AM
HATORAH CONGREGATION
PICTURES FROM FIRST
ANNUAL DINNER
On May 11, 2003, Am HaTorah held its first annual dinner. The congregation honored (1) Norman and Roslyn Joffe, who have been active in the shul since its early days and done much to contribute towards its development and growth, from making calls to arrange minyanim to coordinating with the upkeep of the shul to hosting services in their home (to name just a few examples); and (2) Rabbi Yitzchok Brandriss, the first rabbi of the congregation (from 1997-2000).
The congregation is currently in the process of arranging its second annual dinner, scheduled for June 6, 2004.
The following pictures are provided through the curtesy and generosity of Benyamin Fleischman of Fleischman Fotography and Video in Baltimore, Maryland (http://www.fotography.com, 410-415-6005). You may contact him to order prints of these or the other pictures taken at the dinner.
