As spring arrives, come celebrate the heart and skill with which our members seek to heal the world. This week’s Torah portion reveals how our ancestors crafted their traveling sanctuary (Mishkan). It mentions half a dozen times that they gave from their hearts and drew on their skills.  Find out from Tikkun Olam Va’ad team leaders how our community draws closer together by supporting one another in repairing the world. Through education, advocacy and direct service, teams address Member Care, Ending Mass Incarceration, Climate Action, Reproductive Freedom, Middle East Peace and Justice, Trans and Queer Justice, Economic Justice, and Immigrant and Refugee Justice. Our newest team leader, longtime member Linda Travers, will offer a d’var and slideshow about the current Clarkston immigrant and refugee experience. 

You can also check out the teams and their upcoming offerings anytime by attending Va’ad monthly meetings on second Wednesdays, or at https://www.congregationbethaverim.org/tikkunolam.
