It is now several days after a week of Outreach and community here at Beth Miriam. Sometimes there are events that all coincide and have an incredible influence for positive change here at the temple.
We started out last week with our Trip to Israel orientation. Some 36 of us will be traveling to Israel where we will tour, share and enjoy 11 days of eye-opening and jaw-dropping (not to mention feet-hurting) touring. The group is excited, to say the least.
Last Sunday, the new Renaissance Group, the empty-nester group got started. The planning meeting was open to all TBM members and some 25 people showed up, shared ideas and have created a committee that will meet the needs and wants of this important group of congregants. Of course, the programs will be open to everyone, including non-members and you will be welcome to join this dynamic group.
Also on Sunday, the Men's Club has been revivified. Over time, the Men's Club has not been as active as it wanted to be. There were programs that it customarily did and they do them very, very well. However, instead of being reactive to the calendar and doing what is customary, the Men's Club wants to be pro-active and create things by, for, and of men of our temple who want to experience brotherhood, shared programs, family time, and so forth. The anchor committee has been put together and the new Men's Club idea meeting will be coming together in February for a branstorming idea. In other words, the Men's Club is alive again and ready to become an inspirational force in the temple.
These events show how active TBM is and how much of a participatory congregation we have. If you want to get involved, now is the time.
