TRIBE is for wild ones in their 20's-40's who Jew together. 


Dear TRIBE,

Spring has sprung. Have you seen the fig tree in our biblical garden in back of the Foster Family Chapel? Take a peak. A stunning example of bursting life and new beginnings. I was just out in the desert this past weekend and boy are the barrel cacti in bloom; the prickly pear popping pink poofs of life!

Two special Pesach opportunities. 1. Rabbi Cantor and I will be davening together this Shabbat, March 31st and then we'll have a special Pesach lunch. 2. If you've never counted the omer I warmly invite you to count. The count begins the second day of Pesach - this Saturday night - and we count 49 days till the holiday of Shavuot, the receiving of Torah. This mitzvah is one of my favorites. Here's my friend Rabbi David Seidenberg's omer counting app you can take on the mitzvah, super easy. Need a hand with the details or want to share your experience, email me.

In case you missed it, To Live Life as a Contribution was picked up by Patheos Magazine. Honored to add to the dialogue on religion and spirituality today.
Hope to see many of you over Pesach. Lots doing. Not to miss our TRIBE Shabbat Passover Storytelling Potluck hosted by Sarah Garrick or the first meet-up of Chai Roller with Rodney & Marie!  My Pesach primer " Tambourines of Hope: 10 Tips so Passover Doesn't Pass Us Overif you need a boost.


See you soon!
