Rabbi's Corner

Message from the Rabbi

This week’s Torah portion, Behar, teaches us about the importance of timing. Before the sabbatical year, God commands:
“In the sixth year you shall sow, and gather in its yield…” (Leviticus 25:20)
This reminds us that before a time of rest, we must act with purpose. As we approach summer and the year’s end, this is our moment to push ahead — finishing projects, having important conversations, and laying groundwork for the future.
The Torah values rest, but it also values prepared rest. Let’s use these last weeks wisely, so our community can enjoy renewal and blessing when we return.

Sunday evening, June 1, 2025 at 8:00pm. Tikkun Layl Shavuot 
This year for the Tikkun Layl Shavuot, we will give people a chance to do some research on one superstition they have always wondered about.  It is a little light but I think we can all use a little whimsy.  
If you would like to present (just 5 minutes), please let me know.
