Views From Jews

This month we present a photo from Alex Schwartz, a junior at Binghamton University, who spent the summer volunteering at Yemin Orde, telling us what he envisions when he thinks of the following quote:

"Above all, this country is our own. Nobody has to get up in the morning and worry what his neighbors think of him. Being a Jew is no problem here." - Golda Meir

We welcome your photographic contributions for the month of Tishrei:

All vows/Prohibitions, oaths, consecrations, vows that we may vow, swear, consecrate, or prohibit upon ourselves/ from this Yom Kippur until the next Yom Kippuer, may it come upon us for good/ regarding them all, we regret them henceforth/ They will all be permitted, abandoned, cancelled, null and void, without power and without standing/ Our vows shall not be valid vows; our prohibitions shall not be valid prohibitions/ and our oaths shall not be valid oaths. - Kol Nidrei

Submissions should be sent to Shira Novack, no later than September 1st. All submissions become the property of KOACH.
