Adath Jeshurun Congregation’s 125th anniversary will continue to be marked in the next several months. The celebration kicked off at the synagogue’s recent Annual Meeting, which combined a dinner program with the release of a book of Adath’s collective history titled 125 Years of Adath Jeshurun Congregation: From Generation to Generation by Etta Fay Orkin and Deborah Tolmach Sugerman (7-10-09 AJW).
