PASTORAL CARE As always, if you or someone you know is in need spiritual for any reason, please contact our Temple Emanu-El office or Rabbi Schaktman directly: uticarabbi@gmail.com PASSOVER Our joint Temple Emanu-El – Temple Beth El Passover Seder has been cancelled. Rabbi Schaktman will be following up with suggestions and opportunities for celebrating Passover for those who seek ideas and support. There are so many things about the current situation that we find unsettling. Hopefully, we can find comfort in knowing that we are not alone and are bound to one another and remain responsible for each other. Thankfully, we are fortunate to live in an era that allows us to pray, learn and stay together without physically being in the same place. The Jewish tradition and the Jewish people have always been creative and resilient. We encourage you to take advantage of the blessing that technology affords us to join in our many worship, learning and communal opportunities from home. |
