From the Bima
The leading topic among rabbis has been gun violence; in
fact, it has been the main topic of discussion amongst clergy
groups in general regardless of denomination. Obviously I,
like other members of the clergy, have read about and been
horrified by the rash of shootings that have plagued our
nation, but often it is when something becomes personal that
it takes on a more urgent appeal. For me, it began at
minyan in Minnesota last December. I was going to Beth El,
a Conservative congregation there, and met a young man
named Sami Rahamim, also saying Kaddish. However Sami is only 17 years old and
his father was shot and killed while at work. I was moved by the passion and the pain
he expressed and felt the need to involve myself in this cause. If you’d like to hear
Sami’s story in his own words, go to www.demandaplan.org/sami. The organization he
is affiliated with is called Mayors Against Illegal Guns; I visited their website,
www.mayorsagainstillegalguns.org, and was impressed with what they’re doing. I was
saddened to see that Wayne is not on the list, so I’ve reached out to our Mayor to try
and get him to sign on. We’re not there yet, so feel free to join the cause.
So here I was back in NJ, signing and forwarding petitions, but it didn’t feel like it was
enough. So when I received an invitation from Rabbi Joel Mosbacher to come to the
inaugural meeting of what has become NJ Together Against Gun Violence, I knew that
I had to attend. I learned that Rabbi Mosbacher also is a personal victim, having lost
his father to gun violence. Collectively, it was decided that the next step was
legislation and so we set about trying to meet with our Representative in Congress.
Wayne was recently redistricted, so while I know Congressman Pascrell well, he is no
longer our representative; it is now Congressman Rodney Frelinghuysen, a man I had
never met. But recently, a small interfaith group of clergy went to Morristown and had
a face-to-face sit-down with our new Congressman.
I found Congressman Frelinghuysen to be an open-minded, moderate Republican. It
was interesting to discuss the issue with him as many congressmen are clearly in one
camp or the other, either favoring or opposing gun legislation. Our Representative is
on the fence, so we did what we could to try and convince him that while we support
the Second Amendment, we still think that there needs to be better regulation of
firearms to make all Americans safe.
As we say in the Prayer for Peace on Shabbat, “May we see the day when war and
bloodshed cease, when a great peace will embrace the whole world.” May we live to
see the day when gun violence is no more and no one dies from firearms in America.
And let us say, Amen.

OUR B’NAI MITZVAH
OF THE MONTH OF
MARCH
My name is Jacob and I will be called to the Torah as a Bar Mitzvah on March 9, 2013. I
am currently a 7th grade student at Schuyler Colfax Middle School. In my spare time I like
to hang out with my friends, play sports in the Wayne Rec leagues and
play XBOX.
On the day of my Bar Mitzvah, it is a special Shabbat where we read from two Torahs. My
Parsha will be P’kudei. In this Torah portion, we learn in great detail about all of the items
that were used to decorate the tabernacle in the desert. Moses felt obligated to tell the people about all the gold and silver objects that were used because he did not want the people
to suspect leaders of any wrongdoing. By reporting on all the details, he showed that being
honest and trustworthy is the way a leader of a community should act. By doing this, Moses
also gave an open list of the items so that no one would be tempted to steal. Moses wanted
to show the people that a leader should not view themself or be thought of as “better” than
anyone else.
I would like to thank my Hebrew school teachers and Rabbi Mark for their support
throughout my years at Shomrei Torah. I would also like to thank my Bar Mitzvah tutor,
Stuart Skolnick, for meeting with me every week and helping to prepare me for my Bar
Mitzvah.
Lastly, I would like to thank my sister Sammi and parents Judy and Adam for all the help
and encouragement they have given me.
I hope you can join me and my family on March 9th as I am called to the Torah as a Bar
Mitzvah.
4 March 2013
My name is Mandy and I will be called to the Torah on March 16th. I am a sixth grade student at Gerrard Berman Day School. In school, my favorite subjects are Language Arts, Math
and Science. I like to practice karate, play drums, watch baseball during the baseball season and
go to regional Kadima events, whenever they might be. In my spare time, I like watching videos
on YouTube and video chatting with my friends.
For my Bat Mitzvah project, I will be collecting toys to donate to hospitalized children. I think it
is very heartwarming to see them smile and have fun. These toys will include stuffed animals,
board games, etc.
My Parsha will be Vayikra. In this Parsha, HASHEM describes the laws of animal sacrifice.
HASHEM explains the different sacrifices that atone for guilt or sins, and distinguishes between
crimes committed by accident and crimes committed on purpose. For many of these crimes, animal sacrifice was a way to gain forgiveness from HASHEM.
I would like to thank all of my Hebrew teachers for teaching me how to read and understand the
language. I would like to thank my Rabbinics teacher for teaching me the laws of Judaism.
Thank you to my amazing tutor, Stuart Skolnick, for teaching me the tunes of many berachot and
the trope for Haftarah. Thank you to Rabbi Mark for teaching me how to read from the Torah
and for teaching me Torah trope.
Last, but not least, thank you to my family and especially my wonderful parents who have always
believed in me and have led me all the way to my Bat Mitzvah.
I hope that you can come Friday, March 15th and Saturday, March 16th where I will be called up
to the Torah as a Bat Mitzvah.
5 March 2013
Shalom!
Chag Sameach and a Happy Purim to all! On February 24th we had our school-wide Purim Program, Megillah
reading and Purim Carnival. A great time was had by all! Thank you to our Kitah Zayin and Hebrew High students for volunteering to run the booths at the Carnival. We could not have done it without you!
March is here and we have quite a few things going on in the Religious School.
On March 3rd our Kitah Vav class will be having a Yad workshop. Each student will be making their own Yad and
will be able to use it when they read a verse from the Torah at their Kitah Vav service which will take place on
Shabbat morning, May 11th.
Tuesday, March 5th, our Hebrew High will be bringing and serving food at the St. Paul’s soup kitchen in Paterson.
Thank you to Mara Hirschfeld for organizing this wonderful project!
Our Hebrew High will also be taking a trip to lower Manhattan on Sunday, March 10th. They will be taking a
multi-ethnic walking/noshing tour of the Lower East Side, (which will include pickles, of course!), Chinatown and
Little Italy with an emphasis on the Jewish History in this area. This private walking tour will be led by the “Big
Onion Walking Tours” and I am sure a good time will be had by all.
On Sunday, March 17th, we will have our school-wide Passover Program from 10– 11 am and Rabbi Mark will be
leading a workshop on Passover for our Kitah Zayin parents from 11:30-12:30.
On Friday evening, March 22nd, our Kitah Gimel will be having their Kabbalat Siddur service and will be speaking
about the meaning of their Hebrew names and whom they were named after. Please join us for this lovely Kabbalat
Shabbat Service which begins at 8 pm. All are invited to attend. There will be an Oneg Shabbat following the service.
Please remember there are three Junior Congregations in the month of March. If your child has not fulfilled
his/her Junior Congregation requirements, March would be a great month to come!!!
Passover vacation begins on Tuesday, March 26th, and we return on Sunday, April 7th, when Kitah Zayin will
be presenting a Yom Hashoa program from 11:30—12:30. ALL congregants and Religious School families are
invited to attend!
Wishing everyone a Chag Kosher V’Sameach Happy Passover!

"They who lead the many to righteousness will be like

The leader in our midst, Diane Seltzer, who came to
Shomrei Torah 16 years ago, lived in Luxembourg and
Germany from ages 1 to 3 while her father served in the
Air Force, settled in Syosset, NY for her elementary education, to Dix Hills for Junior High and beyond, possesses
the qualities of an exemplary volunteer who encourages
others to follow in her path of good deeds.
This winter, Diane initiated the awesome task of housing
and hosting needy families for seven days in our
Shul. Under her direction, many of our fellow congregants kept our "guests" warm, fed and sometimes entertained. FAMILY PROMISE has become very personal
for Diane since she has a friend who lost his job and is
now in jeopardy of losing the family home. She is acutely
aware of how easily any one of us could become homeless.
Volunteerism in a family appears to react like a revolving

It’s now light out when I travel to work and light out when I return. Always a sure sign spring
is coming.
And, another sure sign is that Purim has come and gone and, with it, the enormous task of organizing, purchasing, assembling and delivering Purim boxes to our Shomrei Torah community and more. Thanks for your huge efforts go to Phyllis Staloff, Judy Krantz, Sue Gordon,
Elyce Berenzweig, Sue Mirsky, Sue Feldman, Karen Weiss and Janet Simon. Thanks, too, to
everyone involved in all phases of this project.
April brings our annual Recipe Dinner, always a highlight to the Sisterhood year. My personal
favorite last year was Elaine Schlossberg’s dish, but you’ll have to attend this year to see for
yourself.
Aligning to our synagogue’s recent theme of ‘zachor’ (to remember), author David L. Wilson
will revisit the Jews of Paterson at Shomrei Torah on Monday, May 6, at 8pm. His book, Jews
of Paterson (Images of America), illustrated with photos from the archives of the Jewish Historical Society of North Jersey, makes “former and current residents recall the Hamilton Avenue bagel bakery, Purity Cooperative rye bread, candy stores, delicatessens, the YMHA, bar
mitzvah coaches, rabbis, the baby doctor, pediatricians, schoolteachers, and even the synagogue shames . . . Jews of Paterson is more than just nostalgia, it is the remarkable story of
how a particular group built a community and made it into a special place.” EVERYONE is
invited to join us for this memorable night. Thanks, Maxine Berger, for spearheading this evening.
And, please also remember, Renee Lesser will again be selling scrip in the synagogue lobby
Sunday, March 10 and 24. This is, by far, our easiest fundraiser. YOU buy gift cards at their
face value and, for the same price you’d pay anywhere, Shomrei Torah benefits with a percentage of each purchase. Check out our vendor list, including Fairway, our newest addition, to see
how and where you can shop and support Shomrei.
Looking forward to spring and to seeing you all springing up at some or all of our upcoming
events.
