Blessings for the New Year

I sit here, literally on the brink of the new year, and I am overwhelmed by a consciousness of greatness in this coming year.

I did an experiment last week. I had these wonderful insights into Teshuva and Tefilla that I wanted to share with the women with whom I am in contact. I have a strong desire to provide an easy way for us to come together for Torah learning, for raising our internal awareness of the Greatness and Excellence that resides in each and every one of us... although it tends to be smothered by our daily grind.

I have been expanding my knowlege and growth through various teleconference seminars, both free and paid, and suddenly I realized how easy it would be for the women I intend to serve to learn in this way - it's on the phone, it's in the evening, AND it's recorded for listening at one's liesure!

As an experiment, I put together this tefilla workshop as a paid program - with the following goals:
1. Guage people's interest/commitment levels
2. Make some money (;-)
and
3. Raise some ~$100 to donate to Chai Lifeline through sponsoring my friend Estee's team in the Marathon.

Well, this is what I learned:
I got some interest, but not much commitment.

The problem is, that I still want to raise money for the cause I committed to, and I want to share the workshop that I prepared with eveyrone who is interested in hearing it! With Hashem's help, I was given a new inspiration!

Ok, ready?
I am going to restart the program - combining the first two classes together on Thursday night.
Everyone is welcome to join! If you are even remotely interested in the topic, go ahead and sign up!
(Obviously, you want to ignore anything about the cost of the class!)
However, you can still help me raise money for Chai Lifeline by indicating in the submission form that would like to be involved in this important Mitzvah.

I look forward to sharing inspirational moments with each of you in the year to come!

Many blessings to each of you, and may you merit to fulfill the promise that Hashem gave to Avraham to be a source of blessings to those around you!

Shana Tova uMetuka!
Love,
Ayelet
