Professional
Services Database
CKH
has always
emphasized the
importance of community. At the request
of Rabbi Baker, Misha ben-David is assembling a roster of CKH members
and their
professional skills. We specifically seek those with human services
skills and training; such as physicians, psychotherapists, social
workers, counselors, etc. By having this information at hand, you
will
have some excellent choices from within the CKH community when you seek
professional services. There may also be rare occasions where it would
be helpful to call on you in an emergency situation. If you would
please take a moment to email Chaplain
Misha ben-David <mbd@austin.rr.com>, you would be performing
a mitzvahs that will benefit the entire congregation.

In
the Community
The Jewish Community
Association of Austin has several events in April commemorating Yom
Hashoah and raising awareness of genocide today. This year, Yom
Hashoah is on Tuesday, April 25th. JCAA is sponsoring "Rally
for Darfur" on Sunday, April 30th. For more information on
these
events, see JCAA's Events
Web Page.
Darfur: Instead of mourning a genocide, what if we could
STOP
one? Come on Sunday, April 23rd at 3pm to Congregation Beth
Israel
for an interfaith gathering. Hear Brian Steidle, a former
Marine
Captain and an American observer to the African Union peacekeeping
force in Darfur, Sudan. Mr. Steidle is traveling through the Save
Darfur Coalition's Million Voices for Darfur campaign, a campaign
to have one million post cards sent to the President asking elected
officials to do more to end this genocide. Post cards will be
available that you can sign and send in. For more information on
the
Save Darfur campaign, you can go to http://www.savedarfur.org/.
