I have begun a new way of keeping in touch. I plan on posting a musing on the weeks that we do not have services. These musings may be about the Torah portion, it could be about something that has happened during the week, or it could be about something else. I will send the note to all and if you want to continue reading you will be provided a link to the Kol Ami web page. Click here for the July 30th “musing.”
