THE RABBI'S DESK
Finding Opportunities for Meaning & Transformation in (Surviving) High Holiday Services
Over the next month our Jewish community will spend a lot of time in synagogue. For some it’s the norm, for others it’s a yearly pilgrimage of return, and still for others it is all brand new and can be filled with some anxiety. No matter which category you may find yourself, one unifying fundamental question is: “What are we meant to do here?”
