Today, as we dwell in this reflective month of Elul and prepare for the high holidays ahead, we also recall this day in our nation’s history. May the memory of all those we lost be a blessing.

From North to South, East to West, and throughout the world, may peace and kindness prevail over terror and violence.

Shalom, y’all.
