Temple Beth Hillel exists today because of the wisdom of our community leaders of the past. Without their wise stewardship we would not have been able to survive this pandemic.
And now, as the news from the CDC and the state shows reason to be cautiously optimistic, our situation demands that our leadership acts wisely to ensure our future. We need expertise in finance, and education, and technology, and building and grounds maintenance just to list a few areas and we must do this while adhering to and honoring our Jewish values. As much as we are trying to anticipate the challenges we are about to face it is almost certain that there is much we will have to learn to adapt to our post pandemic reality.
To successfully address our coming challenges we need your knowledge and skills and talent. At this critical time we need you. We need you to help us shape the future of our synagogue. We need you to be part of our leadership team. We need you on our board. We need your new ideas and fresh perspective and/or your experience and institutional memory. Doing things the way we always have will not work to create our future. Too much has changed.
Please consider joining us. It is not nor will it be an easy job, but it is essential to maintaining our community. Please contact Linda Rose, or me (president@tbhrichmond.org) and let’s talk.

We are Temple Beth Hillel.
If I am not for myself, who will be for me?
If I am not for others, what am I?
And if not now, when? -Rabbi Hillel
