Holidays - Temple Concord Syracuse

All are welcome to experience and participate in the holiness, cultural and historic celebrations of Jewish holidays. 

The year 5781 begins with challenges none of us could have expected.

Challenges abound—the pandemic, our interactions with each other, the process of     envisioning our future. Amidst all of the tumult, we return to tradition, to the melodies and prayers of our people as we look back and forward.

When we take a personal accounting for the year just ended, we will see and focus on realities many of us may have never recognized before. Our tradition calls us to        Teshuva, to repentance and return. Looking inward, each of us can see a better version of ourselves.

I hope and pray that our gatherings, as unusual as they will be, will inspire you took for that better version of yourself, to create a community where we can help each other see and achieve Tikkun Olam, the repair of our world. 

Rabbi Daniel J. Fellman
