A Message From Pacific District Co-Presidents
Flo Cohen and Lillian Silver
​

​We are very honored and grateful to have been installed as the new co-presidents of our District. 
​
We are here because someone invited us to do something small with Sisterhood. Little by little, we became more involved – we were invited to an area event, a convention, and a WRJ gathering. When someone you trust sees your potential and says they believe in you, that you are the exact person that they need – it opens up a path and inspires you.
​
You inspire us through all that you do and make us want to help lift up your voices as we enter this new term.
​
Our worlds are dramatically changing. And our communal Jewish community needs to respond to the changes. – just think about when you were a child-
What did your phone look like? What could it do? What can it do today? For some- that phone has become their entire world- everything seems to be available on the internet.
​
Well, not everything-we were created as social beings. We need community-even to follow the rules God envisioned – worship together, taking care of our neighbors, building safe spaces where we can thrive.
​
For WRJ Pacific District, it begins with understanding that each of us has a voice that we can use to create a new cohesive vision of the future, that engages everyone as we build community and strengthen our sense of sisterhood, throughout the District.
​
We need to keep learning, keep exploring, keep talking to one another, and especially, keep listening. That means we need all of you- share your ideas, volunteer for a District Committee, invite a District Speaker, share the Chai Line with friends, talk to your Area Director. Let us start a new dialogue about possibilities. 
​
Your voice is powerful – we want to listen.
​
