Six times a year - on the second Tuesday of September 26 every even-numbered month - it's our turn to prepare and Mark & Lisa Lacianca, in honor of their son, serve a hot meal to 100-200 hungry people who come Jack’s Bar Mitzvah from all over the area. Meals are served there every October 4 night of the year, with the help of many faith Christine DuBois-Buxbaum & Laurence congregations and universities in the area. Unfortunately, a number of area shelters have recently Buxbaum, in honor of their daughter, Marielle’s closed, so the need for "soup kitchens" such as this one Bat Mitzvah is ever-increasing. October 10 Dorothy & Jason Spillerman, in honor of their To join in our effort, there are many options. If you'd son, Garrett’s Bar Mitzvah like to perform the very gratifying mitzvah of serving the October 17 meal, you do need to be available on the Tuesday night Mollie & Kevin Plotkin, in honor of their in question (the October 2015 meal is on Tuesday, daughter, Hannah’s Bat Mitzvah October 13).

Everything is usually prepared in advance, in your own kitchen, and October 31 brought to the Temple for those who are serving the Linda & Ugo Curello, in honor of their son, meal to bring to the shelter.

TEMPLE SHOLOM IN BROOMALL RAISE THE ROOF GALA

CAPITOL STEPS will appear at the Media Theater, Sunday, November 8 at 7:30 p.m. Their appearance will be the highlight of the Raise the Roof Gala, proceeds from which will benefit Temple Sholom in Broomall's Capital Fund.

The Capitol Steps, a Washington DC-based comedy troupe that began as a group of Senate Staffers, will present a show based on songs from their current album “Mock the Vote” at the Media Theater.

The Capitol Steps have been a Washington, DC institution for over thirty years, providing a unique blend of musical and political comedy to our Nation’s Capital and more. Each show consists of tasteful lampooning guaranteed to leave both sides of the political spectrum laughing. The troupe started in 1981, when John McCain was only 63 years old! Since then, they have appeared on The Today Show, Nightline, CBS Evening News and for many years in specials for National Public Radio.

Their show is constantly changing, strenuously bi-partisan, and includes songs about everything in the news, such as “How Do You Solve a Problem Like Crimea,” “Ain’t No Pipeline, Now It’s Gone,” and “The iMpossible iWatch.”

If you’ve ever wanted to see Barack Obama sing a show tune, Nancy Pelosi sing a rock song, and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie do a classical ballet, this might just be the show for you!

Temple Sholom depends on the Capital Fund for many things: books, furniture, building maintenance, and, of course, the roof. The Temple’s roof is older and is in significant need of repair. Your support helps ensure we are able to preserve the warm, inclusive community that we have worked so hard to build.

We are happy to be able to offer sponsorship for this event to Temple Sholom members at a reduced rate of $250. Your support of this worthy cause comes with two tickets to the Raise the Roof Gala on November 8, a VIP meet-and-greet with the stars of the Capitol Steps, along with having your name included on the list of sponsors in the formal invitation.
