Hineni

Reflections on past, present and future

 “There is no life without a task; no person without a talent; no place without a fragment of God’s light waiting to be discovered and redeemed; no situation without its possibility of sanctification; no moment without its call. It may take a lifetime to learn how to find these things, but once we learn, we realize in retrospect that all it ever took was the ability to listen.”

— Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks

By Bruce Tomar

As we approach the High Holidays, let us take stock in all that we have learned, all that we have accomplished, all that we may yet accomplish. We reflect on the past, understand where we are in the present and move forward into the future.

Hineni – HERE I AM! I am here in Friendship. I am here in Judaism, I am here to Mentor, I am here as part of our Community.

L’Shana Tova! May you all have a sweet and joyous New Year.

Yours in brotherhood.
