Rosh Hashanah 5781
If you are reading this, then I know that being a Jew connected to JCM is a source of meaning in your life. That connection is more valuable now than ever. Meaning is the antidote for uncertainty. These are extraordinarily uncertain times. How does JCM provide meaning in your life?
It’s easy to notice what misses the mark. What’s broken. That which fails to meet expectations. I ask you to take a moment now to be present with what is. To affirm what is working. To celebrate the improbable existence and persistence of Jewish life on this rock in the middle of the Pacific.
In the next month, you will receive a survey from the JCM Board of Directors. Please take a moment to complete and return this survey. After the High Holidays, expect a personal followup. We want to know: How can JCM provide meaning in your life?
As the New Year begins in about 48 hours from now, please ask yourself: What am I willing to do this year to help JCM create the meaning and connection I want in my life? The answer may be renewing your membership, giving a donation, volunteering to lead a service, volunteering to visit people who are ill, volunteering to organize a youth group, volunteering to serve on a committee or on the board, any or all of the above. Meaningful community is something we each need to take responsibility for creating together.
May the sound of the Shofar on this Rosh Hashanah uplift our hearts with hope and open our souls to connection.
L’shana tova tikatevu: May you be inscribed for a good year.
~Sheri Levin McNerthney JCM President of the Board of Directors
