Cohen Family Youth Library
Thanks to a generous donation by Richard and Deborah Cohen. The SSCM Youth Commitee is pleased to announce the opening of the Cohen Family Youth Library. The Library is a wealth of Jewish childrens’ books and are intended for children to be used in the shul. Presently, the Library will be housed in the Women’s Gallery on the second floor and will soon be moved to the Shiur room. We encourage all the children to make use of these books and please ensure the books are returned once they are finished using them.
If you are interested in dedicating a book in honour of a friend or your child’s birthday please contact Yosi. We also welcome gently used books from any members who may no longer need them.
