Thanksgiving Baskets Project and Potluck Supper 2009
A great family event was held at Congregation Beth Emeth on Sunday, November 22nd. This event has a big impact in our community! The project included about 160 members of Congregation Beth Emeth, Christ Church, Mt. Lebanon United Methodist Church, and Immanuel Church. Getting to know each other while working together on a social action project, we assembled 183 Thanksgiving Baskets to be distributed to those in need. Baskets will be distributed by agencies in our community, such as the Latin American Community Center, West End Neighborhood House, Wilmington Metropolitan Urban League, Saint Michael's, and Jewish Family Services. The children made Thanksgiving cards for all of the baskets of food which also contained a gift certificate for a turkey.

Beth Emeth - Youth Group Opening Event
On Sunday, September 13, 2009, Beth Emeth's youngest youth groups (Grades K-5) came together for the opening event of the year - a full fare picnic. The children and their families enjoyed hot dogs and burgers, music, fun and games in Beth Emeth's back yard. Families celebrated with football, Frisbee tosses, giveaways, face painting and much more. Of course the highlight of the day was the moon bounce! It was the most popular activity and had a long line of eager bouncers throughout the afternoon.
And it wasn't only the children who had an amazing day. Parents relaxed and had a chance to get to know their fellow congregants. The outstanding turnout shows this year is off to a great start, with a fun and active membership.
Shabbat Schmooze & Brew Stimulates Study with Rabbi Robinson
