Our friend, Rabbi Menachem Creditor, has curated a second volume of reflections, poems, prayers and inspiration about the worldwide experience of Coronavirus.  He writes, “I feel the hearts of parents and teachers and nurses and poets and cantors and rabbis and journalists and bakers and
grandparents. And our precious children. These words are our best attempts to honor the memories of those we’ve lost and our written commitments to be agents for change, for hope, for healing.
Hinenu: We are here.

May this book be a source of comfort and strength and healing and love. May we reclaim the headlines with the shocking good we’ll do. May it be said of us by generations to come that we did better than survived: we cared deeply for ourselves, for each other, and for our fragile world.”

Rabbi Marc has contributed an essay called ‘Pandemic 2020 – The Death of Expertise and the Birth of Prevailing Wisdom.’  All proceeds benefit UJA Federation of New York’s Covid-19 relief work.
