Membership 2024-2025

July 2024

Dear Chaverim,

On behalf of the Board of Trustees of Congregation Shaarei Kodesh, we thank you for your continued commitment to, and support of our CSK family.  This year we have come together in comfort and support following the terror attacks of October 7^th and the continuing threats to the security of the State of Israel.  Our CSK community is our home base of Jewish support – a Kehillah Kedosha, our holy community.

At CSK we relish the joys of connecting as we come together for Shabbat, holidays, programs, learning, and religious school and youth group events. This year we welcomed new members and strengthened our relationships while engaging in a wide variety of spiritual, social, cultural and educational activities. We shared many smachot from bar and bat mitzvah to anniversaries, weddings, and births.  We supported one another through times of stress and sorrow.  In the coming year we will continue to offer a home of Jewish support through meaningful, educational and fun programming.

We endeavor to keep dues reasonable and membership dues represent less than half of CSK’s annual budget. CSK relies upon your generous support so that we can maintain the infrastructure to make our Kehillah Kedosha a special place for us all.  Please consider additional means of financial support of our CSK community through Rabbi’s Circle, Sisterhood, Men’s Club, Refresh/Renew/Refurbish Fund, and/or Life & Legacy.

As July begins our new fiscal year, your account has been automatically updated to reflect the 2024-25 Membership Dues and Safety & Security Fee. You may log into your account online to pay via credit card, ACH (please see the how-to video here) or to set up recurring payments.  If you fall into the Chaverim, Vatikim or Cheitzi categories, you may take advantage of the 3% payment-in-full incentive for membership dues only, by paying in full by September 15, 2024.  You may also choose to provide additional support for CSK by forgoing the 3% discount.  We will leave it to you to decide. Payments can be mailed or dropped off at the office during office hours or you can call for assistance with ACH or credit card payments.  For questions or assistance, contact our Executive Director, Kim Beame, at 561-852-6555.

No one will be refused membership to our congregation for inability to pay dues. Please contact Kim Beame, our Executive Director, if you need financial assistance. All information is confidential.

We thank you for your continued patronage and look forward to this coming year: a year in which we will continue to join together to pray, to learn, to support and to celebrate.                                  

B’Shalom,
