We live in a time when the
word "love" falls lightly on the
lips, but often seems absent in
human relationships. All too of-
ten, "love" refers to transitory feel-
ing and momentary impulse.
We, the Jewish people, bear a
different message. Of all the
songs of love, the eternal romance
of the Jewish people, bear a dif-
ferent message. Of all the songs
of love, the eternal romance of the
Jewish people is our Shir Ha-
Shiriin, our Song of Songs. May
we experience its rapture. ❑

Have you hugged
a volunteer
today?
Day in and day out, volunteers make a difference. They
bring joy to the lives of the aged, extend a hand to new
immigrants, offer friendship to people with disabilities.
They are the extra eyes, ears and hands so necessary to
our Jewish Federation and community agencies.
Volunteers provide counsel, raise funds, run errands, sit
on committees, lend clerical help, stuff envelopes,
develop programs, file archival materials, answer
phones, chart plans for the community's future. And
more.
Volunteers are not always recognized. Often, they work
quietly behind the scenes, performing community ser-
vice in many ways that are unseen by the public.
Volunteers provide the special ingredient that defines
the unique quality of our Detroit Jewish community.
