Moishe Nola attacks each month's activities by creating a financial pro forma and executive workflow matrix. Actually, no. We'd like to be so exacting but the actual monthly responsibilities have a more flexible nature. In terms of Moishe House events, we tend have 3 established events (jewish learning, movie night, broadmoor activity) which we each select to lead its implementation. Shabbat Potluck is always a joint effort amongst all the house members. We also seek partnerships from jewish or volunteer groups that may want to join us for Shabbat.
We definitely leverage our respective strengts and assets. Jeff Prussack for example is a whiz with flyer design, facebook event creation and general design intiatives. Jon Graboyes utilizes his connection to the Broadmoor neighborhood group to expand community participation. Gill Benedek will often extend partnership invitations to existing organizations or leaders such as with the Jewish Learning series and Sukkot Build. Our combined communication networks are quite deep in the New Orleans community.
Lastly, while we wish that we did house meetings on the same day every week, our schedules are so busy that it often becomes difficult. Usually a house meeting twice a month helps us discuss our goals, which we then continue to implement through the Moishe Nola patented PunchList that outlines the specific tasks to complete.
But somehow, we make it all work
