The past month has been an extremely busy one for all of our congregants, here at Congregation AABJ&D.

As the winter weather is getting colder we are doing as much to keep busy here at Congregation AABJ&D. We have had both educational and social events that have been a major hit! In response to Hurricane Sandy the members of our Shul joined together to do what they can to help the people who were affected the most. We collected toiletries, clothing and warm coats just to name a few of the things people who were left with nothing needed. We also took part in an OHEL Chanukah toy drive to collect toys for children and young adults who are less fortunate than we are. We are so proud of the response and outpour we received from our members. Our youth directors, Daniella and Dovi are busy planning fun and exciting activates for our children to …
