Union for Reform Judaism 71st Biennial

Carole Sterling is an alumna of Wexner Heritage, Toronto I.  Carole can be reached at: carolesterling1@gmail.com.

Since my time as a participant in the Wexner Heritage Program, I have actively been involved in the strengthening of synagogue life and the Reform movement.

It is my distinct honour to serve as Chair for this Biennial – the opportunity has provided me with many, many defining leadership moments and I will always be grateful to my Wexner experience for preparing me.

At the Wexner Shabbaton in 2010, I was delighted to see Lauren Racoosin, an alumna of Wexner Heritage, Washington 03, who is serving as one of the local arrangement co-chairs for the Biennial.  We had no idea that either one of us had been part of the Wexner program.  We immediately felt the Wexner connection!!

If you are currently part of or have participated in any of the Wexner programs and will be attending the Biennial, please let Andy Koren know. Andy is an Alumnus of the Wexner Graduate Fellowship program, Class I and a former Program Associate for the Wexner Foundation (1995-98). You can reach Andy at akoren@tegreensboro.org.   It will be a wonderful opportunity for us to get together.

Lauren, I, and all the others who have been blessed by the gift of Wexner hope that you can join us.
