Chanukah

 One final note on Chanukah- the candle we use to light the other candles is called the shamash, or the helper candle. I am fond of the quote I once read by Rabbi David Wolpe who said,

“The Shamash lights the other candles. Be the Shamash.”

Here’s to being the shamash and to raising future helpers together.

Wishing you warmth and light, today and all winter long, from our ECDC family to yours,
