A Message From Our President

Greetings to all,

What is wrong with this picture? As I write this article, it’s almost the end of May. I’m sitting in my living room, sipping tea in front of a roaring fire. As Debby says, it’s May and we’re in February. Yes, it’s just another day in these weird times in which we’re living.

I was honored to attend Ruben Falcon’s Bar Mitzvah a couple of weeks ago. He did a wonderful job conducting the service. Although only a few of us were in attendance, there was a warm feeling in the Temple. It was reassuring and inspiring that happy occasions such as Ruben’s Bar Mitzvah continue to take place.

Looking ahead, Rabbi Liebowitz and the Board are beginning to discuss plans for the High Holidays. As you may imagine, with all of the unknowns, it’s a challenging process. Like many of you, our hope is to come together in the Temple to pray, congregate, and celebrate the holidays. However, if that’s not possible, Rabbi Liebowitz will lead us in meaningful and spiritual services virtually. We will keep you posted on that front.

I look forward to seeing everyone again soon. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to reach out to Rabbi Liebowitz, any Board member, or me with questions, concerns, or ideas!

Stay safe!

Sandy
