Embracing hope, renewal: A Rosh Hashanah High Holiday message

As Jews gather to celebrate Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year of 5784, I am filled with a profound sense of gratitude and anticipation.

Rosh Hashanah is a time of reflection, introspection, and renewal -- a moment when we collectively pause to take stock of the past year and set our intentions for the one ahead.

This past year has been a challenging journey for all of us. We have all navigated personal joys and sorrows, triumphs, and setbacks.
