Among Friends

[sunala]

Today, January 27, 2017, is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Its organizers urge people to study the origins of holocausts to help prevent them in the future. Please take a moment to remember those who lost their lives and say a prayer that it will never happen again. Never again!

Shabbat Shalom to all who observe the Sabbath, and a very happy and healthy weekend!

A big welcome to all those of you who are joining us today. Good Shabbos! 

May all your loved ones be healthy, but if they are ill, may they soon be well.

To those of you and your family with health issues, may everything turn out well. May your medical tests and those of your loved ones come back with happy results. May your medical treatments be successful and may you live a long and happy life.

Sending prayers of healing and strength to you and your loved ones.

Now, more than ever, may our leaders who keep our country strong find the wisdom, courage and strength to make the right decisions for our security and well-being.

Good thoughts and thanks to our military. May they come home safely and SOON. Bless all the servicemen that didn't make it home; and to those who are serving, thank you for being there to protect our safety.

Special prayers for all the children...may they have good health, enough to eat and drink, a warm bed, and the abiding love of parents and family who will protect them. May the children survive and thrive. No child should ever go to bed hungry, nor should anyone else in our beautiful, bountiful country. Help the food banks if you can. Even a little helps. May our own children be healthy and happy, and shed no tears of pain or sadness.

May your parents be healthy and happy as well. I hope everyone's mom and dad and children are healthy, and/or getting better.

Condolences to those of you that have lost a parent or a loved one recently. May you find the strength to carry on, and hold good memories of your blessed loved ones to keep you strong.

Try to do a good deed for a friend or a stranger. They'll feel good, and you'll feel better.

May the best of everything come your way, today and every day.

Dear Donna, I'm thinking of you and everyone else who has lost a dear loved one. Thank you for our delicious snacks. We always look forward to enjoying them!

@Lechathousewishing you a safe journey across the world! Enjoy your trip and your adventure with your family. Try to keep in touch if you can!

Good health and happiness to everyone who shares their thoughts and prayers and good wishes with us every week. Hug your loved ones every day and make sure they know you love them.

Wishing you all the very best xox

Hugs, Sunny

Good Shabbos Sunny and friends,

Hoping everyone has a peaceful weekend.

Wishing all good health and happiness.

So much work to be done to preserve what is good and welcoming about our country. 

Our legacy will be what we teach our children.

Donna, hope that you have a good week, and that things are beginning to be easier. 

We must always be ready to help others!

Oh, Donna, mr. hennys black and whites have a gazillion calories I am hoping that some day you can make some that I can have!
