The 2024/5785 High Holy Days
L’Shana Tova! May you and your family be blessed with a sweet New Year filled with love, joy, health, insight and peace. We enjoyed welcoming the Jewish New Year together with you.
Rabbi Moshe Heyn lead our services with Sheli’ach Tzibbur Lissin Lev Chaya.
Rosh Hashanah Drashot
In his Rosh Hashanah evening sermon, Reb Moshe spoke about “Opening Your Ears to Hear and Your Heart to Feel.” You can read that sermon here or you can watch/listen to it here.
In his morning sermon prior to the shofar service, he asked, “Can you hear the children of Sarah and Hagar crying?” How can we respond to the crisis in the Middle East? Here again, listening is key. You can read that sermon here or you can watch/listen to it here.
