What's Happening

FROM THE RABBI'S DESK

Dear OZ family,

The reports of Anti-Semitism locally and through the world is beyond alarming.  It is incomprehensible that in living memory of the Holocaust that we would see the constant targeting of Jews from the fringes of both the right and the left, and it is devastating to hear the reactions to all of this from Survivors.  Updated news about the attack in Jersey City is extremely unnerving.  Jews bring renewed prosperity and rejuvenation to a community and are reviled by their neighbors.  History does repeat itself.

Please pray for the families of Moshe Hersch Deutsch and Leah Mindel Ferencz who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.  Our resolve must always be strengthened to enhance our own Ahavas Yisroel and answer hate with a resolute determination to defeat the bad guys and an unwavering commitment to love and support each other.

Rabbi Allen Schwartz
