EVENT 3 Each of us matters, because each of us has been sent into this world for a particular purpose. But what is that purpose exactly?

To this end, we employ a kabbalah-based personality test to learn how to best express our personal strengths while pursuing our life mission. Learn about yours over morning coffee and a boxed lunch.
