I’m not trying to be a cheerleader here.
But this Sunday, September 28, is Super Sunday at the JCC Park Heights.
It’s the Associated: Jewish Community Federation of Baltimore’s day when we can take a short period of time, and volunteer to call our friends and neighbors for contributions.
It’s a time when you can give back to the community. We all know money is so tight that the word “tight” doesn’t even describe it for some families.
But our Associated, no matter how much it comes under scrutiny by some for whatever reason, is taking care of this community. With economic issues at their lowest in some time, nobody is expecting anything less in terms of care for our community.
So, whether you wear a black hat and have a beard or you hang your hat in an egalitarian minyan , your place on Sunday should be at the JCC Park Heights.
If you complain, and you didn’t bother to show up on Sunday, you know what, re-evaluate your complaints.
The Associated would love to give more and more and more. But they could sure use your help this Sunday.
Also, coming on Sunday will get you out of your bubble. Because one of the best things about Super Sunday is meeting Jews from all walks of life, secular, humanistic and religious. It just doesn’t matter.
With the economic safety net straining these days for all of us, it’s important we bolster our community somehow. Super Sunday is one way to do it.
See you there.
