Rosh Hashanah 5783 message from Rabbi Yitzchok Austin
 
I can't believe that I am sending a Rosh Hashanah message already! This year has literally flown by with so much happening in the community, thank G-d. The community is growing with more people being engaged in our various activities.

This coming year is a year of Hakhel, gathering. In Temple times a special ceremony would take place the first night of Chol Hamoed Sukkos with the king reading out various Torah portions. Everyone, men, women and children would make an effort to join in this gathering. Although we are without the Temple we should use the year of Hakhel to come together not just on Shabbos or Yom Tov but on many occasions to strengthen each other and to increase in our display of Ahavas Yisroel!

Although Rosh Hashanah is known as the New Year, the actual translation is Head of the Year. Just as the head is the body's control centre directing the movement of the various limbs of the body, in the same way Rosh Hashanah controls and directs the rest of the year. So our spiritual behaviour on these two days affects how the rest of the year will play out. Hence why on Rosh Hashanah, so much attention and time is invested in prayer, reciting psalms and of course the special mitzvah of listening to the shofar.

I would like to thank everyone who has been helping with the community activities, from helping with making up the weekly minyan, running the Friday Ko-op, deliveries, gardening and everything else that makes our shul such a wonderful place.

Together with my wife Yehudit and our family I wish you all a Kesiva Vchasima Tova (that we should be written and sealed for a good year).
