Temple Israel Spreads Loving Kindness
The Charlotte Observer
Nearly 300 people gathered at Shalom Park for Temple Israel’s annual Yom Gemilut Hasadim, or “day of performing acts of loving kindness,” to make sandwiches for the hungry, write letters of support to Israeli soldiers and build suncatchers for hospitalized children.
Most of the day’s activities on Jan. 15 were held in the synagogue’s Leon and Sandra Levine Social Hall. Members of Temple Israel auxiliary groups and students, parents and teachers from its religious school organized materials for participants to perform their acts at 18 different stations. Community Blood Center of the Carolinas parked a mobile unit in the parking lot.
