we are definitely in the same frame of mind as you are. We have belonged to BS for 35 years and cannot imagine not having a cantor. There is a warmness of the service that would be destroyed

In the event that this petion fails to get the required number of signatures to force the special meeting, I will be happy to bring it up during the annual congregation meeting held in late April/early May.

Agree the congregation needs to be heard on something this important.

We agree that this must be brought up at a congegational meeting. Having a cantor at CBS during all the services is what we would like, not just for holidays and special times. The warmth of the chanting by a cantor just adds to the whole experience.

It's clear that the congregation must have a voice in this matter. A special meeting of the congregation is urgently needed.

This would be a rare opportunity to let the Board know how the congregation really feels about an important issue, By all means, we need this.

Searching does not mean that a contract is offerred. I don't understand delaying the search.

We hope the Special Meeting of the Congregation will get formally scheduled without delay---ideally before this petition attracts the required minimum number of signatures.

This should be a congregational decision not one of just the Board.
