Congregational Meeting: Rabbi's Contract Ratification
Wednesday, Jan 8th 6:15p to 7:15pBefore the High Holidays, we had a “special congregational meeting” to approve Rabbi Greyber’s next contract…but…we did not quite have a quorum to ratify it so we get to try again! This time the meeting will be held on Wednesday, January 8, 2025 from 6:15 to 7:15 p.m. in-person at Beth El and by Zoom immediately before the regularly scheduled January Board meeting. This is the only business that will be conducted at this “special congregational meeting”, and for your convenience, there will be more than one opportunity during the hour to ask questions and vote such that your attendance is not needed the entire hour.
