All joking aside, the synagogue rests on three pillars: Your participation - There is a lot happening at Sinai these days. Come and see. Your labor - There is always something for a volunteer to do. It can be small. It can be a major commitment. If you make yourself available, we will strive to match you with the opportunity to serve. Your money - Some money keeps the doors open. Other money keeps the door open for others. Still other money opens new doors. Different members will find that different pillars are their pillars. Collectively, we must have all three. Please let me know if you have ideas about strengthening any of these. You can respond to one of my "ads" or just let me know what is on your mind.
