Dear Kol Ami,
I am beyond humbled & honored to begin my position as your Senior Rabbi. I am grateful for the rabbinic search committee and temple board who worked hard to make this moment a reality! I want to thank you for entrusting your hearts and spiritual home to my care. I am looking forward to getting to know each and every one of you. I invite you to set up a one on one meeting with me so I can begin the sacred work of caring for you all. Please come meet me at Shabbat and invite a friend to join us. Join us for a learning experience, help host an oneg, volunteer your time, and delight in Kol Ami. I know that together we will build a vibrant, compassionate, caring and deeply spiritual home for Kol Ami. In times like these it is appropriate to pause and say, Thank you, Ruach Ha Olam (Spirit of the Universe) who has brought us to this moment. I offer the words of the Shecheyanu, Baruch atah Adonai, Eloheinu Melech HaOlam, Shecheyanu, V’kiyamanu, V’higiyanu, lazman hazeh!
B’ahavah (with Love)
Rabbi Lindy Reznick
