IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

Dear Kohelet members,
This issue of our Newsletter begins the sign-up period for the High Holy Days. Fundraising is traditionally a part of the season and this year as in the past Kohelet will rely upon your generosity. I entreat you to give serious consideration to doing all that you are comfortable with to assist in this campaign. Our present dues structure requires significant additional financial input from the membership to comfortably meet all our obligations.
We want to be prepared for new expected expenses but also to rebuild a more fortified reserve in case of unforeseen conditions. We are already noting probable needed repair work to the Kohelet roof, ongoing building structural maintenance and increased rent payments for our playground.
Please give your close attention to this request and help to continue our strength as we pave our path onward.
Kohelet is important to all of us and its sustenance is the responsibility of us all.
Neiel

PACING YOUR PAYMENTS

You might consider pacing your payments by paying for the High Holy Days early this year, so you can start putting your pennies away for the not-to-be-missed Fall Retreat at the YMCA of the Rockies!

Proverbs 29

One often reproved will become stiff-necked,
And suddenly broken beyond repair.
When the righteous are great, people rejoice,
But when the wicked dominate, the people groan.
By justice, a king sustains the land;
But a fraudulent man tears it down.
An evil man’s offenses are a trap for himself,
But the righteous sing out joyously.
Scoffers inflame the city,
But the wise allay anger.
A dullard vents all his rage,
But a wise many calms it down.
A king who judges the wretched honestly,
His throne will be established forever.
If you see a man hasty in speech,
There is more hope for a fool than for him.
A man’s pride will humiliate him,
But a humble man will obtain honor.
