Pathways
This month, say hello to Donielle Morris. Donielle began our Pathways program to learn more about Jewish history, tradition, and culture. With the help of this 18-session course, she ultimately decided to adopt Judaism and convert. She describes how profound it was to explore Judaism alongside our celebrated clergy within our beit midrash (house of learning). PAS is thrilled to be with her on this next step of her unique Jewish journey.
Weekly Sermon
Teyku
The Talmud teaches that irreconcilable differences of opinion will be resolved when Elijah the Prophet arrives to announce the Messianic age. Noting the toxic divides of our age, Rabbi Cosgrove teaches that we must learn to hear opinions that differ from our own.

On International Holocaust Remembrance Day (January 27), we call to mind the human tragedy of the Shoah, the memories of the victims, and the survivors’ struggles. We have a responsibility to remember, no less now than in 1945, the horrendous places to which antisemitism and hatred can lead. As the last generation of survivors leaves us, what names will you remember? Credits: Lyrics: Zelda Schneurson Mishkovsky (1914-1984) |
