Members of the Orthodox women’s Shul Sisterhood were concerned because a widowed Shul member and her three small daughters were staying away from services.
Finding that the reason was a lack of suitable clothes, the ladies’ group corrected the situation in a generous manner; they held a bake sale and used the money to buy new clothes for all the children and the mother.
When the little girls still failed to appear at Shabbat services, some of the ladies called to inquire about their absence. The mother thanked them sweetly for the clothing and explained…..
“The girls looked so nice, we all decided to go to the Conservative Synogogue down the street.”
