Dear Friends,
Last night, we had a late-night early bird special: we studied Torah until midnight as a Pre-kun Leil Shavuot, since we couldn’t have our annual Tikkun Leil Shavuot in person. Staying up late to learn Torah on Zoom was out of the ordinary, but it actually gave us a sense of normalcy, even if the cheesecake was missing.
Later today, you will receive an email with links to pre-recordings of Yom Tov davening by Cantor Zim, Torah reading from two special guests, my dvar Torah, and my chanting of the maftir for Shavuot, a chapter 3 of Ruth, and the haftarah for the second day of Yom Tov. We encourage you to watch these before Yom Tov, or whenever you can. These are sure to uplift you!
Wishing you a Hag Sameah, and then Shabbat Shalom, and as always good health,
