Our community includes a wide range of perspectives on this harsh time in the Middle East. We love Israel, and we feel the intensity of the pain of October 7th and the ongoing trauma to Israelis. We cherish human life, and we feel pain at witnessing the immense suffering in Gaza and Lebanon. If you are struggling to reconcile these two sets of feelings, or if you need a space to process or express the distress of witnessing the suffering of Palestinians and others, this Shabbat afternoon conversation is for you. It will be an opportunity for sharing feelings, facilitated by Rabbi Ilana. Join us in the back of the chapel.
