Recap newsletter from meeting 5:


Recap newsletter from meeting 5:
                This month we met at the Jewish Community Center in the South Hills. As always, we started off with pizza and then we were introduced to Tal Gale, the educational director and a very special part of the Diller organization. Next, we worked on our version of the Diller flag that every cohort of every group has. It is based on the Star of David and six words that we have decided as a group represent us and the Diller experience. After that, we did an activity designed by two of the teen fellows, Asher Wiseman and Noah Gup, about the Jewish perspective on protesting in a non-violent way and comparing it to our own beliefs. Then, we talked about our community service projects highlighting the areas we need to work on while conferencing with other groups. Finally, we have our usual end of the meeting ma'agal, which emphasizes both the good parts and less good parts of that meeting. Overall, it was a really good and interesting meeting.
