From the Rabbi

It’s been an amazing 50 days since the start of Elul. Selichot, Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur and Sukkot were celebrated in fine style, filled with spirit and spirituality. Tonight starts the very last days of the yom tov season – Shmini Atzeret and Simchat Torah. These are truly joyous days and we have a lot going on for everyone. See below for all details.

As you know, our synagogue participated in the Mizrachi Simchat Torah Project. We commissioned a special Torah Cover in memory of Amit Shahar, a soldier who was killed by Hamas terrorists, and it is a beautiful cover. We will be dedicating the Torah Cover at Yizkor on Thursday (approximately 10:40 AM). The project was supported by a number of generous families in our congregation and their names will be mentioned as part of the dedication service. I will be speaking about the soldier whose name is on the Torah cover. We hope you will join us.

Chag sameach...and Shabbat Shalom.

See you in Shul!
