We mourn the tragic loss and brutal murders of Israeli hostages Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Eden Yerushalmi, Carmel Gat, Almog Sarusi, Alex Lobanov, and Ori Danino.
Hersh and his family have deep, multi-generational ties to the Conservative/Masorti Movement. We offer our prayers, comfort, and strength to Rachel, Jon, their family, and to the families of all those whose lives were taken and those still being held hostage by Hamas.
Our Rabbinical Assembly expresses our relief that former President Trump was not seriously injured in the shooting at his rally and our deep grief at the death of one of the attendees.
Said Rabbi Shimon ben Yochai, Great is peace for all the blessings are included in it. (Psalms 29:11): “May God grant strength to God’s people; may God grant God’s people peace.” [Leviticus Rabbah 9:9]
