SNHJMC

Since 1982 the Southern New Hampshire Jewish Men’s Club has been a social organization for men in the southern New Hampshire Jewish community. The SNHJMC was formed for the purpose of providing a vehicle for members to socialize and have fun!

We have positive relationships with Synagogues in the Southern New Hampshire area. Many of our members belong to Temple Beth Abraham in Nashua, Congregation Betenu in Amherst, and Etz Hayim Synagogue in Derry.  We do not require our members to have joined any Synagogue in the area as a condition of being a member of the SNHJMC.

Sunday, March 19th – “From Berlin to Hamburg to Brussels to the south of France:  How my Mother and her parents survived the Holocaust” will be the topic discussed by Lilian Sznycer on Sunday, March 19, 2023 at 9:30 AM, LIVE via ZOOM presented by the Southern New Hampshire Jewish Men’s Club.

Liliane Sznycer was born in Belgium and lived in Antwerp until she moved with her family to Brussels at the age of 13.  Growing up in Europe, no one in her family talked about the Holocaust.  Later in life, Liliane’s mother told her most of the story one evening that Liliane will relate during this presentation.  Additional information will be drawn from an old envelope which was labeled, “old papers from the war.”

After receiving her Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of Brussels Medical School both Liliane and her future husband, Abner Taub, entered the Pediatric Residency Program at Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, NY.  Upon completion of their Residency, Liliane and Abner moved to Northern Maine where they had a Pediatric practice for six years before moving to Nashua to join Matthew Thornton.  A long-time Nashua resident and Member of Temple Beth Abraham, Liliane retired from practicing medicine last year.

Liliane’s presentation will be followed by an open question and answer session.

The Southern New Hampshire Jewish Men’s Club is proud to sponsor Liliane’s presentation which will start off with “Schmooze Time” from 9:00 AM to 9:30 AM.  This special presentation is open to the public but advance registration is required.  Please register in advance by emailing breakfastrsvp@snhjmc.org to confirm your registration.

About The Southern New Hampshire Jewish Men’s Club

The Southern New Hampshire Jewish Men’s Club is a non-profit organization serving Jewish men and husbands of Jewish women from all of southern NH’s Jewish communities regardless of synagogue membership for over thirty years. If you or someone you know would like to join our Men’s Club please contact our President, Paul Moverman, via email: president@snhjmc.org or visit our website at http://www.snhjmc.org.

SNHJMC’s Bruce Retchen/Neil Goren Fund

Do you have children or grandchildren who will be traveling to Israel as part of a semester abroad or a summer experience?  How about local Jewish summer camps?

The philanthropic arm of the Southern NH Jewish Men’s Club, the Bruce Retchin/Neil Goren fund, was instituted to provide financial stipends for our community’s youth planning such ventures. All that is required is a letter from your student or camper outlining their plans and the educational benefit of the program or camp they are attending.

Please send your request to the SNHJMC, c/o Temple Beth Abraham, 4 Raymond Street, Nashua NH 03064.  We ask that we receive your request by April 15th each year for consideration.

Looking for a few good men… more than ever! 

We are really short of members on the BoD.  We need 6 on the board and at this time, we only have 3.  We don’t ask for a lot of time, a mostly monthly board meeting usually a week before each event, and would hope you could share your creativity and wisdom in helping us craft the programming this year.  We want to provide programming for what YOU and your fellow members would like to see.  Help us make that vision a reality.

Our Kitchen Krew will be looking for help once we are able to have events at the Temple again.  If you can spare some time before breakfast to help cook or setup, we could use your help.  Please consider joining us!

For more information, please contact Paul Moverman at president@snhjmc.org.  Thank you!
