Community Read w/Rabbi Treu
Morality: Restoring the Common Good in Divided Times by Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks
With liberal democracy embattled, public discourse grown toxic, family life breaking down, and drug abuse and depression on the rise, many fear what the future holds. In Morality, respected faith leader and public intellectual Jonathan Sacks traces today’s crisis to our loss of a strong, shared moral code and our elevation of self-interest over the common good. We have outsourced morality to the market and the state, but neither is capable of showing us how to live. Sacks leads readers from ancient Greece to the Enlightenment to the present day to show that there is no liberty without morality and no freedom without responsibility, arguing that we all must play our part in rebuilding a common moral foundation. A major work of moral philosophy, Morality is an inspiring vision of a world in which we can all find our place and face the future without fear.
We will gather on April 7th @ 7 pm for a community discussion of this work and the issues it raises. Need a copy? Thanks to the Stein Memorial Library Fund, copies can be borrowed from Agudas Achim. Contact Nancy at
nkaunitz@agudasachim.orgto RSVP and/or reserve a copy.
Let’s Light the Yellow Candle Together
The Yellow Candle™ Campaign was created in 1981 to keep alive the memory of the Six Million Jews who perished in the Holocaust, or “Shoah”. Entirely half of the world’s population of Jews was lost. These Yellow Candles are modeled after traditional Yahrzeit candles that burn for 24 hours during periods of mourning and on the Yahrzeit anniversary of a family member. The candle’s yellow wax serves to remind us of the yellow arm band which Jews were forced to wear during the Nazi regime.
This year, Holocaust Remembrance Day, or “Yom HaShoah”, begins on Wednesday evening April 7th, corresponding to 26 Nisan. Please plan to light the Yellow Candle we have provided to you in this box on that evening. Instructions and recommended meditations are provided on the back of this letter.
If you are able, I encourage you to please make a donation using the form on the back of this letter. 100% of your donation will benefit Holocaust survivors in need right here in the Central Ohio community, thanks to the generous sponsorship of Jonathan Silberstein, in memory of Abe Weinrib and Morrie Weinrib. To learn more about the Holocaust Survivors Initiative, go to JewishColumbus.org/HIS.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at Brotherhood@agudasachim.org.
