URJ Biennial in Retrospect, by Jennifer Ellett
of learning, spiritual growth, and the opportunity to make new friends. I spoke with Jews from California to South Africa. Adrian made a new friend from NJ. There were classes on all aspects synagogue life, and many worship opportunities. It is the latter that were my favorites. The weekday services, though very early, were well attended and spiritually uplifting. Though the Friday service, with its 6,000 attendees, was an experience, my heart belongs to the smaller services. It amazed me to see the variety of ways that Reform Jews worship. I even saw both men and women wearing tefillin. It reminded me what differentiates us from the other Jewish movements, and what makes the Reform movement so exceptional and welcoming.

Super Sunday
As we prepare to support the Patriots by gorging ourselves this Sunday, it's easy to forget how many people go hungry each day. Fortunately, you can help your neighbors with one simple move: before you come to temple, visit your cupboard first, bring a can, box, or bag of nonperishable food with you, and put it in the food bin just inside the temple's doors. Volunteers will deliver donations to local food pantries. And they'll do so every week.
You may not be able to block, tackle, or run an effective slant route. But you can eradicate hunger. Please do what you can.
