On Sunday we received the keys to a little storefront at 7511 MacArthur Blvd.  We are thrilled.  After a couple of months of looking for a place in the right spot for the right price (next to nothing) we found the perfect place for Shalom of Oakland to take a new step into serving the people of East Oakland.  If you're in the area you should stop by and check it out.  Actually, if you're in the area in the next couple of weeks you should stop by and mop, sweep or paint with us.  And while you're mopping, sweeping and painting, keep in mind that we are looking for furniture...chairs, loveseats, quality children's toys, desks, etc.  We want to create a warm and hospitable atmosphere.
