It is almost upon us, the Festival of Matzot, the time of our freedom. The Zohar tells us that Matzah is the bread of faith and the bread of healing. We internalise the faith of our ancestors with the Matzah. They were healed from the trauma of their exile.
Healing brings you to a place of faith.
Faith brings you to a place of healing.
Ingest the Matzah mindfully to ingest a faith where there are no doubts, just a simple trust and a deep joy which leads to healing and harmony of body and soul.
May we carry within us a deep faith and a true healing, providing strength and freedom for the hostages, for our soldiers, and for our nation to live in safety and peace.

With our Friday night candles we welcome Shabbat Hagadol, ‘The Great Shabbat’, so called because of the many miracles that occurred on that day and leading up to the exodus from Egypt.
It is a day to acknowledge the great miracles then and now.
It is with love in our hearts that we acknowledge the open and revealed miracles which took place in Israel this past week. Pesach-type miracles happening in our day.
May we experience the miracle of all miracles, the final redemption now!
An inspiring message of hope and miracles by Rabbi Warren Goldstein, Chief Rabbi of South Africa youtu.be/JzRWvH7hHg0?si=8I4uSM0wUX-91rv2
Shabbat Shalom 🌸

A Powerful Day
Today, Rosh Chodesh Nissan, is a powerful day. Nissan is the head of the months, and it was on this day that the first mitzvah was given to the Jews while they were still in Egypt - that of Rosh Chodesh. It is even more powerful for women as Rosh Chodesh is a day of reward and recognition specifically for women. A day to be enjoyed and appreciated by Jewish women everywhere. You are, of course, welcome to celebrate with the RCWC affiliate groups. mailchi.mp/669e8cc00191/israel-and-the-rcwc

The third of Nissan is the day that our Connecting through Candle Lighting broadcast began on the yahrzeit and in memory of Liba Gutnick ז”ל.
