Professional Services Database
CKH has always emphasized the importance of community. At the request of Rabbi Baker, Misha ben-David is assembling a roster of CKH members and their professional skills. We specifically seek those with human services skills and training; such as physicians, psychotherapists, social workers, counselors, etc.  By having this information at hand, you will have some excellent choices from within the CKH community when you seek professional services. There may also be rare occasions where it would be helpful to call on you in an emergency situation. If you would please take a moment to email Chaplain Misha ben-David <mbd@austin.rr.com>, you would be performing a mitzvahs that will benefit the entire congregation.

Haverim Ke'tanim Invites You to Havdallah
Hosted by the Kaplans.  February 25th at 5:00pm at Central Market on Lamar.   Come up to the 2nd floor of the café.   We will gather, pray, eat and play!  Please plan to pay $25 Haverim Ke'tanim fee (check to Cong Kol Halev or cash).  This fee covers material costs for the spring semester which goes until June.  Or mail it to :Melanie Kaplan 8501 Sweet Cherry Dr. Austin, TX 78750

Social Action / Mitzvah
Amazingly, it is time once again for the Crop Walk.  While our congregation is busy ensuring our organization's financial stability, it is still important to remember that there are many in our community and around the globe who lack adequate nutrition on a regular basis.  If this is an issue of importance to you, please consider donating money and/or walking with other Austinites on March 5th, starting at the Roy Guerrero Colorado River Park.    For more information please contact Cyral Miller <miller-jones@lycos.com> or 371-3014. 

New Members
Please join the rest of Kol Halev and welcome new members, David Friedman & Naomi Lyons Friedman.  I have met them at Rebbe's Tisch and they are wonderful folks who have lived in many places with lots of interesting experiences.  Please introduce yourself when you see them!
