s part of its yearlong 100 Years
Anniversary Celebration,
Congregation B'nai Moshe
in West Bloomfield has planned two
special Shabbatot involving people who
celebrated lifecyde events at the syna-
gogue throughout its history.
A Shabbat honoring those who had
a bar/bat mitzvah or consecration at
B'nai Moshe will be held Saturday, Feb.
5. A Shabbat honoring those who were
married at B'nai Moshe will be held
Saturday, March 5.
Those who celebrated one of these
lifecyde events at B'nai Moshe is
asked to attend and participate during
morning services at the synagogue,
6800 Drake Road, West Bloomfield.
Participants should arrive by 9:30 a.m.
"Each one of our alumni who
celebrated a lifecyde event at B'nai
Moshe are so very much a part of our
history that we want to welcome and
honor them all as part of our 100 Years
Anniversary Celebration:' said Annette
Kaufman, event chair.
"We envision completely filling our
bimah on each of these two dates with
alumni who celebrated at either the
present building or any one of our pre-
vious locations:'
Rabbi Elliot Pachter will invoke a
special prayer over all of alumni and
many will participate throughout the
services.
Each Shabbat service will be followed
by a special Kiddush, which will provide
an opportunity for alumni to reminisce
and reconnect with old friends.
Contact Annette Kaufman at (248)
661-6965 or kaufman-a@sbcglobal.net
if you plan to attend.
Call the synagogue office at (248)
788 0600 to find out how to be a part
of B'nai Moshe's anniversary celebra-
tion by listing your lifecyde events in
the celebration book for the synagogue's
special anniversary weekend May 20-22
or through the shul's "Building for
Tomorrow" brick project 0
Seniors Help Detroit
Schoolchildren
Residents of Meer Apartments in West
Bloomfield, part of Jewish Senior Life
of Metropolitan Detroit, have been
busy all month collecting school sup-
plies and Box Tops for Education for
the students of Wilkins Elementary
School in Detroit.
"Our residents love to give back to
the community; they feel good when
they are helping others:' said Melanie
Gorman, program coordinator.
"Meer residents always come
through for the needs of others:' said
Fran Penskar, a resident volunteer
who helps coordinate and facilitate
Meer's many charitable drives.
"If you can give of yourself, you
feel that you are making a differ-
ence."
This project will culminate with
a special ceremony on Jan. 11 when
some of the children from Wilkins
will come to Meer with their princi-
pal, Yvonne Stokes. Meer residents will
present the students with the school
supplies and Box Tops they have col-
lected. The residents and the children
will have an opportunity to get to
know each other over refreshments.
"We have done many charitable
drives in the past, but there is some-
thing very special about being able to
get to know the people that you are
helping:' Gorman said.
