Recently, Temple members were surprised to receive a certificate of appreciation mounted on a plaque. It came from Chaos Troop 1st Squadron 112th Cavalry Regiment, recog- nizing Temple Sinai "for leadership and dedication to the Troop," the release says. A note also arrived from a soldier named Samuel: "Thank you for the generous Passover care package. Always nice to get a reminder of home out here in Afghanistan. I am lucky to be on a large base and I will be able to attend a Passover Seder here. I appreciate your time and effort. My day was made brighter." The goal of the Social Action Committee of Temple Sinai is to educate and motivate the congregation and the community to partici- pate in Tikkun Olam: repairing the world, the release explains. "This care package project exemplifies that goal," it points out. "Please call 924-1802 if you would like to con- tribute in any way to this effort," the release concludes. The Temple Sinai Social Action Committee recently sent care packages for Passover to Jewish members of the Armed Forces serving overseas: (from left) Dottie Katz, Richard Brown, Sid Rothschild, Jerry Danoff, Zvi Rogovin, Natalie Tate, Howard Katz and Mike Benesch, vice president of programming.
