Mazal Tov to one of our Mensches!

Jan 06, 2012 | The Wire

Jonathan Boyer, one of our many Federation staff “mensches,” was just recognized by The Jewish Journal on its annual Mensch List! We congratulate Jonathan, and all the honorees.

"Jonathan Boyer may be the Happy Minyan’s unsung hero, though he’s more than happy to sing the shul’s praises. The Shlomo Carlebach-inspired synagogue was launched some 17 years ago to answer the need for an aufruf for a friend of Boyer’s who was unaffiliated at the time. A small circle of friends, all unattached to synagogues, rented a room from Beth Jacob Congregation for their service, thereby, unknowingly, giving birth to the Happy Minyan."
