Dear friends,
 
"The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”
 
Thank you for taking the first step in a defining moment in the proud history of Congregation Adath Jeshurun. By stepping up to chair your “member constituency group” in the AJ New Way Forward (AJNWF) initiative, you have helped to create the critical leadership which will represent the entire membership of AJ.
 
Together, we comprise the Steering Committee for this initiative. We have both the great honor, and the profound responsibility, for helping define the identity and re-envision the image of AJ as a vibrant and growing Jewish community for the 21st Century.
 
This is your invitation to attend the kickoff meeting of the AJNWF Steering Committee on Wed, May 30 in the AJ Library, from 7:30-9:30 pm (following minyan).
 
The purpose of this meeting is to:
1.         Formally launch the initiative;
2.         Define the goals;
3.         Discuss the project plan, leadership responsibilities, timelines, and available resources;
4.         Address your questions, comments, and concerns; and
5.         Create the action plan for immediate next steps.
 
Please confirm your attendance as soon as possible by replying to this email. (Suggestion: Avoid REPLY ALL to cut down on everyone’s email inbox overload.)
 
Thank you, once again, for your commitment to what promises to be an exciting, meaningful, and transformative journey for all of us.

Looking forward,
 
Skip and Naomi Atkins
Neil Wernick and Michele Rifkin
