Shadows and Light

The Solar Eclipse

As natural phenomena, total solar eclipses have captivated humanity for centuries, provoking awe, fear, and wonder. The spectacle of the moon blocking the sun's light inspired myths among cultures all over the world as various peoples attempted to explain what they saw. On April 8, we found ourselves in the path of the last total solar eclipse we will see in the continental U.S. until 2045. As we witness the rare event of the moon passing in front of the sun, casting a shadow over the earth, we may ponder the grandeur and beauty of the universe. But beyond the visual experience, does the eclipse hold a deeper spiritual significance that can illuminate our hearts and minds? This Sunday, we celebrated the historic eclipse of April 8, 2024.

It is the season of Passover for our Jewish brothers and sisters, a time of spiritual renewal and a reminder of the enduring faith and resilience. It is a time to remember the struggles of the past and to reaffirm the values of freedom, justice, and compassion in the present. On Sunday we share beloved stories from the Jewish tradition. We will also welcome Dianne Kelley from the Congregation Beth-El Zedeck, who will share about her faith and service.
