KIRUV CAFE - The Meeting Place for Project Inspire
A resource for inspiration, support, training and ideas for everyone doing kiruv
AXED!
It has been much too long since my last post. As many of you know, I was working with the OU helping them set up kiruv programs in shuls. Unfortunately, as the last new program they started, mine was the first to get cut when the budget axe came. But if any of you are working on getting your shul active in kiruv, I'm still here to help, don't hesitate to ask!
So now what, you ask? Excellent question!
After trying to work with two major Jewish organizations and trying to develop a working relationship with another--all with little to no success--I guess I'll just have to start my own organization.
Stay tuned!
