We stand here on this day, all of us ready with our hearts open and ready to receive all the blessings of this new year. We started the year 5781 in much the same way we ended 5780 with a lot of uncertainty, but there is hope in our future.

And as we begin to receive the blessings and enter into a new year. May we all experience the joy and renewal of these holiest of days. May we be blessed with a renewed connection to the Divine, new energy towards our health and safety, and a commitment to strengthening our democracy’s voting rights that are a blessing to our nation. May we continue to get into good trouble. And may we continue to focus on justice and equality for all with compassion with those we may disagree

Yevarechecha Adonai, VeYishmerecha.

May God bless you and protect you! May God deal kindly and graciously with you! May God bestow God’s favor upon you and grant you peace!

Amen
