Beth El Jacob, the Orthodox Congregation of Des Moines and Iowa gets to take part in the Orthodox Union Job Fair that takes place in New York City. My...Beth El Jacob in the "Big Apple", "Gotham" or as they once said in the Pace Pin-cate television ad, "Newww York City?"
Yep, Iowa heads East. Why?
We're going to encourage Orthodox Families to make a journey of a lifetime. To pack up, leave the big city and come to a "better city". Des Moines is an amazing place that is large enough to matter but small enough to actually feel like "home".
Here, in Des Moines, we've got affordable housing, no more than a 20 minute commute and an Orthodox Congregation that has the ability to embrace your family and help it grow...really grow in friendship and faith. That's the Des Moines Difference.
And, Sunday we're at the Orthodox Union Job Fair...talking to folks just like you.
Rabbi Aaron Schwarzbaum will be doing the PR work. He has several things to give you that will introduce you to not only Des Moines but also Beth El Jacob. But, along with the DVD's and the brochures and the really cool BEJ magnets (yep...honest!) please LISTEN to what he has to say.
Aaron has been where you are. He is from New Jersey, he has lived in the city. He spent time in Miami and six years ago made the trip to Des Moines. He and his family made a decision to build a truly Orthodox Shul here in the Middle of the Midwest...and it's great.
We welcome folks from whatever religious background they may have. We help our families learn, live and be social. We help with finding you jobs, with a cash payment of $5,000 to help you buy your home, within walking distance of the shul...and priced between $165,000 to $185,000. And, that's a very nice home here in Iowa.
So come on by...learn a little and consider Des Moines. We need you...and if you stop to think about all the benefits...you could really use us.
See you in Shul!
