Interim Rabbi Candidate Visits

The Interim Rabbi Search Committee was appointed by the board of directors of the WJC to identify potential candidates for the position of interim rabbi. Each one has agreed to lead our congregation through two Shabbat services, a Saturday afternoon adult education class, and a dialogue session where congregants can submit questions and we can all see them interact in a person to person conversation. The candidates will also meet separately with the board of directors and committee chairs.

If we have learned anything from this pandemic, it is to be flexible day by day! The Board and the Interim Search Committee appreciate your understanding as we work through this important process and feel confident that we will find the right fit for the WJC as we move forward in this next chapter.

Zoom links for all sessions will be in the weekly email or:

This coming weekend we will host another interim rabbi candidate visit:

April 29–May 1, 2022

The schedule will be as follows:

FRIDAY, 7:30–9:00pm ET: Kabbalat Shabbat service
SATURDAY, 10:00am–12:00pm ET: Shabbat morning services
SATURDAY, 2:00–3:30pm ET:  Shabbat afternoon adult education
SUNDAY, 10:00–10:45am ET: Sunday morning conversation with the candidate

Please plan to attend as many events as you can each weekend. (Note Due to the short notice of her interview weekend we will make recordings of her Friday night and Saturday morning services as well as her Sunday interview available.)

 

Rabbi Noyo will lead us in person on Friday night and Saturday morning and you can attend either online or in person, in the sanctuary. If you plan to attend in person, please note the Health Update below and register HERE. We are only able to accommodate 50 people in person per service.

 

A survey for you to send your feedback will be sent out on Sunday afternoon after the last event to all members in good standing; it must be completed by the following Tuesday at 11am. (To join or renew your membership click HERE or contact the office.)

The search committee looks forward to seeing you and receiving your comments.

Commitment to Sustainability

We care deeply for our corner of holy ground — 35 acres that includes welcoming trails through woods, across fields, and past wetlands and ponds.

We share the Jewish approach to living in balance and harmony with the earth. We do it through teaching and we do it through practice. 

Our goal is to be an organization that fulfills the Torah teaching to be Shomrei Adamah: Guardians of the Earth. Our actions have been recognized by Hazon, the largest Jewish environmental organization in the United States.
