Temple Shalom Sisterhood Luncheon & Program
SISTERHOOD PRESIDENT
Carole Flegel Hurricanes don’t build character...they reveal it. With deepest gratitude I thank the Temple’s staff, Board and members of our Sisterhood for stepping up to literally provide shelter during Irma and its aftermath. Pedro & Victor, our maintenance staff, opened up our synagogue’s doors to the community. Debra Antzis went door-to-door to check on congregants, tirelessly worked at the Temple and personally sheltered many. And this month’s “Sisterhood Spotlight Member” Alicia Browner, was instrumental in making sure the Sisterhood’s food was provided to the evacuees. Sisterhood Member Spotlight - Alicia Browner Alicia has been a tremendous asset to Temple Shalom and the Sisterhood. As the smiling, welcoming face of the Temple, she has been a critical factor in the rise in Temple Shalom’s membership. As a Board Member of Sisterhood, Alicia acts as an important liaison between the Sisterhood and Temple. She is a wonderful mother of two sweet boys. Rett’s Bar Mitzvah was initially scheduled the weekend Irma hit, but Alicia calmly rolled with the date change. She is advancing her career, moving on to a children’s non-profit organization. We wish Alicia the best, though she will be greatly missed in the Temple office!
