Shalom My Gantseh
Megillah Family and Friends. Welcome
to Issue #286 of the Weekly Gantseh
Megillah.
It is a pleasure to return to publishing the Weekly
Megillah after a being away for so long. Although I am still slowly
recovering, I am at a stage in the healing process that enables me, with
Arnold's assistance, to move forward with publishing the Weekly Megillah
through the summer months.
Please remember that we have lost quite a bit of income since I became ill,
and was unable to publish, so you can help by giving
here.
Encourage your friends to visit the
Megillah and become members of
our family. If you haven't visited the site recently, now might be a good time
to reacquaint yourself with the wealth of stories and information it provides.
Please support the Megillah by purchasing
items from our
Megillah shop. A portion of every purchase goes toward the publication,
maintenance, and growth of the Gantseh Megillah. And remember to click on
the generic Amazon.com link (
)before
doing any shopping on Amazon so the Megillah can also receive a small
commission on the sale.
Remember, your thoughts and comments are always welcome.
Please email your observations to
gantsehmegillah@gmail.com.
We count on our Megillah family members as our major source
of financial support. Kindly contribute whatever amount you can afford, no
matter how small or large, by going to the following link:

support and confidence.
