The sound of the shofar
is not the cry of a human voice.
It is the howl of an animal’s horn.
It is a cry so primal, so raw,
that the mind ceases to ponder,
the heart suspends its throb.
With the fury of a beast pent up in its cage,
the naked essence of the soul bursts out,
howling, ripping through heaven’s curtains,
awakening the primal essence of all being.
The raw core of your soul below
touches the Primal Essence above,
and now their reunion may begin.
Chabad is here to serve the needs of the Jewish people and to strengthen their connection to Judaism. Our open-door policy always brings us new faces and friends, whether for religious services, personal guidance, special events, or many of our other programs throughout the year.
