As we enter the Hebrew month of Elul, we begin to close out a year that has been profoundly challenging for the Jewish People. This rosh chodesh, which comes during an especially difficult week, we are honored to share our newly renamed Monthly Musings message from OLAM friend Rachel Jacoby Rosenfield, CEO of Shalom Hartman Institute. Thank you Rachel, for encouraging us to find our own rituals that can ground us and open our hearts to hope! And we invite all of you to leave a comment below to let us know what YOUR book title is for the coming year, and what rituals will help awaken you to new possibilities this month. https://lnkd.in/dpMu2YyW #MonthlyMusings #ElulReflections #roshchodesh #HopeInAction
