Every year Beth David members come together to provide a meaningful and memorable Shabbat service for the Jewish veterans living in the L-wing at SunnyBrook hospital on the Shabbat closest to Remembrance Day. Unfortunately this year we will be unable. We cannot let circumstances stop us from remembering our brave veterans and from letting them know that we are thinking of them and thank them for their service. Please join us in writing a short note or drawing a picture wh...ich will be delivered to the veterans on Remembrance Day to let them know that Beth David continues to hold them in our hearts. Pictures and notes can be emailed to [email protected] by noon on Monday November 9th and they will be delivered to the hospital to be distributed by the Chaplain. Thank you! The SATO Committee & Brotherhood **Things that you can write on your note or picture.. I will remember by wearing a poppy on my heart. I will remember by going to a Remembrance Day ceremony. Thank you for your sacrifices. You are in our minds. You are BRAVE.
