Dear Friends,
Here is a part of the sermon I delivered on Kol Nidre night.
The entire sermon is available in the office or on my website rabbigold.com. I hope this sermon provides food for thought about
how to make our wonderful synagogue even more successful.
At least five of you forwarded an article to me that originally
appeared on Facebook. The gist of the article – younger people are not going to
join synagogues, no matter what the dues. The article was very pessimistic. Even
if synagogues were free, most young people will not join. They will not join until
they are convinced that not simply the synagogue, but Judaism, will make a difTorah Discussion/
ference in their lives.

Let me quote from that article: “If rabbis are sought out mainly for lifecycle

CANTOR'S MESSAGE
By Cantor Jonathan Angress
Dear Friends,
As we finish up the High Holiday season, I quickly begin
preparations for new and exciting musical and educational
programs this coming year. I am looking forward to being
involved in a few excellent projects along with the Pre-School,
Hebrew School, and synagogue staff.
In October, our Hebrew School will be participating in the
nationwide Shabbat Project where they will be spending all
of Shabbat here at TBTST on October 23rd-24th. I am particularly looking forward to engaging with the students by telling them spooky
Jewish stories, campfire style. That same Shabbat we will also be having Pajama
Havdalah where I will lead the Havdalah service entirely in my pajamas!
If you have ever been to Disneyworld, you will remember how magical of a place
it is. Even as an adult, I still try to go on a regular basis in order to stay in touch
with my inner child. I am proud to announce that we will be bringing a bit of the
Disney magic to TBTST. On Friday night December 11th, we will be having our
Disney Shabbat with the entire Friday Night service sung to Disney tunes! Come
dressed as your favorite Disney character!
Beginning in October, I will be starting a series of 5 classes to learn trope and
how to read Torah. The classes will be on October 18th, November 1st, November
8th, November 22nd, and December 5th. If you are interested in learning more information about these classes, please send me an email!
I am also pleased to announce that we will be reviving A Jewish Night On Broadway in the spring. The exact date is yet to be determined but I can guarantee a fun
night of theatre and music with another one of my Broadway friends!
B’Shalom,
Cantor Jonathan Angress
August 23 Mitzvah Day/Open House a Big Success
The Tikkun Olam Committee would like to take this opportunity to thank our
membership and community for all their hard work to make this an awesome
Mitzvah Day/Open House event.
Your efforts succeeded in completing these worthy projects: We filled 170 knapsacks
with donated school supplies and delivered them to the National Youth Advocate
Program and the Harvest Drive Program. These organizations help children in need.
We made 500 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for LifeNet4Families (formerly
Broward Cooperative Feeding Service). We had a very successful Blood Drive
thanks to our community and membership efforts. We gave beautiful blankets to
the children at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital. We also collected luggage and
backpacks for JAFCO, and sorted and donated clothing to Kid’s Kloset/ RAK
PAK. The list goes on and on. Thanks to all for a job well done!
We also want to thank our sponsors who helped make this event possible: Sterling
Caterers, Winn-Dixie at McNab Road, Sam’s Club of Coral Springs and Publix.
Watch the Scroll for a save-the -date notice for our next event.

Why Not Join a
Committee?
As it happens, much of the
“work” of TBTST and most
of the planning takes place in
committees. So, committee membership is a great place to begin
becoming involved in synagogue
life. Every congregation relies on
its volunteers both to work and to
lead. Most committees are open to
all who are interested and willing
to participate.
Two committees that are very interested in finding new, enthusiastic members are the Membership
Committee, and the Marketing
and Communications Committee.
Volunteers are always welcome to
be part of ourTikkun Olam committee, the sponsors of our enormously successful annual Mitzvah
Day. The Rabbi is always looking
for people interested in the Adult
Education Committee. Our Ways
and Means Committee serves as a
program committee and manages
many of our synagogue events.
Extra hands are always sought
to help in those activities.
If you have children, you know
about our PTOs. Keep them in
mind as well.
Both the Sisterhood and the
Men’s Club sponsor programs and
support activities that benefit the
synagogue. They both do their
work in a social atmosphere and
many deep friendships have arisen
among their members. If the
notion of a committee conjures
up the world of corporations,
cubicles and bureaucracy (ours
are much friendlier by the way)
think about becoming active in
one of our auxiliaries.
Only you know what might
interest you and, if you do, let
the office know and they will put
you in touch with the relevant
chairperson. If you know that
you would like to help, but are
unsure about just what you might
enjoy doing, talk to one of the
officers of the congregation or to
the presidents of the Sisterhood
or the Men’s Club.

Rosh Hashanah Appeal by Nancy Small
By Nancy Marks-Small, President
Hope
Elohai sh’ma koli, goralo b’yadecha eili
(God on high, hear my prayer. In my need you have always been there.)
Hu tza’ir sh’mor darko, al yashuv el beito.
(He is young. He’s afraid. Let him rest, Heaven blessed.)
B’shalom, b’shalom, b’shalom.
(Bring him home, bring him home, bring him home.)
He’s like the son I might have known,
If God had granted me a son.
The summers die one by one
How soon they fly on and on.
And now I’m old and will be gone:
Bring him peace, bring him joy.
He is young, he is only a boy.
You can take, you can give
Let him be, let him live.
If I die, let me die,
Let him live.
Bring him home, bring him home, bring him home (B’shalom).
(sung by Cantor Jonathan Angress)
Bring it Home from Les Miserables. Les Mis is an unforgettable story of heartbreak, passion and the resilience of the
human spirit. The show is ultimately about doing the right
thing. Throughout the show, you see people faced with choices
and forced to make personal sacrifices that affect the greater
good. It is a beautiful message of the power of doing the
right thing; a great study of right and wrong. At the end, one
leaves the theatre with hope.
I hope Temple Beth Torah Sha’aray Tzedek fulfills your needs.
I hope we are a congregation dedicated to meeting the spiritual, intellectual, social
and cultural expectations of our members with help from Rabbi Gold and Cantor
Angress and with help from our Sisterhood and Men’s club led by Ellen Feldman
and Dr. Barry Kanarek respectively.
I hope we provide a Jewish education to our children and be a congregation that
opens the minds of our children and instills within them a sense of what it is to be
a Jew…. with the help of our ECC Director Sydney Berlin and our Curriculum
Coordinator: Ronit Goldstein, our Religious Coordinator: Ava Phillips and our
Youth Group Director: Diana Silver.
I hope we are a congregation of individuals that join together for worship, study,
social action, tikkun olam, and in celebration.
I hope we provide our members with a sense of comfort and a sense of community.
Whereas this is a description of what I hope TBTST affords all of us today, in
order for us to continue…..and to do even more, we need each one of you to meet
the challenge and provide the generous financial support that we need. The annual
dues we pay to be a member and the religious school tuition does not fund our

“b’sever panim yafot “
The above quote ends the secondto-last tractate in the order
of Nezikin (damages) in the
Talmud.The tractate is more often
known as Pirkei Avot, literally,
the Chapters of our Fathers.
Interestingly, in Modern Hebrew
it is a common expression used to
denote “with open arms.”
Our president and board have
been discussing the concept of
“with open arms,”not in a Toraic
concept but with the idea of
becoming a more welcoming and
engaging Congregation.
Every committee of our
congregation is open to the
concept. We need volunteers and
we need you to think about how
you can help.
We have several active committees
who do much of the planning that
make membership in TBTST so
valuable to so many. Everyone
is looking for people to step
forward and share their expertise,
opinions and time to make those
efforts successful.
Of course, the Men’s Club and
the Sisterhood are obvious places
for you to help support activities
that benefit TBTST. The Men’s
Club motto – doing good while
having fun – really belongs to all
of them.
In the Scroll, you often read
about the Tikkun Olam/Mitzvah
committee. Committed hands are
always welcome.The membership
committee has a number of
projects that would help you feel
more engaged while welcoming
others.
The Rabbi is always looking
for people interested in widening
the work of the Membership
Committee and our Ways and
Means Committee is not just an
“ask for money” group, but is
involved in planning many of
our events.
And, by the way the Scroll would
be happy to have you aboard as
well.
President's Message continued
annual operating costs. To ensure our future, we continue to need your financial
support. We continue to have a full time Rabbi and Cantor, a full time business
manager and bookkeeper, an early childhood and religious school, daily services
and a variety of social programs available.
Hatikvah means “The Hope”. There is great power and beauty in Hope.
Now I am asking you to take action…the action necessary to change “HOPE”
to our “ACCOMPLISHMENT”. I am asking you to make the commitment and
sacrifice necessary to ensure our “HOPE” for TBTST becomes our REALITY…
that our Synagogue fulfills our needs today, and continues to fulfill the needs of
our children and our children’s children in the future. I’m asking YOU to move us
from “WE HOPE” to “WE ARE”.
Please consider this a challenge laid out before you. You have the choice and power
to do the unselfish thing. Please take out your pledge cards that are at your seats.
Show your support by folding down the appropriate tab on the card right now.
Consider folding down one tab higher than you did last year. If you do not have a
pledge card, please raise your hands and an usher will bring you a blank donation
card available for you to mail in or drop off at the office. Don’t procrastinate. Do
it now and know that your donation will ensure the future of Temple Beth Torah
Sha’aray Tzedek.
Please pass your pledge cards to the ushers who are picking them up. We cannot
thank you enough. May your acts of Tzedekah bring you fulfillment and reward.
May you and your families and those you love be inscribed for a good year, good
health, contentment and prosperity. On behalf of myself and my husband Mitchell,
we wish you a Shana Tova Tikatevu. G’mar chatima tova. And please remember
“WE ARE”!

Is Temple Beth Torah
Sha'aray Tzedek
In Your Will?
The synagogue’s role begins
at birth and continues without interruption throughout
the entire course of our
lives. By remembering the
synagogue in our wills, we
can do our part to assure
future generations that their
religious home will be there
to serve.
We depend upon more than
just dues alone to sustain
all that we do. If we are
concerned about the future
of Judaism, we must project
its influence and our influence into the future. Few
memorials are more worthy
than those provided by an endowment to TBTST through
a bequest.
Your legacy can reflect
everything that is most important and meaningful to
you. You can declare where
your funds might be used – to
supply the Hebrew School,
for example, or to support
one of TBTST’s designated
funds.
We all want TBTST to be
a spiritual home for generations to come, just as it has
been for you and your family.
Let us ensure the future of
our congregation and help it
grow and serve our people.
A Message from Ken Kahn
Ken Kahn, Business Manager, [email protected]
As many of you may not have realized, it is a long way from Delray
to Tamarac. The good news is that my wife and I are now living
in Tamarac and only 2.5 miles from the Temple. Interestingly
enough it seems the extra time I have spent in the car commuting
I now spend at the Temple working. How did I ever get things
finished in those shorter hours?
Well, there are many reasons things got done. We have a hard
working staff, as well as helpful committee chairs, and board
members that are always willing to pitch in. Of course Nancy our President is
available no matter what time of day or night. A community that helps one another
is a strong community.
When we first moved to Tamarac, only a few weeks ago I might add, my wife
Cheryl had no idea where to go for Kosher food. In Delray we had a Glick’s Market,
and they were just a few miles away. Here in Tamarac, I was told go to the Winn
Dixie just off University. So on a Friday afternoon with most of our possessions
still in boxes, Cheryl made the trek to find food for Shabbat. We had candles and
wine, but nothing else, not even a Challah.
While we were in the checkout lane armed with our Friday night dinner, which
included a small pareve apple pie for desert, yummy! It is this apple pie that was
noticed by a nice lady named Florence. Florence was asking about the pie, it must
have looked good. Oh, by the way it was good! So Cheryl offered her the pie, but
of course Florence did not accept it.
After the checkout the two ladies kept talking. A little ways into the conversation, Cheryl mentions that we had just recently moved, and was picking up our
first Shabbat meal, since our relocation. Florence continued the conversation and
proudly mentioned, “My Grandson is the Cantor at a Synagogue in Tamarac”.
From what I understand, this is when Cheryl burst out into a big smile and said
“Cantor Jonathon Angress.” Florence responded with a big smile and said “Yes”.
Cheryl then told Florence she was married to Ken the Business Manager and she
knows the Cantor very well.
“Bark, Bark”, goes my phone, (my ringtone is a barking dog). I answer and
Cheryl asks “Do you want to go to Florence and Irwin Schwartz’s tonight for Shabbat dinner? The Cantor will be there. Well I immediately knew who Florence and
Irwin were, I had met them several months back. So to make a long story short,
we had a wonderful Shabbat evening. We talked for hours after dinner. It was a
Shabbat to remember.
I would like to thank Florence and Irwin Schwartz for inviting us to dinner. I
can tell you from this as well as many similar experiences that we are very happy
to be part of such a “Warm and Inviting Community”.
The Next Membership Committee meeting will be
on Wednesday, November 4th at 7:00 pm. If interested, please call Jody Glass at 954-263-6778 or email
[email protected]. We hope you will join us.

Early Childhood News
Sydney Berlin, Early Childhood Director
With the High Holidays behind us, we are beginning to discuss fall in the classrooms and explaining that the fall season
brings cooler weather, changing leaves and a crispness to the
air. This is such a confusing lesson to teach preschoolers who
live in Florida. We talk about this magical concept of seasons.
Seasons that bring changing leaves and cooler air in fall, ice
and snow in winter, then beautiful blooming flowers in spring.
Unfortunately, all our children ever see and experience is summer heat, sun and rain! This concept is quite the mystery to young Floridians. So
instead, we have to get creative so our children can really feel what living in the
north is like and feel like they are experiencing the change in seasons.
We are hoping Florida will get the memo that it’s fall as we are anxiously awaiting
the cooler weather-if only for a day or two. With cooler weather, we get to spend
more time outside. Whether it’s on the playground, or taking our classroom learning outside, we try to enjoy it every way possible. Sukkot just ended and we were
fortunate enough to be able to use the Sukkah almost every day. The classes enjoyed
eating snack in the Sukkah, having story time and building edible Sukkahs as well.
In October our after school enrichment program begins. This program is open to
any child who is preschool age. The classes run from 3-4pm and we offer a different program each day. This session we are offering Knock on Wood, Spanish, Art,
Soccer, Karate, Cheerleading, Swim Lessons and Tumbling. If you are interested
in enrolling your child please call the ECC office.
Our PSO is gearing up for their largest fundraiser of the school year, Grandparents/
Family Day, which will be held on Sunday, October 25th. The PSO just hosted a wine
& cheese meet and greet for all parents. We had a great turnout! It’s always so nice
to see so many parents coming together to support their children and our school.
Our Socialites program kicks off on Tuesday, October 13th. This is a kids club/
youth group just for children in PreK, K and 1st grade. Anyone is welcome to join
and we still have a few spots open.
Our first Tot Shabbat of the year will be held on Friday, Nov. 20th at 6pm. It’s a
Thanksgiving themed Shabbat with a children’s Shabbat dinner to follow. Call the
ECC office for more information and to make your reservation, 954-722-9537.
Also, save the date for our Scholastic Book Fair from December 7th-11th. We are
also hosting a PJ Library Family Night on Thursday, December 10th. More details
will be out soon.
As always, we would love as much support of our events as possible. We hope
to see you there! 7

Beit Sefer - Curriculum News
By Ronit Goldstein, Curriculum Coordinator
Childhood memories last a life time. We all have special memories
from our childhood that we hope to pass down to our children.
One of my special memories is the way we celebrated Shabbat
in Israel. No matter where you live in Israel, whether it is in a
secular neighborhood or in an orthodox one, the atmosphere
of Shabbat is a special one. The rush to make last shopping for
Shabbat, the smells of the fresh challah and multicultural foods
and the excitement of preparation for Shabbat, are unforgettable. Friday late afternoon, all the stores are closed. The streets are almost empty.
Periodically you can hear a mom calling to her child from her kitchen window, to
come home and get ready for Shabbat. The challah is covered, the wine is in the
cup, the chicken noodle soup is boiling and the chicken is in the oven. My dad
walks in at the last minute. This is the one day of the week where we all sit together
around the table for a family meal. We sing Shabbat songs, eat, laugh and spend
some quality time together.
As we grew older, our priorities changed. We no longer wanted to spend the time
with our family on Shabbat. We rushed through the meal, just to go out and meet
our classmates for a class social event. The meeting place: the hills of the Tel Aviv
University. We all sat in the dark and engaged in endless conversations. Once we
joined the army, Shabbat dinners changed again. The magic was no longer there.
The traditions faded away and became a treasured memory.
I was introduced to the Shabbat Project about a year ago by one of our Hebrew
School parents. It began in South Africa about three years ago, in the attempt to
revive the spirit of Shabbat. The vision of the project is that Jews around the world
will observe Shabbat in unity. Communities are encouraged to create their own
unique program that suits their congregation's needs. This year, the Shabbat Project
will fall on the weekend of Oct. 23-24. What a wonderful way to create long lasting memories for our next generation! Our Hebrew School will join forces with
the Youth Department to plan an unforgettable weekend, where students will be
able to spend the whole weekend in shul and be engaged in fun, interactive activities alongside spiritual ones. In preparation for the event, our students will learn
the different aspects of observing Shabbat. Prayers, rituals and customs will be
discussed according to students’ age groups and levels of understanding. Families
and all congregation members are welcome to join as well. Let us all come together
to support our youth and together we can create a new long lasting tradition.

Convention Season is in the Air
By: Samantha Gaynor
For some people, fall reminds them of colorful leaves, changing
of the season, and maybe of Halloween being around the corner.
For USY and Kadima, fall is all about the upcoming conventions!
Both USY and Kadima get to enjoy amazing weekends in the
month of October.
USY Fall Subs takes an interesting turn with everyone staying
at home hospitality instead of the usual hotel. Most of the plans have not yet been
released, but we do know the convention follows the usual agenda of services, fun
programs, and a fun Saturday night program to round it off. Some of the events
are taking an interesting twist this year. USYers get to choose which topic they
would like to participate in for the education portion of the weekend. Convention
is hosted by BTBRC and will take place October 16-18, and will surely be one to
remember.
Get ready to have some green eggs and Hebrew National salami, at the Dr. Seuss
themed Kadima convention. They might just find someone who speaks for the trees
at the Gold Coast campsite, where the convention takes place from October 2325. The jam-packed weekend mimics the usual agenda of a USY convention with
services, fun programs, and a dance to round it off. This will be some Kadimaniks’
first convention so they can get the chance to bond with the TBTST chapter and
other chapters in the sub-region.
Both Kadimaniks and USYers look forward to their sub-regional conventions,
whether it’s their first convention or not. As always, we’ll make new friends and
spend time with the old ones in two unforgettable weekends.
DON’T
• Wear inappropriate clothing
• Skip activities—even if you might not like what’s planned, you could surprise
yourself by having a really great time, so don’t miss out on opportunities.
• Bully ANYONE—USY is a safe place for teens and that atmosphere must be
respected.
• Behave inappropriately or do anything against convention rules—everyone wants
to have a fun weekend so misbehaving will only get in the way of a good time.
• Be afraid to get wacky! USYers often bring fun things to conventions like
onesies or crazy socks, so you’re encouraged to bring things that you might
not normally use.
DO
• Make new friends—convention is a great opportunity to meet new people.
• Stay in touch with your new friends—the best part of meeting new people is
seeing them after convention ends.
• Be punctual to programs—early is on time, on time is late, and late is unacceptable!
• Be yourself—USY and Kadima are judge-free environments and it is always
okay to be who you are around your friends.
• And most importantly - Have fun!!!

Be a Shabbat greeter!
Want to leave services
with a smile on your face?
There is no better feeling than
to make others feel welcome
and to feel the peace of extending a “Shabbat Shalom”
or “GoodYom Tov” to others.
There are no special skills
involved, just show up, (on
time!), extend a smile and a
Shabbat Shalom leaflet. What
better way is there to feel a
part of the congregation?

Help us make a minyan!
We are the only Conservative
synagogue in Broward to
have daily minyan every
morning and evening, every
day of the year! Help us keep
it going and support those
who are saying Kaddish.
Volunteer to come to minyan!
You don’t have to know
Hebrew or any of the prayers
– just your presence will be
greatly appreciated.
This is a great way to celebrate
an event like a birthday or

Parking Lot Safety
Did you know that one of the
likeliest places to be involved in
a fender bender is in a parking
lot? People seem to suspend their
good judgment when looking for a
parking space or when pulling out
of one. Coming in, our first reaction
is to dart forward to be the first to
claim the closest spot possible. In
our parking lot, most people park
face in.There is nothing wrong with
that, but you have to be extra cautious when backing out, because
the car just opposite you may be
doing the same thing at the same
time. Always make a 360 degree
check as you back out.
Also, if you are here during the
week, remember that our parking
lot is accessed via 94th Avenue and
there is both an elementary and
a middle school just across the
street. Watch out for kids crossing
the street before you make your
turn onto 94th Avenue. Be sure to
check the time and to observe the
school zone speed limits if they
are in force.
Here are some other tips:
• Hide or remove your valuables
when leaving your car and be
sure to lock the car when you
step way. Even if you are just
picking up your child from our
Hebrew School, it only takes a
minute for a thief to grab your
cell phone or your purse.
• Leave your engine running until
you’ve gathered everything and
you’re ready to get out of the car
but be sure to turn it off when
you do.
• Be alert to notice other people
in the parking lot. If your sixth
sense urges caution, heed it and
do not leave the car.
• When you’re walking back to
your car, keep your keys in
hand, so you can get into the
car quickly.
• If you are looking for your car,
press the lock door key, not the
open door key to get your car to
tell you where it is.
• Lock your doors once you get
inside the car.
TBTST SISTERHOOD
By Ellen Feldman, President
By the time this Scroll reaches all of you, we will have welcomed
in the New Year 5776 and kicked off our year’s upcoming events
with the opening program of Bingolada. Always fun, this was no
exception!
On Wednesday, October 28th at 7:00p.m. we will be presenting
a joint program with the Youth Department sponsored by the
organization Step Up For Israel. Step Up For Israel, whose Campaign Chairs
are Professor Alan Dershowitz and Ambassador Dore Gold, “is an international
grassroots campaign that connects individuals and communities to Israel by
providing a strong foundation in Israel education and activist opportunities.” We
will be presenting the documentary “CROSSING THE LINE - PART II”. This
film reveals the rise of anti-Israel activity and anti-Semitic rhetoric on North
American university campuses, and demonstrates when reasonable criticism of
Israel “Crosses the Line’ into anti-Semitism. THIS PROGRAM IS A MUST SEE
FOR EVERYONE! It is opened to the entire congregation. Following the film
a discussion will be led by Matt Weisbaum, Managing Director of Jerusalem U,
responsible for developing education programs and activism initiatives. If you
have college-aged children or grandchildren this is one program you should not
miss!! Please RSVP to the office.
Sisterhood and Men’s Club will be sponsoring a very special weekend in the
month of November. Saturday, November 21st will be a special Shabbat honoring
all our veterans. If you are a war veteran and would like to participate in Shabbat
Services, please contact the office! On Sunday, November 22nd, we will have our
annual Holiday Boutique, followed by a luncheon and a unique program honoring
Jewish War Veterans. Dr. Judi Benson-Levinson, author, historian and creator of
“SAND IN OUR BOOTS”, MIAMI BEACH WWII VETERANS REUNIONS,
will present her fascinating slide show and talk. She describes the major role
South Florida played in the war effort. Nearly 500,000 troops passed thru, turning
Miami Beach into the “most beautiful boot camp in America” and changed South
Florida for years. This program, too, is open to the entire congregation. Join us!
Sisterhood will be experiencing SHABBAT AT SEA during a fabulous 3 day
cruise aboard NCL’s Norwegian Sky. This will be the weekend of January 22ndJanuary 25th. Sail with us as we observe Shabbat, participate in services, and have
fun with all our fantastic women. Deadline is November 1st.
Sisterhood could not be the successful arm of the synagogue without the members
who step up and give of their time and expertise when needed. This past month
Dianne Solomon was just that woman. A huge Todah Rabah goes out to Dianne
for coming to our aid in solving our Gmail problem! We could not have resolved
the issues we were having without her help. Many thanks!....B’Shalom…Ellen

Men’s Club
Barry Kanarek, M.D., President - [email protected]
The TBTST Men’s Club will be meeting later this month to
choose its slate of Officers and BOD members for 2015/2016.
As I have mentioned previously this has been a year of restructuring. It is our goal to be able to shortly begin a series
of Sunday morning breakfast programming with topics that
will be of interest across all our demographics. We will update
you in the next edition of the Scroll.
We will of course continue with those events that have traditionally been spearheaded by our Club. These include building the Sukkah, World Wide Wrap and the
Yom Hashoah Yellow Candle Program as well as Men’s Club Shabbat.
This month we will be selecting a Man and Youth of the Year to be honored on
November 15th with those chosen from other Temples in the South Florida Region.
As you may remember we hosted this most successful event at our Temple last year.
Again, on behalf of the Officers and Board of the TBTST Men’s Club we wish
you a Happy and Healthy New Year and expect to have some great programing for
you in the near horizon.
In Brotherhood,
Barry Kanarek, M.D.
What is HAZAK?
by Marvin Kaleky
HAZAK is the new group at TBTST especially for those of us over age 55.
HAZAK is meant not only to enrich the lives of the members of the chapter but
to enrich the congregation at large.
HAZAK chapters have supported the kehillot by participating in services,
volunteering in our schools, designing programs to teach about the Holocaust for
our high school students.
The HAZAK chapters are lay driven and professionally supported, and United
Synagogue has materials and the ability to have a new chapter mentored by an
existing successful chapter to help them through their first year.
Some of the wonderful events held during the year under the sponsorship of United
Synagogue are our Annual HAZAK Shabbat, our one full week in June of Camp/
Elderhostel in the Catskills, and trips to Israel totally designed for the mature adult.
We want you to join us for a wonderful experience in both social and educational
experiences.
Our next meeting will take place at TBTST Tuesday morning Oct. 13, 2015 at 10
am. We hope to see you there.
Please feel free to call me at (954)270-6122.

Why Not Join a
Chavurah?
As part of our New Roads to
Engagement Project, Temple
Beth Torah Sha'aray Tzedek
is encouraging couples or
families to bring their common interests to the synagogue. This is not a religious
group, but a group of family
or friends that want to socialize together. Perhaps it is an
existing group of friends that
you join each month to have
dinner with, see a movie or
attend a play. Any group of
people with common interests can form a Chavurah.
Shortly, you will receive a
brochure and questionnaire
describing this concept,
and asking only for you to
complete and return the
questionnaire to the synagogue office. Based on your
responses, we will form a
group that fits your needs.
Please join with us as we
reach out and engage our
congregation. Watch for our
brochure!
Are You On the
List?
TBTST’s Sunshine Committee notifies email recipients of
the life events of fellow congregants in a timely manner.
The committee sends notices
of births, engagements, weddings, funerals, shiva details
and hospitalizations.
If you would like to receive
notices of Sunshine Joy or
Sunshine Sadness, and would
like to be added, please provide your email address to

Yahrzeit
Yahrzeit is a Yiddish word,
which literally means “time
of year” or memorial. Jews
of Ashkenazi descent use
this term. Sephardim call
this commemoration nahala,
in Ladino. This custom is
widely observed and based
on the Jewish tradition of
commemorating the death
of a relative.
All the Yahrzeit rituals
are deeply ingrained in the
Jewish life. The common
rituals that are performed
in the honorable memory
of the departed soul include
reciting the Kaddish prayer
and lighting a Yahrzeit
candle.
Yahrzeit also includes the
action of donating charity
in memory of a deceased
loved one. Through the
performance of the mitzvah
of tzedakah in the name of
the departed, the merit of the
deed is shared with the soul
of the late relative, as their
memory is enhanced.

Stories in Israel
By Janet Workman
“Every woman has a story”-that was the theme of the women’s leadership tour I recently took of Israel. First, we
learned about early pioneers of Israel- the men and women who rolled up their sleeves and worked the land. Of
course, we visited all the places that a first-timer to Israel should visit. We walked through the water tunnels in
Jerusalem. We prayed at the Kotel and left our prayers in the cracks of the Western Wall. We saw the old city of
Jaffa. We took cable cars up Masada and floated in the Dead Sea.
All along our way, and through the sweltering heat of July, we met incredible people and heard their stories. Some
stories were ancient and Biblical, others historical, still others modern.
On one trip, at the Golan Heights, we met a group of young French men and women. They are “lone soldiers”
who have left their homes to serve in the Israeli army, without ever serving their own county! Their dedication
and love of Israel was inspiring.
At Na Laga’at, we saw a performance by blind and deaf women and men. Each had dreams, hopes, and goals.
Each person had their own story, often heartbreaking, but always moving.
In Tel Aviv, inside the Rubin museum, we learned the story of Reuven Rubin and the early years of pioneering
Israel. Each beautiful painting had a story.
Also In Tel Aviv, we met Tommie, a young “urban ecologist” who showed us her home, shared
recipes and her “hippy-esque” story of conservation. This is her vision of Utopia that includes
composting, veganism and living co-operatively with others.
At the Ethiopian Absorption Center, we met Charad and Nomi, who performed the traditional
Coffee Ceremony, or Buna, for us. Their dramatic stories of rescue and restoration in Israel
brought tears to all our eyes. Their beauty and courage was amazing. The bread they baked
for us was warm and delicious. This encounter is my most cherished memory of Israel.
In the Shuk (market), we met Julie, a 74 year old Egyptian Jewish woman
with a teeny, tiny restaurant off a side street. We entered her kitchen and picked out the dishes we
wanted to try-stuffed beets, rice dishes, lentils, and many other delicacies. The food was brought
to our table by Julie’s family and she entertained us with dancing!
The visit to Yad Vashem was a solemn one. Our guide’s parents were both survivors and this trip
is particularly difficult for her. We heard her story of silence. We also heard the story of Janusz
Korczak, Polish scholar and educator, who died with the children of his orphanage, rather than
save himself.
In Akko, we met women of different faiths at the “Women House for Peace” where it is believed
that peace will only originate and be sustained through women. I personally share this belief.
At Z’Karon Ya’Akov, we learned of the Aaronson family. In particular, heroic woman spy, Sarah
Aaronson, and her incredible story of bravery and sacrifice.
I also had the chance to see my cousin, Ira, and his family in the settlement of Male Adumin. I
learned the story of his daughter Michal, approaching her final month of National Service assisting Alzheimer’s patients.
All throughout my journey, I didn’t just see the beautiful, ancient sights of Israel, but I heard
the stories of her heroes and heroines from the past, present and future. I believe we all have a story to tell and I
am happy to share this story of my education, adventure and inspiration in Israel 2015.

Tree of Life
The tree has always been a symbol of
life and strength in the Jewish tradition. The parts of the tree depend upon
one another just as those in need in
our community depend upon Temple
Beth Torah Sha'aray Tzedek for help
and support.
In the same manner, Temple Beth
Torah Sha'aray Tzedek depends upon
the generosity of our community to
enable us to continue to provide that
support. The Tree of Life is the perfect
symbol to allow us to recognize the
generous donors who, in turn, help
us to continue providing necessary
services to our community.
Consider honoring a friend or relative’s birthday, Bar/Bat Mitzvah, anniversary, etc.
or using this as a memorial gift. By purchasing a leaf for the Tree of Life, you will not
only be helping the Tree to grow, but you will also be helping TBTST to grow, now and
in the future.
There are gold, silver and bronze leaves available at a price of $180.
If you are interested in supporting TBTST, please contact our office and we will gladly
assist you. You can also email [email protected] or make your donation online at

Yahrzeit is a Yiddish word, which literally means “time of year” or memorial. Jews of Ashkenazi descent use
this term. Sephardim call this commemoration nahala, in Ladino. This custom is widely observed and based
on the Jewish tradition of commemorating the death of a relative.
All the Yahrzeit rituals are deeply ingrained in the Jewish life. The common rituals that are performed in the
honorable memory of the departed soul include reciting the Kaddish prayer and lighting a Yahrzeit candle.
Yahrzeit also includes the action of donating charity in memory of a deceased loved one. Through the
performance of the mitzvah of tzedakah in the name of the departed, the merit of the deed is shared with the
soul of the late relative, as their memory is enhanced.
PRAYERS FOR THE SICK
If a relative or friend is suffering from an illness, perhaps you would like to recite a special prayer for the speedy recovery
of the ailing person. Traditionally, the Hebrew name of the sick person and the Hebrew name of the sick person's mother are
mentioned during the prayer. It would be helpful if you would provide us with this information when you make your request.
Prayers for the recovery of the sick are customarily accompanied by a gift to a deserving charity. The merit of this kind
deed arouses God's mercy and His powers of healing. Although any amount is deemed appropriate on such an occasion, a gift
of CHAI - $18 - or multiples of 18 - is particularly fitting when pleading for a person's recovery from sickness.
CHAI in Hebrew means life. The two Hebrew letters which constitute the word - CHET and YUD - have the numerical
equivalents of eight and ten respectively, together yielding the sum of eighteen. For this reason it has become a custom to give
charity in the amount of CHAI when praying for the well-being of a suffering person.
Enclosed please find a contribution in the sum of $______________________________________________________
Please make a Misheberach (Prayer for the recovery) for:

The WECARE community outreach program operates a food pantry that provides over 3,500 bags of groceries each year to our neighbors in need
regardless of race, religion, age, gender or nationality. We could not accomplish this important mitzvah if not for the generous donations we receive year round from caring individuals, organizations, schools, synagogues and businesses in our community. Thanks to United Way of Broward
County, we are also able to distribute fresh produce to needy people through Project Lifeline.
Donations are greatly needed and appreciated to keep our shelves stocked so we can help the many men, women and children needing our
services throughout the year. Currently, WECARE provides enough free non-perishable food and fresh produce to prepare over 65,000 meals for
our neighbors in need.
WECARE also collects small toiletry items, provides free medical equipment loans including wheelchairs, walkers and canes, distributes handknitted items to nursing home residents, and collects eyeglasses and hearing aids that are sent to New Eyes for the Needy. Donations of toiletry
items and medical equipment are very much appreciated.
Facts about Hunger in Broward County
According to Million Meals Committee, there are 19 active food pantries in Broward County inclusive of the Soref JCC WECARE Food Pantry, and
4 active food banks. The Broward Regional Health Planning Council, Inc., Food Security Survey Report notes that 44% of all students enrolled in
Broward County elementary schools qualify for free and reduced lunches. 15% of 56,873 Broward children live in poverty.

I’ll Treat You Like Family
Choosing a doctor to trust with the
care of your eyes, your precious sight,
can be a difficult decision. You want
someone board-certified, professional
and experienced. But you also want a
doctor who will take the time to listen
to you, explain things and treat you with
kindness and respect.
I have been in practice since 1982,
caring for patients with a personal touch. Whether it’s an eye
exam or surgery, you’ll get the best I have to give. You’ll be
treated the way you know you should be.
Like family.

Consider TBTST
for Your Next
Simcha
Your next simcha, be it
a bar or bat mitzvah, an
anniversary party or a
wedding, will be one of
your family’s milestones
– a day you will talk
about for years to come.
You want the day to be
memorable and you want
to look back on it fondly.
That is why when we
built our new building
we created a welcoming
facility for catered events.
Our magnificent new
social hall, our state
of the art kitchen, our
adjoining bride’s room,
and our very attractive
lobby have all been
designed with one idea –
to make simchas that are
celebrated at TBTST those
that will meet everyone’s
standard of excellence.
Our
caterers
are
dedicated to helping to
organize and manage
your event and to
meet your needs and
expectations.
Please contact our
Temple Office (954) 7217600 to obtain more
information about our
caterers and our facilities.
