Rabbi Howard Morrison

Dear Congregational Family,

With this week's Parsha of Lech Lecha, the journey of Jewish history begins. We are introduced to Abraham and Sarah, the first Jewish couple. The covenant of a people, a faith, and a land starts with them and takes us back four thousand years.

It is noteworthy that this week in Beth Emeth life, I will have officiated at a baby naming, bar mitzvahs, a wedding, unveilings, and the funeral of a 102 year old member from our shul.

While we must still exercise caution in the pandemic, it is meaningful to stand with families and our community at sacred milestone moments, happy and sad.

May we all find our place in the continuous Lech Lecha of Jewish life. May our journey be spiritually meaningful.

Sincerely,

Rabbi Howard Morrison
