ECAPS ANNUAL SOCIAL AND STUDY WEEKEND
Eastern Counties Association of
Progressive Synagogues
Bet Tikvah • Beth Shalom Cambridge
• Harlow • PJCEA Norwich
SWESRS • Southard • Sukkat Shalom • Woodford Progressive
This year's ECAPS Social and Study Weekend
took place at St. Gabriel's, nr Bungay, Suffolk, Friday 7th December – Sunday 9th
December.
This was a thoroughly enjoyable and rewarding
weekend. PJC was well represented. Hopefully, even more of us can make it next year. These
weekends are a great opportunity to see both new and familiar faces. Comfortable
surroundings, good company and good food. Educational, spiritual, and fun — an
opportunity not to be missed!
