on the book Genesis to Justice by Professor Alan<br />

Shalom. <strong>Kol</strong> <strong>Emet</strong> Cares about Your Family!<br />
Do you know a <strong>Kol</strong> <strong>Emet</strong> someone who is having troubles<br />
in their life? Or celebrating a happy event such as a<br />
Wedding, Bar or Bat Mitzvah. The Caring Committee<br />
needs your input. If you hear of someone in our <strong>Kol</strong> <strong>Emet</strong><br />
Family who is experiencing a change in status, who might<br />
be cheered by a card, a phone call, a visit, or perhaps a<br />
meal, you might first call Rabbi Cove or Bob Frey (215-<br />
493-8522) or Roberta Sutker, Caring Committee Chair<br />
(609-730-0837).<br />
