Today, we remember the 11 lives lost during Shabbat services at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh. May their memories be a blessing& guide us in building bridges of understanding for our community& the wider world and strengthen our unity in facing antisemitism everywhere.
⏰ is running out for YOUR chapter to enter a program into the #CommonGroundChallenge with our friends @OurCommonDstny. We're looking for additional chapters across the Order to be part of this competition. Applications are due October 23! https://t.co/FXUV8FJs0F.
In these polarizing times, it can be hard to engage those with whom we disagree. Our CEO Sandy Cardin wrote a piece in @jdforward about the inherently Jewish value of doing just that. #ourcommondestiny

We’re saddened to learn of Our Common Destiny Advisory Board member Rabbi Jonathan Sacks undergoing treatment for cancer. We pray for a speedy and complete recovery.

While goals remain the same, our plans of action at Hillel International may be different than our Hillels working directly with our students! We are challenging our campus + global Hillels to participate in #DifferentButSame, created by @OurCommonDstny: https://t.co/iIWpYcAJLN
Lord @RabbiSacks is an orthodox Rabbi from London and I'm a secular Israeli. We look different, we sound different and our lives are very different but we share a love for the Jewish people and a belief in the power of dialogue to bring about unity. #Differentbutsame
It’s been a year since the horrific massacre at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, where 11 people were cruelly murdered.
Shots were fired as worshippers and guests arrived at the community synagogue that united the residents.
שנה לטבח הנורא בבית הכנסת "עץ החיים" בפיטסבורג, ארה"ב, בו נרצחו 11 בני אדם.
יריות החרישו את המקום בזמן שמתפללים ואורחים הגיעו לבית הכנסת הקהילתי שאיחד את התושבים.
כל יהודי שליבו פועם בו, עצר לרגע עם היוודע הבשורה, והרגיש שהכאב הגדול הוא סימן לאחדות גורל של העם היהודי
Our story begins with the Torah, the book of the Jewish people, the basis of our existence.
That's where #OurCommonDestiny begins.
הסיפור שלנו מתחיל בתורה, ספר הספרים של העם היהודי,
הבסיס לקיום שלנו.
שם מתחיל גם הייעוד המשותף שלנו.
כמו שבני ישראל ישבופוסט לסוכות
בסוכות כך אנו מזמינים את כל העם היהודי להתכנס תחת קורת הגג שמהווה המגילה ולהגדיר יחד את הייעוד המשותף שלנו.
חג סוכות שמח.
As the Israelites sat in the Sukkot, we invite all the Jewish people to gather under the roof which is the scroll and to define our common destiny.
Happy Sukkot!
פוסט ליום כיפור
כדי שבעתיד לא נצטרך עוד לבקש סליחה איש מרעהו פתחנו במאמץ ליצור אחדות חדשה בעם היהודי.
נפגשנו אחד עם השני ולמדנו להכיר את האחר כדי להיות יותר סובלניים לסובבים אותנו.
גמר חתימה טובה.
So we no longer have to ask each other for forgiveness, we’ve embarked on an effort to create a new sense of unity for the Jewish people.
We’ve met & learned about each other, resulting in greater tolerance for those around us.
May you be signed & sealed in the book of life.
