I am excited. Bethany is excited, and so is Anav. We will also miss being with you. We feel humbled by the trust that they are putting in us. And excited to take on the task of working with this community. Though we are overwhelmed right now by the quantity of tasks we need to do to get from here to there, I just want to take this opportunity to share with you my heartfelt thanks. Shaaray Tefila has been a wonderful congregation for me to work and grow as a Rabbi. It has been a wonderful place to visit again and again in order to pray, to summer with the whole family, and from which to explore the North Country. I have found good friends here who I will miss dearly. And I have found capable mentors. You trusted me, and followed me as I tried my hand at leadership for the first time. Thank you for what you have given me. You gave me the chance to run classes and programs that I had dreamed of, but never been able to try out. Thank you for trusting me. I leave with a greater measure of confidence because of the experience that you have allowed me to cultivate with you. Glens Falls is a wonderful place to live. And I believe that Shaaray Tefila can be a center for Jewish life in the North Country. You have dedicated and talented leaders. And you are beautiful, 100+ year old community who take care of each other. May you build on these strengths, and continue charting your path toward being a vibrant, spiritual center of Jewish life. Yours, Stephen PRESIDENT’S REPORT Congratulations to Stephen Slater on being selected as the next Rabbi for Temple Beth El in Birmingham, Alabama. We are so proud that he was selected straight from Rabbinic School to become the new spiritual leader of this large and important congregation. We hope we have played some role in helping him develop his rabbinic skills and are thankful for his dynamic involvement in our Congregation for the past 3 years. We look forward to the opportunity over the next 2 months to spend time praying, singing and learning with Stephen before he has to leave us. I hope you will have the opportunity to meet Student Rabbi Gerry Ginsburg, who will be spending Shabbat with us March 23rd and 24th. As you know, he is being considered for the position of Student Rabbi with us beginning sometime this summer.
