Wisdom from my rebbe, Ruth Messinger:

Wisdom from my rebbe, Ruth Messinger:

"The creation of a more just society is all of our responsibility. It is how we can express our devotion to God, how we can create greater harmony in this broken world. It requires that we understand ourselves as responsible for the other, learn that our actions have consequences for those around us and for those on the other side of the world. We live our values, we honor God when we help those in need, work with them for greater justice in their lives, use the affluence and influence of our community on behalf of everyone."
