Sonoma County epitomizes this trend with a 12% affiliation rate. 12%! Of course, this is not new news to me. So why am I awake about it now? Is there a way to bridge the gap?

Congregation Shomrei Torah: April 2011
http://congregationshomreitorah.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Congregation Shomrei Torah is a Progressive Reform Jewish Synagogue in Santa Rosa, Sonoma County California. Friday, April 15, 2011. Dream Big, Pesakh is Coming. Just days away, my mind turns to the epic tale of our Exodus from Egypt. The moment that always gets me is that pregnant pause before the seas split; one can only imagine what was going through our ancient ancestors. Some took things in their own hands, marching into the sea as if to force God’s “hand. In Hebrew, Egypt is called Mitzrayyim.
