Shabbat of Memory

Shabbat of Memory

Saturday, 28 August, 2021 • 20 Elul 5781
9:30 AM – 12:00 PM 47 Glenbrook Avenue

We’re all excited and grateful that our shul can again open its doors for our community. But in the excitement of the moment, it’s important to remember that much has happened over the last year and a half, and we were not able to stand together and support each other. Many of our families have lost loved ones, and we lost friends and familiar faces that will be dearly missed. In Judaism, we have commandments to remember some things, and we have commandments to build memories of others. As we open our doors, on August 28, I would like to personally invite you to join us in our first Shabbat service together, a Shabbat of Memory. On August 28, at 9:30 am, we will devote our hearts and prayers to the challenge of a year when we needed so much to connect, but were told to stay apart. It is time to stand together and begin to build the memories of blessings that sustain us. Please join me as we begin the journey of community memory for each unique individual who now sits in our hearts.
