Our Women's Clubs for 5769

Last week, or maybe it was the week before - the days tend to get blended together - I had a meeting with some women about our women's club. We planned out the rest of the year.

Next Sunday we are holding our first club of the year. It will be in the synagogue, and I hope we won't freeze as it has started to get really cold here, and we do not have heating in the synagogue. After that - I hope to find somewhere else to hold our clubs.

Women’s club for year 5769:
