Dear friends,

We are in the month leading up to the High Holy Days, and in preparation we recite Psalm 27 daily. This Psalm for the Season of Repentance has a few lines in it that I invite you to learn. Join in the singing when you hear the melody at services!

Achat sha-alti mei-eit Adonai, otah avakkeish
shivti b'veit Adonai, kol y'mei hayyai 
la-chazot b'no-am Adonai u-l'vakkeir b'heikhalo.

One thing I ask of Adonai - this I seek: 
to swell in the House of G-d all the days of my life,
to behold G-d's beauty and visit in G-d's sanctuary.

Elul Art Project
As we enter Elul, the month of reflection and contemplation, we have the special opportunity this year to create a collaborative art project. At both Grove Avenue and Parham Road, we will have a basket of leaves and markers so that you can write either a 'wish for the new year' or something that you may want to 'leave behind' this year. We hope you will participate in this exciting project.

If you are unable to make it to either location before Rosh Hashanah, you can use this page ​​​​​​​at home to create your own leaves with your families!


Warmly,
Cantor Rosenblatt
