Rabbi Shneur Silberberg will con- duct the sessions.

Each class will run for an hour. There will be a complimentary breakfast and babysitting available at the Sunday class. "If we take the time to think about how to be better fathers and mothers to our children, it can — and will — make a lifetime of a difference to our children, and perhaps their children as weir said Silberberg. Topics range from how children and parents should relate to each other to how to help a child cultivate a healthy self-esteem The Art of Parenting is designed to appeal to people at all levels of Jewish knowledge, including those without any prior experience or background in Jewish learning.

Jacobs & Sons Fellow Corporate Creative Director Deborah Schultz dschultz@renmedia.us A s, write this, I'm listening to the bustle of people crowding outside HopCat, a bar that just opened a stone's throw from my apart- ment in Detroit. It seems that every time I exit my home, there are more and more busi- nesses cropping up around me. As Detroit rebuilds itself after bankruptcy and new companies move into the city, it's essential that we remember Detroit's past and the people that put in the effort to support its future when others were betting against our city. One of those people was Max Fisher. A founder of Detroit Renaissance with Henry Ford II in1970, Fisher spearhead- ed development in Detroit through pro- viding seed capital for housing projects, wooing Robert McCabe on board to plan big events such as the Grand Prix and the Detroit Montreux International Jazz Festival and encouraging business FULFILLMENT circulationdesk@thejewishnews.com Customer Service Manager: Zena Hosley DEPARTMENTS growth in areas that were once ignored.
