Today marks the beginning of Shavuot, a significant Jewish festival that starts at sundown on 21 May and ends at nightfall on 23 May.

Shavuot celebrates the giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai and is a time that reflects themes of unity, gratitude, learning, and fresh beginnings. It is also associated with blessings, peace, and coming together with family and community.

A traditional greeting shared during this festival is “Chag Sameach”, meaning “Happy Holiday.”

As colleagues and communities celebrate, we extend warm wishes to all observing Shavuot. May this special time bring happiness, peace, and blessings to you and your home.
