TEMPLE RAMAT ZION

“It is my distinct pleasure to recommend YedidYah to you and your community.  When Aaron and Yakira first came to my synagogue, I had no idea what a gem they were.  And then I met their amazingly talented daughters and I was blown away.

The entire family is full of tremendous ruach, and their soulful and lively music engages everyone from kids to adults.  Their connection to music and Judaism is deep in their bones and you can hear it in every song.

Often, when listening to them, I feel like I am being transported to Israel.  And I am constantly impressed with their new compositions and new takes on traditional prayers, which imbue the ancient words with a fresh meaning.  Kol Haneshamah Tehalel Yah, With their complete soul they praise God!”

BLOGGING JEWISHLY

BLOGGING JEWISHLY  is one way for me to reach out and connect with you. When I discovered blogging I fell in love.  The idea that my day dreaming concepts, thoughts and teachings, bases and inspired by Torah and Talmud studies – might be helpful, comforting or even inspire someone, brings me great joy.  I plan to Blog Jewishly, sharing my reflection on Jewish Halachah (laws) and Musar (morals),  life, facts, conceptions, philosophy, truths, lies and everything in between, in a contemporary, simple way.   Grab a cup of coffee and make yourself at Home.
