We pray that all who are sick may have a full recovery. We are especially sending prayers to those who are wounded and in need of healing in Israel and Gaza, and daven for the safe return of those who are still unaccounted for.
To add a name to our communal misheberach prayer list, email us.

If you have a Yahrtzeit, birthday, anniversary or other milestone coming up, please reach out!
We'd like to update our Yahrtzeit database. Please send us your yahrzeit details. If you don't know the exact hebrew date, just let us know the date of passing and we will figure it out and add it to the shul cloud calendar.

Dear Stanton Community, 
 
We are shaking from the war breaking out in Israel. Hamas has fired thousands of rockets, over 136 citizens are hostages, and over 1,200 Israelis are dead with thousands more wounded. There are also thousands dead in Gaza -- innocent civilians caught in the line of fire. 
 
This is unprecedented and the most deadly attack on Israel in a generation. We must take action.
In addition to our prayers, we ask you to consider making a generous donation to one of the listed causes.
 
The One who makes peace on high, may He bring peace down below to us, 
Dvir and Shalhevet Cahana
