Message from Board of Trustees President, Bill Grad

Dear Members and Friends of GRS,

It is my privilege to be president of your Board of Trustees again this year.

It is at the beginning of each year, when seeing and greeting so many GRS members and friends at high holy day services,  that I feel incredibly alive and happy.  It seems that the buildings themselves reflect the joy of friends greeting friends after a summer out of school and away on vacation.  Seeing and hearing our young students happily gathering at the synagogue again on Sundays and Wednesdays cannot help but lift one's spirits. 

So many of us gathered for our Annual Welcome Back Barbecue led by our spiritual leaders, Rabbi Andy and Cantor Sabrina, with the bonus of our ever expanding house band.  It was a wonderful evening of camaraderie, a great way to prepare for the high holy days.  And Rosh Hashanah services were as beautiful and uplifting as they have ever been.

I look forward to a wonderful  year for our synagogue and its members. 

L'shanah tovah from my family to yours,

Bill Grad
