I am so excited to introduce myself as the new Religious Education Director at Congregation Adat Reyim! If you haven't had the chance to see me at one of the religious school classes, at Monday night minyan, or at the CAR Passover Seder, my name is Leah Miller, and I am beyond thrilled to be joining your community.
I have had the opportunity to meet a few of you (students and parents) at several points throughout the last few weeks including in my interviews, committee meetings, and in one-on-one meetings with other lay leaders and families. I have spent several weeks learning from Liz, our RS committee co-chairs Steven and Jessica, and other staff members learning what makes Adat Reyim tick, and I am so excited to begin this journey with all of you.
Over the next several months, I will be reaching out to each family to get to know you, your children, hear your experiences at Adat Reyim, as well as let you have a chance to know more about me on a personal level. There will also be other group opportunities for families to come together and meet with me as well. The Religious Education Director transition team has a lot of fun programs planned over the next few months so please be on the look out for more information about that soon.
A little background about me: I grew up in northern California and moved to the East Coast for graduate school. I made the journey to the DMV with my husband Michael, who is working in Arlington, and we have a 2-year-old son named Wesley. Currently we are living in Germantown, Maryland, but we hope to make a closer move to the area sometime this year.
From the few short weeks I have been part of the Adat Reyim community, I can already tell this is a special place to be. It truly is a community of friends, and I am honored to be part of it. I look forward to meeting you all soon in the Zoom room! Schedule:
