in addition to the direct service work that congregations do, we want to help our congregations be parthrough policy and through advocating. >> it's interesting. we need to take another quick break. i think part of both of what you are sort of alluding to is that it makes people feel that this enhances their jewish identity by being involved in these topics. maybe we can talk about that when we come back. join us in a moment here on "mosaic. " ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >>> good morning. welcome back to "mosaic. " i'm honored to be your host. we are in the middle of a wonderful conversation. welcome back, julie and karen. we were talking as we ended the last segment about this notion that this work for a lot of people in the jewish community, like people in every faith community, is actually something that animates their religious identity. i'm wondering, karen, if you can talk that aspect of the work in general. >> sure. i think a lot of people really relate to the aspect of social action, social justice. that, for them, is their expression of judaism. we have so many different and unique organiz

three of the modifications are for congregate nutrition programs and one is for a home delivered meal program. dos would like to utilize dignity funds savings from fiscal year 24 to support community partners who are providing services above their current contracted service levels. this year's 2.5% cost of doing business adjustment is also included in the modifications. the allocation of available funding is based on the nutrition partners service level projections for the remainder of this fiscal year. the first grant modification is for bayview senior services. bayview has four congregate meal sites and focuses on providing culturally responsive nutrition services in districts five and ten. they are especially below for their fish fridays. >> bayview has seen a significant increase in demand for nutrition support services since the onset of the pandemic and that increased need remains. i am seeking to modify baby as congregate nutrition services for adults with disabilities program by adding about $99,600 to support approximately 10,000 meals through this fiscal year. >> the second

i'm the rabbi of the largest congregation in the state and nobody had talked with me about this proposal . supporting israel is of the greatest importance to me. so i could not be stronger in my opposition to boycotts of any disraeli products. however, i was told that a newspaper would have to sign an oath that it would not participate in any kind of political action. how bad as a visa american freedoms are terribly important to americans use. we wouldn't be in the magnificently enviable position in which we find ourselves. where are we not blessed with freedom of religion and the rights to express ourselves as we see fit the i haven't spoken to leadership in the jewish community. the local jewess leaders like to talk here in little rock. i, i don't, i don't, i don't agree with. so i didn't need the locals opinion on this. i don't feel like her auntie boycott built fringes on individuals. first amendment rights at all. every now and then we're and somebody that disagree with that like the arkansas times and you know, from the position were asked in almost agree with nothing that they rig

and when we visualize inside that where the rain is, you can see there's a higher congregation of rain what's going to pass through tomorrow morning. this is why the rain could be a little more impressive tomorrow morning because what we'll be getting here is the center of the system finally. but watch what happens by 1:00 in the afternoon tomorrow you get more blue sky than anything else. and we're right in the middle of this thing. so sure, there's plenty of rain in the center of this low, but there's also a lot of space in the gaps. and we're going to spend a large part of tomorrow in those gaps. as we go through the afternoon and evening, a few more stragglers come through. we're not done with this rain until we get to monday before we clear out and we're finished with that. then there's another one that will come in here on wednesday and thursday, give us a little more light rain, and then i mentioned this to andrea when we were finishing the first forecast in the last half hour of this newscast, and at the end of that -- because our seven-day right now goes to saturday. at the en

the congregational calvinist and new england, dutch, dutch reform in new york, catholic ownership and anglicans in virginia and south carolina. when benjamin franklin and suggests in the 1750 coag the colonies should act as a unit. this is kind of a new idea and of the things that it becomes apparent to the colonies to the young republic when they're putting together a republic that you need, you have this variety of religious backgrounds and we're talking about who understood that europe in history was largely a history of greece and the recent centuries of religious warfare. they had to have religious toleration. you had to allow the free exercise of religion, and you had to enable people of very strong different beliefs in order to live together in one federal polity. and that that comes, of course, in the first amendment. but it's part of the idea is that the revolution gives birth to to because of the fact that it was obvious to the revolutionaries that they were dealing with a of cultural diversity between the different colonies and the of the dutch toleration is important there
