Our HJC president, Dr. Richard Meyer, in his Ko1Nidrei address, mentioned the good
in. I couldn’t agree more. Our shul is not perfect, but it is a good place to
be right now. The question 1s: where do we go from here?
The first thing for all-of us to remember — and I cannot emphasize it enough — is that
we must remain humble, both as individuals and as a congregation. Humility is the key to
growth and success. Humility is translated in how we talk to each other and in the way we
cooperate with other congregations. Building Hillcrest Jewish Center is a product of
teamwork and building Jewish life in Queens must also be a product of teamwork.

The second thing
would
like to emphasize is that being a warm and welcoming

If we were not genuinely humble, warm and welcoming, people would not like to come
to’Hil1crest or join our shul, but once they find us warm and welcoming and come and join,
we need to take them — we need to take all of us — a step further. In other words, we need

to translate the mission of Hillcrest into a living reality for each of us.
