“Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, people cannot live without a spiritual life.” – Buddha

Shabbat Shalom!

At this time of the year, with the hustle and bustle of vacations, children, grandchildren and family members visiting, we sometimes get caught with chores, and things that need to get accomplished…besides entertaining all of that company!

With that said, when we light our Chanukah candles this year…take an extra minute…and think about the women that you have connected with, at home, in your region, on the International level…and know that because we entered our synagogues and found a home for ourselves, a beautiful journey began.

I encourage all of you to visit our WLCJ Facebook page during the holiday, for a special Chanukah message each day.

I typically do not have “announcements”…but just wanted each of you to know that our Annual meeting is coming up on Sunday, March 5th in conjunction with PSW’s 75th celebration! Our Annual meeting is open to all of our members…so if you live in the Los Angeles area or will be visiting, we would love to have you join in the festivities! If you would like more details please email me (csimon@wlcj.org) privately.

Wishing each of you a very peaceful and meaningful Shabbat and a bright and joyous Chanukah!

Carol
