Flowers and Bird
Just wanted to share this beautiful painting from Reuben in our synagogue.
I love the plethora of colorful flowers in the vase.
The sweet bird with it.
The verdant green background.
The unique etched wood frame.
Very happy...and all the world is okay. ;-)

Rocking Mimouna @Magen David Synagogue
I learnt last night that Mimouna comes from the word "Emunah" which means faith.
The Mimouna is the celebration at the end of Passover.
It is a custom from the Jews who lived in Morocco who celebrated hand-in-hand with their Arab neighbors in peace and harmony
This celebration of faith, friendship, and peace has now become standard in Jewish communities far and wide.
In the light of the anti-Semitic instances yesterday with the vilr caricature in the garbage New York Times and the Shooting at the Chabad synagogue in San Diego (exactly 6 months after the shooting at the Pittsburgh synagogue), I say:
Let us have faith in the one true G-d that he will redeem his loving people of all religions and utterly punish the haters and anti-Semites for the evil they are.

Preparing Simchat Torah Dinner
It was great going to Magen David Synagogue today to help prepare for the big Simchat Torah Dinner tomorrow night.
Then all the prep.
The cleaning, slicing, dicing, mixing, laying it all out, and braising.
Then the cooking--stovetop, and oven.
And before you know, it comes out all done and ready for the scrumptious shul dinner to honor the Torahs.
I want to thank all the women and men that helped out today and many other times to prepare.
But especially, I want to call out Naomi Elimelech who coordinates everything and is the brains behind all the delicious and healthy food.
She and her husband, Itzik, who is also the President of the synagogue, are truly wonderful, caring, and giving people and a role model for all of us--and it's not just the cooking!
B'tayavon everyone and Chag Sameach! ;-)

Haleli @Mimouna with Magen David Synagogue
Praise be our G-d, the Master of the Universe.
May he bless us with an abundance of good for the New Year after the Passover commemoration of our exodus from slavery to His redemption and the Holy Land of Israel.
Blessings, Peace, Health, Prosperity, and Joy!
What a lovely event with the community of Magen David Synagogue in Maryland.
My heart is uplifted by the song, dance, friendship, and faith in the Almighty. ;-)
