As always, if you would like to submit visual art or written pieces to the club gallery, please send a note to ~Judaism or to ~helen-namroque.

Shavuah tov,

Many deviants would like the DA admins to establish a religion forum so that political and religious topics can each have their own space.

If you are interested in having a group petition for a religion forum on DA posted in the club journal, please comment on this entry or send me a note with your ideas.

Shavuah tov,
Ami

May you all be inscribed in the Book of Life for a good year.

May the year 5768 bring us closer to G-d, and closer to a better world.

For many of us, the High Holy Days can be emotionally and spiritually difficult as we come to terms with our broken vows and our shortcomings of the previous year.

May God help each of us to seek forgiveness for our actions that were unjust, dishonest, or immoral. Let us find the strength to make 5768 a better year, for all of Israel and all the world.

"The ways of Zion do mourn, because none come to the solemn assembly; all her gates are desolate, her priests sigh; her virgins are afflicted, and she herself is in bitterness." Lamentations 1:4

While Tisha B'Av is a solemn holy day, I hope that by remembering the trials suffered by our ancestors in ages past we will unite to bring the world closer to wholeness in this day and all the days to come.

After we eat our hamentaschen, read Megillat Esther and remember:

Deuteronomy 25: 17-19
“Remember what Amalek did to you on the way as you came out of Egypt, how he attacked you on the way when you were faint and weary, and cut off your tail, those who were lagging behind you, and he did not fear God. Therefore when the Lord your God has given you rest from all your enemies around you, in the land that the Lord your God is giving you for an inheritance to possess, you shall blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven; you shall not forget."

We have two new members:
~littlegeek42
~LilyDreams

If you or someone you know is interested in renewing his/her membership or becoming a new member, please send a note to the club or to my home account, ~helen-namroque.

Once we've gotten a more substantial members list, I'll be drafting our ground rules and mission statement.

We also have a new affiliate, ~deviants4darfur; they are a new group seeking to spread awareness of the current genocide in Sudan.

Our current priorities are setting up a members' list and updating the gallery. If you would like to re-join the JCC and/or know someone who's Jewish who would be interested in joining, please send a note to or my home account, .

Please keep in mind that the JCC will keep its artistic and communal focus on religious Judaism rather than cultural/ethnic Judaism.

Have a good week,
Allison
