Honey for a Sweet New Year!  

What better way to wish family, friends and business associates a "Sweet and Healthy New Year" than sending a jar of honey?

This 8-ounce jar of delicious kosher honey arrives in time for Rosh Hashanah, decorated with a colorful label, and includes a personalized card reading "L'Shana Tova — Wishing you a Healthy and Happy New Year."

This card also lets the recipients know that a donation has been made in their honor to Sholom Women.

Your cost is $10.50 per jar which includes shipping and handling within the United States. We will gladly mail orders outside the United States for an additional fee.

Help is More Than a Four-Letter Word  

As a sacred community, Peninsula Temple Sholom is a sukkat shalom, a shelter of peace, for those in need of support during transitional moments in life.

Life is full of both challenges and blessings, and we are present to one another for the ups and the downs. Clergy and community members are here for you. Please let us know how we can care for you by communicating with our clergy or with Annie O'Keeffe, the PTS clergy executive assistant.

Although hospitals formerly communicated this information to us, due to current privacy laws we depend on you to let us know directly when you are in need of care. Hineynu: We are here for one another.
