Friends,

From my family and all at Jubilee USA, I wish you and your family every blessing as you celebrate Hanukkah.

In this time of terror, darkness and tumult, I struggle to simply send you a "Happy Hanukkah." Tree of Life weighs heavy on me. As a leader of an interfaith organization, I struggle with growing hate crimes against my Jewish mothers and fathers.

I'm a Catholic who celebrates on Sunday a "CliffsNotes" Shabbat. But, I reflect on the wicked king and we remember the resistance of the People of God and the light that this time celebrates.

This gives me hope. I am grateful to resist the sick wickedness with you. I am grateful to walk into the light with you. 

Chag Sameach,

Eric
