About a month and a half ago Rick & Terri Barnett, Taz Mayerhoff & Victoria Ilin went to the OU communities fair as Torat Emet Jewish community representatives. Since then we have been working with them to target and invite various families to check out Columbus for a visit. This is one of the many ways we are working to grow the Columbus community. The first family scheduled to visit is the Coleman family from Washington Heights. On shabbos monring January 25th Anat and her son Akiva will be at Torat Emet and we encourage everyone to make it a priority to come welcome a potential new family! Let's grow Columbus together! Thank you for your time and support.
