Mussar is a Jewish ethical, educational, and cultural movement that developed in the 13th century in Lithuania. The term Mussar is from the book of Proverbs 1:2 meaning moral conduct, instruction or discipline. Each Wednesday, our spiritual moment will introduce a different middah (a virtue or value) that can be implemented to increase our mindfulness in our daily lives.

Do not allow anything to pass your lips that you are not certain is completely true.

Blessed are You Adonai, Sovereign of all, who hallows us with mitzvot, commanding us to count the Omer.
