob Westle was spotted yesterday afternoon, in addition to my sister and brother-in-law… Jordana, who is in Israel joined us earlier in the day!), recognize lots of familiar faces, and share a few special moments...Read more...

The sporting world seemed to lead the way- people’s attention was immediately riveted. The NHL, MLB, March Madness and the NCAA,...Read more...

Dear Haverim,
Unprecedented times demand unprecedented action. Out of an abundance of caution and concern for the well-being of every member of our community we are compelled to announce that Anshai Torah will suspend all communal activities at our shul, effective immediately. This decision, made in consultation with medical professionals and the leadership of our shul reflects the value we place on our community’s...Read more...
