Welcome New Members The HPCT-CAE community is happy to

welcome its newest member:

Phil Pasmanik resides in Edison. He is the father of two grown sons and is an accountant. David and Devora Schiff join our Temple family along with their three children, Ezra, Sam and Joe. They live in Highland Park.

Thanks to our members who participate in the Unity Bank UCare Program, the Temple now

receives upwards of $6,000 yearly from Unity Bank. This amount could significantly increase if all our members who have accounts at Unity advise the bank that their accounts should be linked with the Temple in their UCare Program. Unity donates a percentage of the average daily balances of all linked accounts. The program is completely anonymous. You do not have to be a member to participate.

For a complete list of Passover information and service times, please consult your Passover Guide. Included in the Guide is a complete Schedule of Services and Important Times.

This booklet is published each year with proceeds from the Hilton Nelson Memorial Fund and with the assistance of the Nelson family.
