Shavuah tov! This is the first Weekly Edition of 5778, and we would like to wish you all a sweet New Year. We also ask your forgiveness for errors and omissions over the last year. As President Washington said, “I am nevertheless too sensible of my defects not to think it probable that I may have committed many errors.”

With Kol Nidre coming on Friday night, we return to a normal publication schedule this week.

If you haven’t already, please think about helping #Harvey and #Irma victims via donating to the Red Cross or through JEWISHcolorado’s Hurricane Relief Fund (which has been expanded to cover both disasters).

G’mar Chatimah Tovah! May you all be sealed for a sweet new year!
