A Rosh HaShanah message from Matthew Guy
The opposition leader in the Victorian parliament Matthew Guy sends a special message to Jewish Victorians and all J-Wire’s Jewish readers….
Matthew Guy
I am pleased to extend my best wishes to J-Wire, its readers, and to Victoria’s Jewish community as it comes together to celebrate the Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashanah).
Rosh Hashanah is a significant holiday for the Jewish communities all around the world and a cherished time to spend with family and loved ones in the spirit of reflection and community celebration.
It is a reminder to us all of the freedom we have to celebrate our religious and cultural heritage. In Victoria, we are fortunate to live in a diverse society where significant events such as Rosh Hashanah can be observed freely.
Our position as the leading state for multiculturalism has been supported by our energetic multicultural sector, including Victoria’s Jewish community, who continue to champion the many benefits of our diversity, and promote harmony and cohesion across Victorian communities.
On behalf of the Liberal Nationals, I thank Victoria’s Jewish community for its contribution to the prosperity and vibrancy of our State and wish you all a peaceful and joyous Rosh Hashanah.
