As we lit our first candles this evening, the warmth and brightness of their glow did not go unnoticed.
These special candles remind us that though there is darkness in the world, there still is great light and hope. I know for me, one of the brightest spots in my life is my community at Beth Am. Her energy and warmth constantly reminds me how much Judaism is important to so many. Her members are a blessing and I cherish that every day.
I hope that the light of your candles reminds you of the hope of a brighter tomorrow, as well as the warmth of your Beth Am community throughout Chanukah. May you and yours know peace and happiness.
