The Jewish people know all too well how hate
can move from words to actions.
For years, the Asian-American community has
reported increasing incidents of prejudice and
hatred, and yesterday in Atlanta that bigotry erupted
into devastating violence.
The women’s Rabbinic Network mourns with
the families of those who were killed, we
offer support and comfort to our Asian-American
members, and we stand with the Asian-American community.

Today I taught an online class on the Fall Holiday Cycle, aka the High Holy Days. I did a demonstration of shofar blowing and gathered a crowd here in the house. The dogs are fascinated by the shofar but a bit shy of its sound.
If you have ritual objects in your home, keep in mind that shofarot smell like fabulous chew toys, as do scrolls and the klaf in your mezuzah. Keep the shofar, etc. out of reach of pets.

Ready for 10 of my students to join us for Shabbat dinner! I hope that your Shabbat table is full of joy and sharing, insight and love.
