WELCOMING SHABBAT

Shabbat is more than a day of refraining from worldly activity.

When experienced to its spiritual fullest, its holiness enlightens all other days of the week.

We invite you to enhance your Shabbat with these words of Torah.

Making the Count of Our Days Count

Making the Count of Our Days Count

Perlberger, Hanna
November 13, 2020

“There is a mystical idea that our days on earth will ultimately be comprised of the garments that clothe our soul after we die. These garments are those of ‘thought,’ ‘speech’ and ‘action.’ The quality of these garments will not be determined by the years of our life, but by the ‘life in our years.’ In other words, we stitch together these holy garments from our good deeds (our mitzvot) and the moments we create that we endow with the quality of ultimate meaning, and therefore, infinite reality.”
