Last week’s storm caused half of our schach to fall down.

This small inconvenience reminded me of our good fortune that our family has a permanent residence in which to live. The holiday of Sukkot teaches us many values including gratitude, life’s vulnerability and our obligation to help those who do not have safe places to live and the basic necessities of life.

Moadim L’Simcha V’Shabbat Shalom!

May we build a better world together.
