How beautiful, How American to have the freedom to celebrate and enjoy our festival of Chanukah publicly and proudly.
Chanukah is about giving thanks to Almighty God for His wonders and miracles. Today, we offer heartfelt thanks to the Creator for the freedom of religious practice that our wonderful country provides.
This is not unlike the freedom won by the Macabees at the time of Chanukah. And as we celebrate together as a community, we share this message with Jew and Gentile alike.
In the words of the visionaries who established this blessed republic: we are one nation, under G-d, with freedom and liberty for all. The founders understood that the only way to realize freedom and equality is through the recognition of the Great Creator who endows each of us with the gift of life. |
