PSA: Services at South Congress Hotel
Rosh Hashana Day Services are moved to the South Congress Hotel1603 S Congress AveAustin, TX 78704Sunday evening services and dinner are still at the YJP Tent, services on both days will be at the South Congress Hotel.
Think:
The WSJ recently wrote about the return of the dreaded end-of-year performance review. Rosh Hashanah, the mystics tell us, is the original performance review, a reevaluation of the project of creation. On Rosh Hashanah eve, the universe is in a state of “slumber” as G-d again considers if His has a desire to have a relationship with the world.
But we celebrate Rosh Hashanah, not dread it. Because this review is not an employer/employee dynamic, but one of love. G-d extends an invitation to us, asking if we still want to continue the journey of life together. G-d expresses His love for us, and in our “review” asks us if we still are passionate about Him.
Are we ready to commit to another year of being G-d's manifestation of light & love in this world? Do we say yes?
Find your way to a Shofar blowing this Rosh Hashanah. That will be your answer.
Wishing you an uplifting last Shabbat of the year!
Rabbi Mendy & Mussy
