What does Torah mean to me? Torah is like the thread that holds things together. It holds my family together despite our crazy schedule. Coming to Temple together or sharing a tradition at home helps us stay connected. Torah holds my community together. Through it, we share our lives, offer support to each other and celebrate. Torah holds the worldwide Jewish community together. As a child, I remember one Shabbat visitng a synagogue in Amsterdam with my grandparents. Though I couldn't understand any of the service in Dutch, the Hebrew was all the same and, as a kid, that was very cool! Torah is the thread that holds things together.
