Remembering September 11
Rosh Hashanah this year coincides with the 25th anniversary of September 11. In remembrance, we invite you to read Rabbi Serge A. Lippe’s “Crossing the Narrow Bridge,” which was published in the Central Conference of American Rabbis' anthology, The Sacred Struggle: Jewish Responses to Trauma. In this piece, Rabbi Lippe reflects on his experience of September 11 and the days that followed at BHS, as the community prepared to enter Rosh Hashanah together.
