two quickies (Jewish stuff)

Overheard Thursday morning after services, from someone who comes very occasionally: "Wow, who's the new cantor?" I'll take that as a compliment. :-)

Back when I was first discussing the Sh'liach K'hilah program with friends, someone wondered if the Conservative movement has anything similar. Someone on a mailing list today mentioned the IMUN program, which seems related. Based on the sample syllabus they give, IMUN is much more focused on liturgy and related skills, while the Sh'liach K'hilah program is more focused on the full spectrum of tasks that might fall to a rabbinic assistant.
