MAZAL TOV, MAZAL TOV!
Dan ('00) and Atara ('01) have been very
dedicated and involved students at Shabbos House, and in the UAlbany Jewish
Community. It is truly a great honor and pleasure to be able to celebrate
the Simcha on their children's Brit at Shabbos House!
The Brit Milah was held
in Shabbos House, during the last daylight hours towards the evening. The
house was filled with family (Rochester, Brooklyn and beyond) community
friends and students, as well as alumni who returned to celebrate this
joyous occasion.
Following the Brit Milah
itself, everyone enjoyed a spread of deli, salads and delicious homemade
cakes and cookies by Mrs. Marzouk (Sr.) from Rochester NY.
Mazal Tov to the entire
mishpacha, the SUNY Albany student community, and the 'downtown' community
where Dan and Atara have their home and are active members. May these little
twins be a great source of Nachas! |
