Tribute Journal | Adat Yeshurun Gala 2025

Mazal Tov to Rabbi and Rebbetzin Reich and the

Adat Yeshurun community on our 38th anniversary!

We are so proud to be a part of what Adat does for this community, and even more so, of how Adat stands with Israel, not just in words, but in meaningful action as well.

We join with all of you to honor our members and their families who have served or are serving in the IDF.

Without them, we have no Israel.

We continue to pray for the safety of all the chayalim serving

and for the safe return of our hostages.

Karen and Mike Aron

We affirm our steadfast support for Israel and the brave soldiers of the IDF.

We are grateful to Rabbi and Rebbetzin Reich for making Adat Yeshurun a warm, spiritual home that fosters belonging, learning, and personal growth.

Special thanks to Karen Aron for chairing this year's gala. With humility and tireless energy, she organizes meals, supports the Women of Adat, amongst her so many other contributions to our community.

Adat Yeshurun offers many opportunities for leadership, and we are grateful to all who have recently stepped forward to help guide our community, as well as to those whose contributions over the years past and present have helped build the strong and vibrant congregation we are so proud to be part of today.

Mazal Tov to Adat Yeshurun on its 38th Anniversary!

We are thankful and most fortunate to have Rabbi and Rebbetzin Reich for all they do to make Adat Yeshurun our warm and welcoming spiritual home that is always open to Jews from all walks of life and as a place of belonging and Jewish learning.

With Adat, we stand firmly in support of the State of Israel and give our heartfelt thanks to all those brave men and women of the IDF who have served and continue to serve selflessly on our behalf. We pray to Hashem for their safe return and the safe return of all the hostages. We especially remember the brave chayalim who have given up life and limb to protect us from those who wish to destroy the Land of Israel and all the Jewish People, wherever we might be.
An Y'Israel Chai!
