Happy Sukkot, y'all.

May we be like the hands that hold the four species together, symbolizing the unity of our community and the beauty of diversity. May we serve as a source of joy and strength for our congregation and build bridges of connection with our neighbors. As we celebrate Simchat Torah, may we be blessed with happy and good news both in Israel and the U.S., and may we continue to walk forward in peace, love, and harmony.
