Temple Beth El of South Orange County, Aliso Viejo, CA Please help me congratulate the congregations who have gone live recently on RJ Web Builder 3.0 (a full list is always available on the help site): If you're 18+ and identify as Jewish, we hope we can count on you to vote Reform.” Voting takes place online from Januto Maand will take less than 90 seconds to participate. General text for your communications: “It's time! Voting in the World Zionist Congress Elections begins January 21, and your vote is critical to maintaining a large Reform presence in Israel and the United States! Your vote is the only democratic opportunity you have to influence Israeli society as we continue our efforts towards equality, pluralism and tolerance. The Congregational Captains group in the Tent will post the voting website and other information as it becomes available. Ready-made materials can be found in the Congregational Toolkit in the Tent. In January and February please plan to prominently feature a flyer and information about the crucial importance of every Reform Jew to vote in the World Zionist Congress Elections in your bulletins. ICS links, you can add both calendars the same way you've added your temple's google calendars.

We've set up two easily add-able calendars, one for Torah readings and one for Haftarah readings, through 2024. I will be presenting the RJ Web Builder piece and will be available before and after the presentation to answer any questions. Also, on Thursday at 1:15 p.m. and Friday at 12:30 p.m., there will be a presentation on URJ Communications at URJ Central. I will mostly be at URJ Central, available for consultations. I will be in attendance Thursday and Friday, probably between 10 a.m. I hope we will see representatives of your congregation here in Chicago December 11-15. It's hard to believe Biennial is just a few weeks away.
