Parsha Vayishlach

This week, Rabbi Miriam shares a 90-second video sermon on Parashat Vayishlach. She reflects:

"A 90 second sermon on something that's difficult to talk about. Particularly in a family setting like shul. But because abuse thrives in silence, it's important to share this story and speak out against it happening in our communities and our world. If the Torah can, so can we. "
