As we transition from “virtual” to more in-person Religious Exploration (RE) for our children and youth, we are also adjusting our RE staffing to meet our programs changing needs. We are grateful to Erin Forstein, who has been serving as our Director of Religious Exploration (DRE) since fall of 2019, and has helped guide us through the past two years of “virtual” RE programming, even as the Forstein family moved to Topeka, Kansas in 2020.

Beginning April 10th, Erin will be gradually passing DRE duties to Elizabeth Granado, who has been serving as one of our paid RE teachers for the past two years. The transition will be complete on May 8th, at which point Elizabeth will take over the DRE position, and Erin will serve as RE teacher of our “virtual” children class.

Erin and Elizabeth have been working very well as a team these past years. We are grateful for their continued leadership, as our Religious Exploration takes new shape in the weeks and months ahead!
