Shabbat Announcements 

 RABBI'S MESSAGE

 Make the Days of the Omer Count-Shabbat Day 11

Day 11 - Netzach of Gevurah: Endurance in Discipline

Effective discipline must be enduring and tenacious. Is my discipline consistent or only when forced? Do I follow through with discipline? Am I perceived as a weak disciplinarian?
Exercise for the day: Extend the plan you made on day two for a longer period of time listing short-term and long-term goals. Review and update it each day, and see how consistent you are and if you follow through.

Shabbat Shalom, Rabbi Cohen
