NYC Visit- December 2023

We had a beautiful evening at Central Synagogue with sister Sheryl and brother-in-law Bill. It was their first visit in person and the word "awe" always comes to mind when you walk into this beautiful, sacred place. Karen and I always find attending Central's Services on Friday night and Mishkan on Saturday morning when in NYC so inspiring and spiritual. {Note: Saturday morning photo ... so many NYC Police "needed" these days?]

Rabbi Buchdahl gave a poignant sermon about having tears not just for "our own" but all the others in Israel and the World in pain and suffering:
