Spring is here but a bit cooler than Id like it. By this time in 1976,
we had our pool open and running!
You may have noticed that no individuals were singled out for
a thank you in this newsletter for their work on events over the
past two months. Thats because all were thanked individually,
and if I forget someone, Ill never forgive myself. So, a general
thank you to all and please keep our shul in mind for new members. We need you, and all your friends, to grow.

Membership 2015
Our membership year runs from January to December, renewable annually.
It takes money to run the shul. We do not set a membership
amount for our members, rather we rely on each to give from his or
her heart. Additional funds enable us to arrange special programs
and bring in speakers and spiritual leaders. The earlier these funds
are received, the easier it is to plan these programs.
We would like to expand our numbers. If you know of Jews
who would like to join a warm and welcoming community, please
suggest Shir Chadash. They would be welcomed with open arms.

Yom HaShoah
On Sunday, April 12, 2015, Congregation Shir Chadash remembered those who perished in the Holocaust, those who survived,
and those who held out a hand in a very human way. We shared
this with the general public at a screening of the Israeli documentary, Numbered. The film not only showcases the tattoos, meant
to reduce those in Auschwitz and its sub-camps to the level of
marked animals but also it profiles a variety of personalities and
the way they have dealt with building a new life.

Celebrating Israel!
In Canada, it is easy to forget the rhythms of the Jewish year.
Although we have held commemorations for Yom HaZikaron
(Israel Remembrance Day), and birthday celebrations for Yom
HaAtzmaut (Israel Independence Day) in the past, we did not hold
them this year.
Instead, we are planning a bang-up celebration of our homeland
on Yom Yerushalayim Sunday, May 17, at 6:30 pm. We will
remember Israeli soldiers in years gone by and, in particular, this
past summer in Gaza. Then we will celebrate the many blessings
that Israel has brought upon the Jews and, indeed, the whole world.
Please join us for this celebration and spread the word. Were
hoping for cake and ice cream, singing and dancing and games.
