Tikvat Israel Honors Two Volunteers as "Bride and Groom of Torah"

Two Tikvat Israel members who have contributed significantly in volunteer leadership roles have been selected as the 2010 "Kallat Bereshit" and "Chattan Torah" and will be feted by the synagogue community on Simchat Torah.

Janaki Kuruppu and Jonathan Solomon, a pair of energetic volunteers in key aspects of synagogue life, will be honored with special aliyot during the Torah service on Simchat Torah on Friday, Oct. 1.

A luncheon in their honor will follow the service in the TI Social Hall. (Reservations for a lunch seat must be made by contacting the synagogue office in advance of the holiday.)

Literally "the bride and groom of the Torah," the honors as "Kallat Bereshit" and "Chattan Torah," respectively, are accorded each year to two TI members or staff members who have made major contributions to the synagogue's spiritual, educational and or cultural life.
