Introduce Yourself: Sherri Morr
|
|
|
Hi, my name is Sherri Morr. I am new to ChaiVillageLA and already enjoy Tuesday morning walks with the Rabbis. I felt very sentimental as a Jew on one walk with Rabbi Geller during Elul, the month of preparation for the High Holidays. We were near Rancho Park and she blew the Shofar. How cool it was to watch drivers stop, roll down their windows and listen.
