                          Monday, May 24, 1999

  Mr. WEINER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to invite my colleagues to pay 
tribute to the members of Temple Beth Ahavath Sholom on the occasion of 
its Annual Journal Luncheon.
  The members of Temple Beth Ahavath Sholom have long been known for 
their commitment to community service and to enhancing the quality of 
life for all New York City residents.
  This year's luncheon is not only a festive happening, it is a chance 
for all of us to celebrate and pay tribute to a group of individuals 
who have dedicated their lives to helping others. This year's honorees 
truly represent the best of what our community has to offer.
  Fran Arnowitz and her husband Manny have continuously surrounded 
themselves and their children in the warmth of Judaism through their 
involvement with Beth Sholom People's Temple and Temple Beth Ahavath 
Sholom. Following Beth Shalom People's Temple's consolidation with 
Temple Ahavath Sholom, Fran Arnowitz became the Temple's Treasurer, a 
post she still holds. Fran is widely regarded as a hard worker who has 
dedicated herself to addressing the needs of the Temple and its 
members.
  Myron Klein, a long time member of Temple Ahavath Sholom prior to the 
consolidation, is a man who has distinguished himself through his 
service to the Temple that he loves. Mryon Klein has long been an 
active member of Temple Beth Ahavath Sholom's Brotherhood and serves as 
its Treasurer. In addition, Myron has taken a leading role in the 
Temple's fund-raising efforts and serves as the Chairman of the Goods 
and Services Auction which has raised thousands of dollars for the 
Temple.
  Each of today's honorees has long been known as innovators and 
beacons of good will to all those with whom they come into contact. 
Through their dedicated efforts, they have each helped to improve my 
constituents' quality of life. In recognition of their many 
accomplishments on behalf of my constituents, I offer my 
congratulations on their being honored by Temple Beth Ahavath Sholom.
