Rabbi's Corner

Message from the Rabbi

It's Not About the Material Gifts
"The Israelites arrived in a body in the wilderness of Zin on the first new moon, and the people stayed at Kadesh. Miriam died there and was buried there. The community was without water, and they joined against Moses and Aaron." (Numbers 20:2-3)
People sustain us in ways other than putting a roof over our heads, clothes on our backs and food in our stomachs. People we love and who love us in return give us more than what is material.  They stand by us when times are difficult and support us emotionally.  Our loved ones give us strength in trying times and celebrate us in joyful times and when they are gone we feel a gaping hole in our lives.
