We’ve turned the corner into spring (well, a wet, cold Portland spring as usual) and the Chai Ho! Havurah auction is on its way. Remember to mark your calendars to attend this great event on Sunday, April 10, beginning at 4:30 p.m. Food (vegetarian with alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages), fun, schmoozing, music, and great items to bid on will fill our congregation space into the evening with a silent auction, followed by a live auction. Remember, this event is not appropriate for children under 12 years of age.
