A Moment in Time: “Who are You Going to Call?”

Dear all,

I came across a relic of bygone days. An actual pay phone! Remember those?

With the Holy Days approaching, this season that reminds us to reaffirm our connections, I thought to myself, “Zach, in this moment in time, who are you going to call?”

(I’ll be honest – the thought of “Ghostbusters” did resonate!)

Who do I need to embrace?

With whom do I need reconciliation?

Who do I need to support?

Who do I need to let them know I am thinking of them?

And finally – have I been accessible to answer the call as well?

With love and shalom,

Rabbi Zach Shapiro
