We had a wonderful time last night celebrating Chanukah with our community at the Light Up the Night concert, benefitting Ameren Missouri's Gift of Energy program! In case you missed it (or just want to rewatch!), here is the Prayer Lab Band performing Candle Song by EarthPractice. This song serves as a great reminder to us all this holiday that even though there is darkness around the candle, we must allow ourselves to focus on the flame. Chag Urim Sameach to all!

Help us "Light Up the Night" this Saturday at 7 p.m., as Shaare Emeth's clergy, Lucy Greenbaum and the Prayer Lab Musicians present an evening filled with music, poetry, story and song. Sign up at sestl.org/light-up-the-night to receive a link to this digital concert! You can also help a family in need by making a donation to Ameren's Gift of Energy program when you register suggested donation is $5.

Music is a wonderful remedy for times of stress!

During our 2nd Day Rosh Hashanah Prayer Lab service, the Prayer Lab band offered this musical setting of Sim Shalom, composed by Rabbi Noah Diamondstein. It is a reminder to us all that we have the power to put more peace in the world in this new year. Shana Tova!
