Letter from Rabbi Ross

Dear TBS Friends and Family,

Please join me in welcoming Deb Rogers to TBS as our new cantorial soloist!
Deb’s first service will be this Friday at Sisterhood’s amazing “Nature Shabbat.” A week later, Jesse Warman will have his Bar Mitzvah on Sat. 7/6. TBS members are welcome to attend that service at 10:30 a.m. And on July 12, we will have a welcome ritual for our new conversion candidates as they enter into our community. Please join us for these special gatherings and come meet Deb!

After these three events, I will take a month off for a summer break. This year, I will attend the final retreat of my rabbinic spirituality program in July, and then I will spend a week teaching at Camp Havaya, the reconstructionist summer camp in the Pocono Mountains.

Important Religious School News
We are delighted to announce that Kate Paleschi has accepted our offer to become TBS’ new education director this fall!
Jean and I will guide her as she gets acquainted with the role of director. Kate has been teaching middle school for the past few years and taught our 3rd and 4th graders this past year..

TBS will formally welcome Deb and Kate into our community in a special service in August at Hudson Springs Park.
