Rabbinical Search Focus Groups and Town Hall
Dear Shir Chadash Family,

As we continue with the rabbinic search process, we are seeking your input to inform our community’s search.

We hope that you’ll please fill out the congregational survey we mentioned in our recent rabbinical search update, if you haven’t done so already.

We are also organizing several virtual and in-person discussions where you can share priorities and opinions related to the search process, including your perspectives on what you hope to see in our next rabbi. These sessions will include two smaller, more intensive virtual focus groups, conducted via Zoom, and an in-person town hall discussion about the search process.

The focus groups are limited to 24 participants each, to ensure that everyone who attends has a chance to contribute.

Please register below for the option that works best for you. The in-person session will be held at Shir Chadash, following our community’s health guidelines (masks and proof of vaccination will be required and (alas!) no meal will be served). Registration is not required for the town hall meeting.

As always, please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions. We thank you in advance for your participation in this important process.

Regards,
