   Sukkot: The Full Range Of Harvest Emotions

   Heaven-commanded all Israel - even orphans and widows in our midst - to be "altogether joyful" during the holiday of Sukkot. Yet, certain realities of human life in the real world affect how to live in a healthy way into this commandment. It is worth thinking through carefully - and so we do, as best we can. May it all be for shalom! Hag Sameakh!

   Hearing

   "Accepting the Lord" (Psalm 2 & Psalm 24) involves exactly that: we come to be "saved" (in right standing with God) when we "accept (God as) The Lord" of our lives. We live in a genuine 1-on-1 Theocracy, not merely in theory. We cannot obey our King until we hear him. Somehow, some way, we need to come know we have "shema'd" (heard) so we can "shema" (obey). We explore our relationship with God and with the Atoning Messiah in some depth this way today. May it be for shalom!

   Two Leaders Sharing (Abbreviated Service)

   Since there was a mini-service on 16 May with the rabbi absent, and no service on 23 May due to Memorial Day – we offer this in place of the usual sermons. Trustee Sherry Shieh shares some Scripture, prayers and thoughts on Jerusalem Day; and Elder Scott Poticha shares a brief "drasha" entitled, "Names," pondering the week's Torah portion, "Ba-Midbar." Shavuah tov & shalom!
