Greetings from Rav Gavrielle

September 5, 2023 by Rav Gavrielle

Dear AARC Community,

I want to wish you all a happy and meaningful Elul journey and let you know how excited I am to be serving as your rabbi. Since starting this position in July, I continue to be truly touched by how warm, welcoming and helpful people are. Your willingness to collaborate and volunteer your time, heart and soul, and share your remarkable gifts is truly inspiring. It has been a true joy getting to know those of you who have come to services, Elul classes, the picnic and other gatherings.

I look forward to meeting more of you at the Havdalah Selichot service on September 9th and during the High Holy Days and embrace the opportunity to build meaningful relationships, and support and enrich your experience of Jewish life.

Brachot,

Rav Gavrielle
