A a festival in its own right

A day of prayer for rain, sustenance, and renewal. May peace and healing take root.

Shemini Atzeret, often considered the last day of Sukkot, is in fact a festival in its own right.

In the synagogue, special prayers are recited for rain (geshem) and for those who have passed away (yizkor).

We join in welcoming the 20 hostages home and send strength and comfort to them and their families. May the ceasefire be a harbinger of lasting peace, and may healing begin for all.
