Ethan Lewis’ Bar Mitzvah — Saturday 14 October 2017 at 10.00am
“My name is Ethan Lewis and I am currently in Grade 7 at Craiglands Primary. I also attend the KJD Taekwondo Martial Arts Academy and I am two grading’s away from my black belt. I love spending time with my family and taking my dogs Izzy & Zoë to the park. For my Mitzvah project, I am putting together “Care Boxes” for the children at Samaritan House. I am collecting the following items for them: Kids Toothpaste, Kids Toothbrush, Facecloth, Soap, Shampoo, Lip Ice and a Water Bottle for school. A donation box has been placed at the back of the Shul for members that wish to contribute.”
The Bar Mitzvah Service is followed by a bracha in Ethan’s honour, sponsored by his parents Adrian and Beatrice Lewis
Chag Sameach Shabbat Shalom
