"A community is too heavy for any one person to carry alone."

I just returned from the annual Site Coordinator Meeting for JF&CS Family Table. It was great to meet other people in the same volunteer role as me. Several ideas that I heard sounded as though they might work at TE. Part of the purpose of the meeting was also to remind us how important our role is in feeding over 500 people each month. We were each given a bookmark with a great quote that relates to this:

"A community is too heavy for any one person to carry alone."

- from Midrash, Deuteronomy Rabbah.

This quote sums up Family Table. It takes a community to make it work.
