The High Holiday Tent is down and the Community Sukkah is up!
The inspiration, meaning and joy from the tent is being transferred to the Sukkah....
Yes a little more exposed to the elements (although G-d willing we will have great weather next week), but it is a reminder of the spiritual embrace that the Sukkah represents, and the message that its temporary walls and roof carry, that despite the fragile dynamics of our lives and history, we have who to rely on to help us succeed and power on.

5784 has just begun and it is already a year bursting with tremendous potential. Many hundreds of individuals and families have participated in a Chabad Sudbury program just in these first few days of the year, whether at High Holiday Services, visits to the local Nursing Homes, Tashlich for the crowd of hundreds, the Rosh Hashanah Dinner, Hebrew School or so many other venues and programs. Together they have helped set the tone for what will surely be a beautiful, productive and growth oriented year.
Last night I spent 3 hours in NY doing some preparations for Yom Kippur & Sukkot and stopping to pray in 770, the Chabad Headquarters and at the Lubavitcher Rebbe's Resting place, the Ohel, in Queens.
Hebrew School got off to an awesome start this past Sunday as dozens of returning students and multiple new students, started the new academic year with some learning and fun. The students learned all about Rosh Hashanah and then had a fun and interactive set of activities which made for a great way to start off the New Year!
In these final hours of 5783, we wish you and yours a Shana Tova U'Metuka and a year of health, happiness, meaning and success.
