LocetteWarden & President.ק"ק שער השמיםCongregation Shearith Israel Montreal,5471, Lemieux Street,Montreal, Canada.All in this ancient Synagogue join in sending to our sister Congregation in Montreal cordial congratulations on your Bicentenary.On this auspicious occasion it gives us a special pleasure to recall that the two Sepharim used in your Services from your earliest days were a gift from the Spanish & Portuguese Jews' Congregation, London, and that, ever since the Sephardi Community of Canada was first organised in 1768, the relationship between our two Congregations has been close and happy.The fact that your Celebration Dinner is honoured by the presence of H.E. The Governor-General is an eminently deserved recognition of your distinguished role in the religious life of the Dominion.We pray that, under God's blessing, Congregation Shearith Israel, Montreal, will go from strength to strength and continue as always to play a vital part in the strengthening of Sephardi Judaism.Read automatically; may contain mistakes.
