Super Bowl XLI. By now you probably have the snacks, the drinks, maybe the decorations, or whatever else you may need for a good super bowl party. And yes I know not to call you on Sunday afternoon, even if it's very important.
So, is it all about what you bring TO the super bowl, or can you TAKE something as well?
Well, here is something to think about during kickoff: Each of the players comes to the game extremely well trained, well prepared; can catch, can run, and can touch down. Yet, as able as they may be, they cannot play the game on their own; only working together with their whole team, can they each score a victory.
Each and every one of us is a "player" on the field. Each mitzvah is a touchdown; every good deed a goal. However, we need each other to work as a team to score. Let us be there for one another, let us strive for love, peace, and unity.
A way you can express this unity is to join us at any of our six Shabbatons around town for One Shabbat One, World culminating with a Melava Malka with Rabbi Eli Silberstein of Ithaca, NY!
For your pre-game preparations, join us for some unity at the Chabad Lubavitch Center groundbreaking with Mayor Bill White, Israeli Consul General of Israel Asher Yarden and more!
Shabbat Shalom and lots of fun on Sunday,
Rabbi Chaim
