WHY WE LIKE OUR WINDOWS
Our beautiful Ascalon
stained-glass windows were installed in 2004 and make our
building seem even more like a colorful Jewish home than before. On a sunny
morning, a spectrum of colors streams into the sanctuary from above,
reminding us of the rich history they portray. And the windows above our
main entrance symbolize what we value most -- Jewish Community and Jewish
Worship -- even as you enter.
To help
support our community, members can
dedicate a window and have your name(s) added to the
tasteful dedicatory wall display in the synagogue lobby (note: as of
6/1/2009 the display is being repaired; you can see current dedications
below.) These beautiful
windows may be dedicated by an individual or a family or group of
friends*. The 27 windowpanes for the
sanctuary are available for dedication for $18,000 each and one of the larger
windows above our main entrance doors is available for dedication for
$36,000. To find out which windows are still available and discuss
a payment plan, please
contact Linda Eisinger, Executive Director.
