Shabbat Message, December 20, 2024, Parashat Vayeshev

Our Torah readers lineup this week includes youth who are taking on the serious responsibility of continuing our tradition. Come support them and those fellow congregants committed to chanting Torah and haftarah.

Come also because the story of Joseph starts this week. Here the Book of Genesis focuses us again on our ancestors’ immaturity and developing maturity. It’s a tale that never gets old.

And even as we get older getting more mature is a good goal for life.

This week’s sermon will be: “When Minors Take on Mitzvahs, Agents of the Jewish People.”

Hope to see you at services! Good to be back from Israel.

Shabbat Shalom,

Rabbi Bolton
