Kesher Newsletter - March 2016
Dear Kesher families,
March celebrates Purim and a calendar full of opportunities to celebrate Jewish life. Check out upcoming concerts, carnivals, parties, plays and more below.
Thanks to you, Kesher has come a long way in the three years that I've served as its director.
I'll be moving on to pursue new opportunities as of April 1st and, although I'm sad to leave, I am very excited by the opportunities this new change presents.
Jewish LearningWorks is currently accepting applications for the next Kesher Director for the South Peninsula. Interested candidates should send a resume and cover letter to Deb Fink, Director of Family Education and Engagement, at: [email protected].
It has been an absolute privilege to get to know this community.
I look forward to watching Kesher continue to flourish in its next phase of growth.
Yours truly,
|
