Eleanor Schwartz
Adpoted by
the 103rd Annual Convention of
the Central Conference of
American Rabbis
San Antonio, Texas, April, 1992
Eleanor R. Schwartz, a devoted and fiercely
committed Reform Jew is on the eve of
her retirement, following more than forty years of faithful
service to Reform Judaism.
Ellie

concern.

Congregations in expressing its
profound appreciation and full-hearted commendation

of Reform Judaism and for her
outstanding leadership of the women of Reform
Judaism.

American Rabbis donates 250 copies of Gates of Prayer for
Shabbat
to NFTS.
