Hodesh Tov Adar 1, 5782 A Welcome Message by Rabbi Raanan Mallek...
Hodesh Tov, Happy New Month of Adar I. I am pleased to have arrived on Maui. The Oral Torah (Mishnah Shekalim 1:1) says that "On the first of Adar they make a public announcement about the shekels - (Israeli currency)." This was a time to remind the people that they are to prepare their annual monetary offering to the Temple treasury, that was known as the half-Shekel. Our Torah portion this week Terumah (Hebrew for 'contribution') opens with the Eternal asking Moses to: "Speak to the children of Israel, and have them take for Me an offering; from every person whose heart inspires him to generosity, you shall take My offering." (Exodus 25:2). "Giving from the heart" has been a membership model that JCM recently incorporated. Giving from the heart results in building a Sanctuary for the Divine Presence. I welcome you all to email me rabbi@mauijews.org to discover ways to give and merit the continual upbuilding of the JCM Sanctuary.
Please Click Here if you or a loved one would like to be added for a prayer for healing each week. These names will not be posted publicly, but they will be read during services. JCM is here to support you and your loved ones, please let us know how we can help.
