"Maybe our paths will cross when this universe folds in and makes another. Maybe, at the point when all that is and all that's ever been, collapses into everything else and is remade, our paths will cross, however briefly, and our terminus become a junction. It may be a long shot. I will take it and hope and trust that our paths cross again." -Epilogue, by Oliver Tearle I recently came across this poem and, although it is few in words, it speaks volumes about journeys, relationships, and connections. Nine years ago, Moshe and I arrived in Atlanta, freshly married, and excited for the adventure ahead. What an adventure it has been. The most profound moments have been sharing Jewish connection with you, through music, through text, study, song, b'nai mitzvah, baby namings, funerals, weddings. Living the Jewish cycle of life and the Jewish calendar through you and with you has been a deep and humbling privilege. You have placed yourselves into my hands and my care. This; those moments we … [Read more...]

Letter From The Co-Chairs Hello and welcome to Tikkun Olam Times, a blog dedicated to Social Justice. Our tag line says it all. Be Inspired-Get Engaged-Do a Mitzvah. Our mission is to provide you, members of our community, with a one-stop shop: a place to uplift and inform, connect as a Kehillah, and engage in meaningful dialogue. Here, you can search for volunteer opportunities and find specific ways to help repair cracks in our bruised and fragile world. Here, you can read good news, see inspiring pictures, and learn how young, old, and everyone in between are helping the vulnerable in our backyard.

We will shift gears in response to those changes, expanding certain programs, offering new ones, and phasing out projects when recipients no longer need them. We want to be as nimble as possible; but, we need to hear from you! If you learn about a teen involved in a meaningful mitzvah … [Read more...]

The End of an Era in Torah and Israel
When Tom Brady left the Patriots…the end of an era. When Oprah left television…the end of an era. When the Spice Girls broke up…the end of an era. When MySpace was no longer relevant…the end of an era. The reign of Bibi Netanyahu….the end of an era. The death of Moses, Miriam, and Aaron…the end of an era. In our Torah portion this week, Chukat, we read about the death of Miriam and Aaron, Moses' siblings; and we read about Moses' imminent death…the end of an era. The era of this journey began many years prior, a few months after Moses' birth could no longer be kept secret, his mother sent him in a basket down the Nile River, with Miriam positioning herself to later see him coming down the water's path. All of this, of course, a carefully planned last shot at keeping Moses safe after the pharaoh's decree to kill all of the boys born to the Hebrews. This was the beginning of the Book of Exodus, and the prelude to Moses leading the Hebrews (later … [Read more...]
