"איש לרעהו ומתנות לאביונים"
"Sending gifts to one another and presents to the poor" (Megillat Esther 9:22)
This verse is an acrostic for the Hebrew name of the month, Elul.
It reminds us that Elul is not only about doing teshuva, returning to Hashem and atoning for our sins. Rather, it is also about connecting to one another, strengthening our friendships, repairing established relationships, and creating new ones.
Post-October 7th, there has been a surge in interest in connecting to Jewish identity. As a community and as individuals, we hold the responsibility to lean into this need and embrace our brothers and sisters that are yearning to connect.
Meet this need in a personal way by
"Delivering a Taste of Yom Tov"
this Yom Tov season.
Wishing you a K'tiva v'chatima tova!
