Living Judaism within a Jewish environment is easy. It’s understanding how to live Judaism in the rest of the world that’s hard. And that’s exactly what we’re teaching our Mitzvah Corps participants how to do.

BAMC, JPC, and H4H – acronyms of awesomeness!
We continued to spend the afternoon cutting, measuring, and nailing fiberglass that was used to waterproof the side of the house. At 4 PM Dusty arrived to take four people back to the dorms. The remaining three of us managed to convince Sam to take us on an adventure to the donut shop across the street. Don’t worry, we brought back donut holes for everyone!
BAMC does the SF AIDS Walk
Today was the day we were all waiting for: AIDS Walk! When BAMC walked into Golden Gate Park all dressed up with our beautiful capes (you heard me, we had CAPES!) and new swag (AIDS Walk t-shirts) we couldn’t keep the smiles off our faces! The entire experience was awesome as you can imagine; there were over 25,000 people at the walk!
Birthdays and Building Excitement
After dinner we had a heated discussion about out ideal communities and headed to bead early with building excitement for Tuesday because it is no longer Tuesday, but it is Rebecca’s birthday.
BAMC by the Numbers
BAMC by the numbers:
6 hours of sleep
3 hours of bunny butt pulling
30,000 pounds of produce
1,000,000 life-changing memories
Bonding in the Bay Area
Not only do we all want to become closer-knit within our small group, but we want to expand to others around us and create a true network of friends in the Bay Area. I can’t imagine anything better than serving this community with this beautiful, open group of my peers for the next few weeks.
