Looking for children’s books about Rosh Hashanah
by Susan Rothmeyer 02 Sep '21

02 Sep '21

Hello! I was wondering if anyone had books that I could share with my first graders about Rosh Hashanah. I would need to borrow them just for this coming Tuesday. I’m not having much success getting any delivered to me by then through Amazon or other websites. I will be checking local libraries as well but thought I’d ask the neighborhood first. ☺️ Thanks!

Small rental needed for visiting scholar. February-May
by Ward and MR Kelsey 02 Sep '21

02 Sep '21

Friends, This was forwarded to me by my minister, who was contacted by a former congregant. If you, or someone you know, can help this person, please let me know and I'll pass the information along. Thanks, Ward Kelsey "I’ll be a visiting scholar at the Pitt School of Education. Here in Rochester I serve on the board of the First Universalist church and previously belonged to the First Unitarian Church. In the late 1980s I worked at headquarters in Boston in the Publications Office. My connections in Pittsburgh go back to my great grandfather, Oscar Oppenheimer, who was a member of your congregation. "I am writing to ask if you could share the attached notice seeking rental housing for mid-Feb to mid-May 2022 perhaps in your newsletter or any other means you think would work. I’m imagining someone might have a garage/basement/in-law apartment they might be willing to rent out or if someone is happy to have me and my cute basset hound in their house, I’m also open to sharing. "Please let me know if I can answer any questions. Regardless of the outcome of this request, I look forward to visiting your congregation next winter/spring. "Many thanks, MJ CurryMayFriends" PLEASE REPLY TO TWOKELSEYS(a)GMAIL.COM
