SUPPORT TEAM

Our hard-working, dedicated team supports the efforts of our Spiritual Leaders,
​Board of Directors, and Auxiliary in the following areas:

HOSPITALITY
Louise Fischer

Louise is our hostess, par excellence, who dedicates an enormous amount of time, effort, and talent each week to preparing our Shabbat Kiddush Lunches.  She plans and supervises the preparation of Shabbat dinners, Sunday afternoon barbecues, and all refreshments associated with synagogue programming.  Louise plays an instrumental part in planning and implementing congregational activities, including bus trips, theatre parties, and our Auxiliary Book Club.

 COMMUNICATIONS

Bill’s dedication to Congregation Beth Shalom far exceeds any specific title or description.  As the creator, designer, and manager of our kehillah’s website and weekly bulletin, Bill devotes many hours each week to keeping our members, friends, and the Jewish community apprised of our congregation’s schedule of religious services, activities, and programs.  Bill designs our colorful program flyers and newspaper advertising pieces and provides vital technological expertise.

OFFICE MANAGER
AYALA MARKS

It is Ayala’s pleasant, friendly voice you hear when calling our office for information and assistance.  Ayala performs a myriad of day-to-day tasks that contribute to our synagogue’s management, including: acknowledgment of donations, management and notification of yahrzeits, and reservations for events.  Whenever you have a question about The Coachella Valley’s Conservative Synagogue or the Jewish community here in the desert, call or email Ayala.  If she cannot answer your question, she knows someone who can!
