Statement From Congregation Shir Ami

Congregation Shir Ami joins the global Jewish community in shock and outrage at the brutal Hamas attack on Israel. The murder of civilians and the taking  of hostages cannot be justified. We pray for immediate return of the captives, and for healing for all those impacted by this terrible violence.  In the depths of our pain, we also have compassion for the suffering of Palestinian civilians, who have been killed, injured, and displaced . We hope for a speedy end to military hostilities, and for a future of co-existence for the peoples of the region.

Trauma is the response to a deeply distressing or disturbing event that overwhelms an individual’s ability to cope, causes feelings of helplessness, and diminishes their sense of self and their ability to feel the full range of emotions and experiences. Many of us in the Jewish community have experienced some sort of trauma or grief due to October 7th, the ongoing conflict, and the global rise in antisemitism.
