As usual you are pushing the envelope beyond ...Cyd,<br />As usual you are pushing the envelope beyond the atmosphere of the Jewish gestalt of today and into tomorrow. Can't we clone you so that every Jewish child has a chance to integrate Jewish values, practices, identity, humor and being into the gestalt of their souls. <br /><br />A couple of things to consider:<br />1. The cracks in the commitment to mid-week Hebrew School are already present and getting wider.<br />2. Shalom Learning and other mixed in person and on-line havurah style learning options provided by third parties for the whole family are in ascendance and will challenge synagogues to provide more innovative educational experiences. <br />3. Camp and Youth Group provide community, and focus on being and doing Jewish together. Meshiach is waiting in the wings until the liberal movements can figure out how to integrate their camping and youth group experiences with their campers/youth groupies lives year round.<br />4. The new generation of 30 somethings is so used to having everything provided for no or little cost. This will present synagogues with a huge challenge to attract and retain committed members thus threatening their economic viability.<br />5. You do amazing work and we are blessed to have you as our leader and chief protagonist for the sake of a great Jewish future.<br /><br />With great appreciation and respect,<br /><br />Alan Caro <br />Alan Carohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03032652449550751877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1844366543088143167.post-26921567009674359692013-02-06T16:02:47.225-08:002013-02-06T16:02:47.225-08:00Cyd, it's lovely to see how your life work has...Cyd, it's lovely to see how your life work has unfolded, especially given that we were Bat Mitzvahed together a few years ago...Yasher Koach, Joanne Cohen-KatzAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
