Shabbat Message from Rabbi Moshe : Coastside Jewish Community

Shabbat Announcements – December 20, 2024

Volunteers needed to light the CJC menorah in Mac Dutra Park (HMB) each night of Chanukah! The Eisen family will be lighting our menorah on the first night (Dec 25). Join them at 5pm, or light it on any of the other seven nights. It’s as easy as showing up, singing the blessings, and adding a battery-operated candle. You might also want to greet the passers-by, as there are invariably Jewish Coastsiders walking by who didn’t know there is a Coastside Jewish Community. Help spread the light and joy of Chanukah.

This menorah is a new one made by CJC member Mike Polom. We now have two in case we find another location on the Coastside that needs a giant menorah. Email Reb Moshe if you know of a location, or if you can light the one in HMB.

About a dozen CJC members took turns staffing a table at the Coastside Farmers Market in Pacifica last Wednesday afternoon and chatted with many locals who stopped by, some who knew about us and many more who did not. Some gladly accepted our free candles, dreidels, menorahs, and were happy to know that we are here to serve the entire Coastside.

Several CJC members including Todd Dubnicoff and Juliette Freestone attended the Mission Blue concert last Sunday, featuring CJC member Avram Frankel and his daughter Dana.
