FEBRUARY EVENT
In February we get a bit more serious and discuss issues surrounding Covid-19 and the vaccine, with Nancy Moskowitz. Nancy would like to answer any questions you have, so please send your questions to our Programming Vice Presidents Karen Jaye (kjaye@verizon.net) and Dori Hoffman (dhoffman10@socal.rr.com) so they can pass them along to Nancy before the event. MARCH EVENT Don't forget to block out March 18, 2021 for our Sisterhood Seder. If you haven't attended one of these events before, do not miss this one. We won't get a special meal, but the service should be remarkable. Watch this space for more information. And just a little food for thought: Self-compassion is simply giving the same kindness to ourselves that we would give to others.” – Christopher Germer Many of us are very happy to see 2020 come to an end. While we have no guarantees, we can certainly look toward 2021 with hope and optimism.
Do you have plans for New Years Eve? Since we need to be "Safer at Home" wherever possible, how about a Zoom event? MoTAS President Howard Miller (and his lovely wife Laraine) are inviting all to a 30 minute Zoom event on 12/31/20 at 11:45 pm to ring in the New Year together. Here is Howard's message: For those people who want to close out 2020 and bring in a happy and healthy 2021 with a big noisy crowd without going anywhere. We’ll do the big countdown together. No masks required! No RSVPs please. If you are staying up until midnight, come join us! _________________ Whatever way you ring in the new year, here's wishing all of us a happy and healthy 2021, with a lot less stress and drama than we have had this year! REMINDER HAPPY HANUKKAH EVENT THURSDAY 12/17/2020 Our Sisterhood Hanukkah celebration is TOMORROW!
Thursday, 12/17/20 at 7 pm via Zoom. And as Hanukkah winds down, here is a Hanukkah blessing for us all: “May the light illuminate your hearts and shine in your life every day of the year. May everlasting peace be yours and upon our Earth.” ― Eileen Anglin Happy Hanukkah to all of you and your families! See you tomorrow via ZOOM! HAPPY HANUKKAH EVENT THURSDAY 12/17/2020 Our Sisterhood Hanukkah celebration is Thursday, 12/17/20 at 7 pm via Zoom. While we won't be able to exchange gifts, we are in for a fun evening of friendship, games and Sisterhood. Looking forward to seeing you all! JANUARY 2021 VIOLINS OF HOPE I am sorry to report that we again need to reschedule Violins of Hope. In order to have a meaningful and beautiful concert, even via Zoom, the musicians all need to be in the same room at the time of the Zoom call. Unfortunately, that is not possible now, and we must therefore reschedule. THE GOOD NEWS . . . is that our amazing Programming VPs have been working tirelessly to provide a unique and magical event for January. The date is 01/21/21 at 7pm. We will have a new flyer out for you soon. AND DONT FORGET OUR VIRTUAL HOLIDAY BOUTIQUE Finally, if you haven't checked out the TAS Sisterhood Holiday Boutique, please do so. There is something there for everyone. Just go to:
tassisterhood.org/boutique and make sure they know you are from TAS, Sisterhood gets 20% of all sales made as a result of our Boutique. And as Hanukkah winds down, here is a Hanukkah blessing for us all: “May the light illuminate your hearts and shine in your life every day of the year. May everlasting peace be yours and upon our Earth.” ― Eileen Anglin Happy Hanukkah to all of you and your families! Hello everyone!
The first batch of tiles has returned from firing! They are so wonderful! So many creative and lovely tiles! Our sincerest thanks to Aldo (Diane Levine's son-in-law) from Color Me Mine, who gave us a fantastic deal for our paid-up Sisterhood project! The Sisterhood Co-VP's of Programming and Membership are going to take a picture of the tiles and put them in a collage sort of posters, frame the posters and give them to the Temple as a gift from Sisterhood. IMPORTANT!!! You may start picking up your fired tiles beginning Monday, December 7 at Karen and Sandy's house. We ask that you call us before you come so that we may put your bag with your tile on the table in front of the garage for contactless retrieval. Fifteen of you have not brought your projects back to us as of yet. We ask that you get them to us ASAP so that Aldo can fire them and get them back to you ASAP. He won't fire them individually as it is cost prohibitive to do one or two at a time. Those of you who dropped off your tiles after the deadline of Wednesday, Nov.18 or later, will get them fired in the near future and will be able to retrieve them in the next few weeks. Thank you to all of you who participated in our Paid-up event. We had a wonderful time and hope you did too! I wanted to take a moment to wish all of you a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. While this year things are a bit different than we are used to, I know we all have a lot to be thankful for.
Thank you for all your hard work and your participation in our events over this last crazy year. Despite all the changes and obstacles we have had to face we have enjoyed amazing events and maintained our strong bonds with each other. I am very proud to be a part of such an amazing organization, and I look forward to all that we will be doing in the coming year. Paid-Up Event For those of you who attended our Paid-Up Event, you know how much fun it was. The comedian was wonderful, and the idea of putting us in chat rooms to work on an art project was great - it gave us an opportunity to talk, work and get to know each other even better. If you have not turned in your art project to Sandy and Karen, you have a second chance. They will accept your projects until Tuesday, 12/1/20, and still be able to get them back to you before Hanukkah. Upcoming Events Our next event is our annual Hannukah celebration on 12/17/20. Stay tuned for more info on this Don't forget Violins of Hope is coming in January! We cannot wait to see and hear this amazing production. Finally, if you haven't checked out the TAS Sisterhood Holiday Boutique, please do so. There is something there for everyone. Just go to: tassisterhood.org/boutique and make sure they know you are from TAS, Sisterhood gets 20% of all sales made as a result of our Boutique. Finally, a little wisdom from a well- known source: “Piglet noticed that even though he had a Very Small Heart, it could hold a rather large amount of Gratitude.” ― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh Happy Thanksgiving to all of you and your families! Wasn’t our Paid-Up Event fun? Between the comedy and the craft project, there was something for everyone.
This is just a reminder to please make sure to turn in your craft project to Sandy and Karen’s house no later than Tuesday 11/24/20. If you are unable to get it back to them by Tuesday, please call Karen or Sandy, and they will make arrangements to have it picked up. Our next event is our Chanukah celebration on 12/17/2020 via Zoom. More information to follow. Finally, HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all our Members and Friends. I am personally grateful for each and every one of you and all that you do to make our Sisterhood so amazing.
