With heavy hearts, we celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday this coming weekend. While we're thankful for all the freedoms and comforts we're afforded in this great nation, our brothers and sisters in the land of Israel are dealing with the aftermath of the Jerusalem attack. So, I ask all of my TBA family to remember this and keep our Israeli brethren in your thoughts as you sit around the Thanksgiving table with family and friends. Be thankful for what we have here in America, but remember the sacrifices that Jews in Israel make every day living in our homeland.
In the spirit of Thanksgiving, and actually giving back, I want to share with the TBA community my strong desire to add a very important Board Trustee position to our synagogue's Board. I believe very strongly that it's our obligation, as a Board, to provide leadership as it relates to Mitzvah. Therefore, I've recommended a new Board Trustee position called Mitzvah Trustee. This trustee will be responsible for leading a variety Mitzvah related activities. Some examples are organizing TBA community initiatives to provide support to members who are sick, organize minions for shivahs, lead our Family Promise commitment, and any other initiatives that we can undertake as a congregation for the benefit of our members or the community.
Please contact me directly ([email protected]) if you're interested in the position or know someone who might be interested. There no requirements regarding how long you've been a member of TBA. In fact, we would welcome a new member willing to step up. Participation on the Board is a wonderful way to give back to your synagogue. This position, in particular, is much needed and will be truly appreciated by all.
I wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving! And I thank you again for allowing me to be your President!
