                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, January 29, 2010

  Mr. ADLER of New Jersey. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Adath Emanu-El in Mt. Laurel, New Jersey on their 50th 
anniversary.
  The local synagogue has been providing residents with a sense of 
community since 1960, when five families gathered together to form the 
first Jewish Reform Congregation in Burlington County. In 1997, Adath 
Emanu-El moved its residence from Willingboro, NJ to Mt. Laurel where 
the synagogue had its first service with more than 400 people to 
celebrate the establishment of a new house of prayer.
  The traditions of Adath Emanu-El, a family growing, learning, 
worshipping, and working together, are still upheld today. These 
valuable practices are due to the wonderful leadership by Rabbi Andrew 
I. Bossov, Rabbi Emeritus Richard A. Levine, teachers, and most 
importantly, dedicated members to the synagogue.
  In recognition to the many years of dedicated religious practice and 
service to the community, I urge my colleagues to join me in 
congratulating Adath Emanu-El on its 50th anniversary.
