12 Questions to Start 2008 for You and your Team
Dear Leaders,
People who practice the Jewish faith begin their New Year celebration of Rosh Hashanah in prayer and reflection. From Monday evening to Wednesday evening - sometime in October - they will stop work and spend time in reflection. Their tradition calls them into ritual and community. For some, it is a time for reconciliation—to ask for and to offer forgiveness. It is also a time for renewal and hope, a time to eat apples dipped in honey, wishing one another a sweet new year.
