The TBE Brotherhood hard at work reminding us all to remember the Holocaust - sending out Holocaust Memorial Candles to the whole congregation. Remembering to do a kindness requires effort.
Read MoreRosh HaShanah this week, thinking all the time.
27 ElulDaily we should take account and ask: what have I done today to
alleviate the anguish, to mitigate the evil, to prevent humiliation? Let
there be a grain of profit in every human being! Our concern must be
expressed not symbolically, but literally; not only publicly, but
privately; not only occasionally, but regularly. What we need is the
involvement of every one of us as individuals. What we need is
restlessness, a constant awareness of the monstrosity of injustice.
