SISTERHOOD SUKKOT 2009
SISTERHOOD HAMENTASCHEN MAKING
Many thanks to all who attended our program: "Get Your New Year off to a Sweet (and Healthy) Start". We enjoyed yummy refreshments of honey cake, apples & honey and ice cream -- and a very informative presentation, given by Sue Nisbett, an independent representative with Arbonne International:  a Swiss manufacturer of an exclusive personal care line, which has no animal products, besides being kosher and vegan.

    Sue's program provided us with the tools we need to make smarter choices about our bodies and our overall health.  She shared some interesting information, to help us determine if our body is out of balance: 1) what toxins are and how they affect you, as well as how they enter the body and what you can do to eliminate them; 2) how to balance your hormones naturally and what to look for when choosing supplements.

    Click here for the PDF of Sue's PowerPoint presentation. You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to open and read the file. Download it here: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html

    To learn more about Arbonne's product line visit Sue's website:

  Happy New Year to you and your families. Hope to see all of you at Rosh Hashanah services next week.

The Brotherhood and Sisterhood of Beth Israel joined forces as they co-sponsored a marvelous kick off event...a free membership BBQ 8/13/2008 at Congregation Beth Israel....with over 125 in attendance ! It was a great chance after the summer to reunite with old friends and welcome new members. Hamburgers, hot dogs and all the trimmings were served with a free raffle. Thank you to all who shopped, cooked, served, cleaned up and attended. It was a huge success!!!

  Mark your calendar for Sunday, April 19. 2009 for a Brotherhood/Sisterhood Joint Breakfast.
