On this Shabbat Mishpatim the Torah
asks us to focus on the mitzvah that
obligates Jews to take care of their
"brethren" battling hard times with
interest free loans. Unfortunately the
front lines of the battle have moved
closer to your neighborhood.
Hebrew Free Loan helps those who
live on your block, who practice(d) in
your profession, or may be one of
your friends or peers. Help Hebrew
Free Loan provide interest free
loans. This is a mitzvah that matters.
Petoskey. Rabbinic Intern: Tami Elliott.
Monthly services at 7 p.m. Fridays. Call
Tom Johnson for details, (231) 487-1661.
In the spirit of Shabbat
