2018 SUMMER SPEAKERS Join us each week to hear the following speakers:
The names on the permanent memorial plaques in our sanctuary are automatically included in the Book of Remembrance that is used during Yizkor services on Yom Kippur, as well as at several other times during the year when we recite Yizkor. In order to accommodate the families of those loved ones who do not have permanent plaques, Rodeph Sholom provides the opportunity for additional names
to be included on a special page
in this year's book.
Congregation Rodeph Sholom is building a new Membership Committee and you're invited to join! Together we'll get to know our current members to ensure that synagogue activities are attractive, welcoming and engaging. The Membership Committee will also reach out to new members. To join the Membership Committee please contact Lauren Prager at lsprager@gmail.com.
Along with the new Membership Committee, we are also building a new Education Committee and you're invited to join! The committee will serve as an advisory panel for the religious school and will also assist with planning events and programs for kids and families of all ages, including Jammies & Jeans, holiday celebrations, youth groups, teen programming, and more! To join the Education Committee, please contact our VP of Education, Pamela Behar at pamela.behar@gmail.com.

Memorialize your loved ones
There are many ways to honor and/or memorialize our loved ones. Among the customs in Jewish tradition to honor the memory of those we have lost is to place a yahrzeit plaque on the wall of the synagogue as a permanent tribute.
At Congregation Rodeph Sholom, a yahrzeit memorial plaque may be purchased, for both members and non-members, and affixed upon the wall of our sanctuary.
For information or to purchase your yahrzeit memorial plaque, call the synagogue office at 813-837-1911 or email atinfo@rsholom.org.
Plot space is available at the Tampa Jewish Memorial Gardens operated by Congregation Rodeph Sholom (formerly the New Rodeph Sholom Cemetery). Rodeph Sholom Members $2,250 and Non-Members $2,750 per plot. Price includes perpetual care. Interfaith family section available. Payment plans may be arranged. Please contact the synagogue office at 813-837-1911 or email at info@rsholom.org.
We send out weekly emails with event information, reminders, scheduling times, and other announcements. It's a great way to stay in touch with the community.
