In the most recent issue of Jewish News, we wrote about area synagogues preparing for this most unusual High Holiday season. As we go to press, much of those congregations’ work is complete with boxes and bags of honey and cakes and memorial books and prayer books delivered into the hands of their congregants. The preparation has been enormous and the anticipation palatable. Positive and appreciative notes of thanks have been shared throughout Jewish Tidewater as the outreach is helping to maintain connections.
