Pray & Stay – Tzedek Centers

“We’ve tried everything, and we nonetheless fear that it just wasn’t enough. Now we are here standing before you with no more plays in the playbook. There’s nothing more we can do, and we just hope that you can be satisfied with what we were able to fix and forgive us for the rest. Avinu Malkeinu, show us mercy, answer us, not because we’re beyond saving, but because we’re trying.” Intro provided by rabbinic intern Jacob Schatz.

Don’t let your life pass you by. It may be that your life is not what you imagined. Grieve what you need to grieve about where you are. And then invest in the life you have and find the beauty in it. Erev Rosh Hashanah 5787

Extremism becomes palatable only in the absence of robust moral alternatives. That’s where we come in. Rosh Hashanah I 5787
