The eongregation weleomed 5776 with a moving High Holiday season during mid-September. Both members and visitors partie- ipated in engaging and reverent serviees, as always.

Yet the divoree rate keeps rising and people seem to be struggling more and more to have healthy relationships. De spite the best of intentions, we often feel resentful, uneared for, unheard, angry, distant, and /or overwhelmed by our partner. In worst ease seenarios, where one person feels fear, shame and de meaned, there may even be abuse. Guiding and eoaehing us to ward a better understanding of what is ... and is not... a healthy relationship and how to aehieve and maintain one are eo-presen- ters Rabbi Judy Sehindler and Ann Kreindler-Siegel, Lieensed Therapist and Collaborative Di voree Coaeh.
