Dear Friends,
From time to time I want to list for you Jewish organizations and communities that are doing exciting things. Mikol mlamdai hiskalti. I learn from all my teachers. We are living at a time of great fermentation in Jewish life. I invite you to check out some of these new experienments in Jewish community.
Ikar A new type of community in Los Angeles formed by Rabbi Sharon Brous
Aitz Hayim In Chicago. This is a shul without a building. Read the 10 principles.
Religion Outside a Box I just got in contact with the founder of this group.
Storahtelling This organization revitalized the ritual of reading the Torah.
If you want to keep follow interesting changes taking place in the American Jewish community, go to the Synagogue 3000 website and blog. LINK
Panim Hadashot is proud to be part of this flowering. Share with me your impressions.

Pleased to have found yr blog. Read thru yr journal. Loved reading yr story about Pesach with Morie. Here in LA we have a wonderful
program for Autistic children, the "Miracle Project". It was started by Elaine Hall Katz. Elaine has an autistic son and a brilliant background in theatre.
If you would please post the site www.themiracleproject.org.
There is a show titled Bubbe Zeyde, Tell Me your Story showing on Wed June 7 and Sunday June 11.
It is a non -profit under the auspices of the
Breeyah (Cantor Steve Puzarne) and Culver City Playhouse (a theatre program for "at risk" and specials needs kids). I am on the
Board of the CCP and accountant/fundraiser for Miracle Project and Breeyah.
Please email me when you have a chance.
B'Shalom,

Yishar Coach!
There surely is someting new going on in the Jewish life - here in Israel there's an interesting TV series about Transparent Kippa on channel 8 which describes the new phenomenon of religious people who walk without a kippa and of secular people who are in fact religious. When the Jewish world has more colors than black and white it is a sign of maturity - it is also much more interesting...
