  • Kindness
    Jun 13 2024

    Rabbi Wernick explains: the rescue of hostages by the IDF brought joy, but was marred by the sorrow of a father, Yossi, who died just hours before learning his son was saved, likely due to his grief. Amidst these mixed emotions, the community's acts of kindness and remembrance during Yizkor highlight the resilience and compassion of the Jewish people, with efforts to honor those lost and support one another in times of crisis.
