Shabbat Shuva Shalom

Shabbat Shuva, the Shabbat of Return, is the Shabbat between Rosh HaShannah and Yom Kippur.

Nesshama Carelbach’s beautiful rendition of her father’s song is a wonderful way to welcome us to this special time.

Close your eyes and become a part of this meditative experience.

G’mar chatima tova, May you have a good seal- May it be a year of health and blessing.

 

In these particularly turbulent times, this pensive song from the incomparable Rabbi Debra Sacks Mintz is a soulful prayer to help us enter Shabbat.

May peace and wholeness come to all.

Shabbat Shalom

‎הֱיֵה נָא קָרוֹב לְשַׁוְעָתֵנוּ
‎יְהִי־נָא חַסְדְּךָ לְנַחֲמֵנוּ
‎כִּי אַתָּה יְהֹוָה הָעוֹנֶה בְּעֵת צָרָה
‎פּוֹדֶה וּמַצִּיל בְּכָל־עֵת צָרָה וְצוּקָה
Please be near to our cry
Let Your loving kindness console us
For You, God, are the One who answers in time of trouble
Who redeems and rescues in all times of trouble and distress
