Rabbi Elliott will be leading a workshop on conducting one-on-one, or relational, meetings. One-on-ones give us a way of getting to know each other better by hearing one another's stories--the experiences that have led each of us to value justice personally. This is an opportunity to become involved with the one-on-one campaign BK is launching as a way of building connections within the congregation and with other congregations in Montclair. As we become more closely connected, we build a trust and understanding that enable us to work together for social justice. And we start to identify and develop new leaders within our community. RSVP to the BK office if you plan to attend. | ||
