kol: the voice of tby
Temple Bat Yam has two beautiful KOL: THE VOICE OF TBY Torahs. One was the gift from a S EPT / OC T 2014 congregant, the second was a gift from a congregation in Baltimore. Rabbi Susan Warshaw : OUR BOOK OF LIFE 5775 One of the most beloved metaphors of the High Holidays (yes they are almost here) is being written in The Book of Life, the Sefer Chayyim. We pray over and over: Avinu Malkeinu, inscribe us for blessing in the Book of Life. Today we have a Book of Life, only we call it Facebook. Yahoo reports that 1.11 billion people use the Facebook site monthly. On Facebook we post personal profiles, pictures, vacation trips, and news about family, friends and events that shape our lives. Perhaps this modern version of the traditional Book of Life should tell a story that is more about who we really are; perhaps it should be more sophisticated, nuanced, honest. Rabbi Barry Blum writes: “imagine for a moment that your Facebook page, whose content you share on-line with others, serves as your actual Sefer Chayyim, your Book of Life. Does your personal Facebook page serve as a positive and accurate representation of the highest ideals and noble strivings in your life? Remember people will judge your experiences and pictures posted as an expression of how you live your life.” This year, as the High Holy Days draw near, think about making your Facebook page a true representation of who you are. Consider posting on your page a book that you read that inspired you. Share a good deed, a mitzvah that you have done, or a charity that you feel is worth of community support. Rabbi Blum suggests including the name of a loved one or friend for whom you will be saying Yizkor. Remember a Jewish experience shared during this past year or in the past that you always cherish. Include a picture of a Jewish hero, a teacher, or share a bit of Jewish wisdom that helps you get through the day. Consider your actions over the past year, and remember the times you missed the mark and sinned. Maybe you can have a virtual Tashlich page, where you throw away your sins, having learned from your mistakes. Many of us spend a lot of time on Facebook. We share our trivial lives and experiences with others. I invite you to consider, in this New Year of 5775, enriching your Sefer Chayyim, your Facebook Page of Life. May you strive to incorporate Torah (teaching/learning), Avodah (service to a higher being), and Gemilut Chasidim (acts of loving kindness) and post these important components. May you each have a sweet New Year, a year filled with joy, blessing, good health, forgiveness and renewal. L’Shanah tovah! Page 2 PRESIDENT CANDY GUSST : My first month as president of the congregation has been very difficult on a personal level. Most of you know that my mother passed away a couple of weeks ago. This was the first time I had such a loss while living full time in this area. The outpour of support was just amazing: phone calls, emails, cards and donations are still coming in. The caring and concern I feel from our congregation is overwhelming. Barry and I thank you all for your good wishes and strength you have given us. Now, as new presidents generally do, I’d like to tell you a bit about myself. When I was a senior in high school I wanted to be a secretary when I graduated. That’s what many girls did in “the olden days”. My parents convinced me to go to Temple University to become a teacher. Being an obedient child, I did what my parents asked of me. It was a good decision. While in my senior year Barry and I married. I taught in the Philadelphia school system, mostly first grade (I was taller than my students), for almost four years. I had to resign when I became pregnant. I had my two sons within 15 months, Paul and Adam. Not working outside of the home was difficult for me so I joined the local PTA and before you knew it I was president of the group. When my boys were in school full time I worked at a couple of jobs part time. Being home with the boys was really important to me. One day I walked into our local bank branch of PSFS and on a whim applied for a position. I started as a teller and was in the training department before a year was up. Eight years at that bank before the FDIC closed them down (not because of me). It was obvious that PSFS was going to be shut down so I went to St. Joseph’s University earning an MS in Training and Organizational Development. I went over to Beneficial Savings Bank just down the street and became the head of the Training Department. By the time I retired (almost 25 years in banking total) I was the head of three departments, ran all volunteerism, and was responsible for education of over 700 employees and much more. My title was now Chief Learning Officer and my rank was Vice President. I had a dream job. Upon retiring, I announced to Barry it was time to move full time to Ocean Pines where we had a home for 12 years. We belonged to Temple Bat Yam as associate members for those 12 years so our transition here was an easy one. Marion Longberg was the Sisterhood president at the time and got me hooked on Sisterhood where I served as president for several years. Then one day Larry Pack asked me to be his executive vice president. Wow! What a surprise that was. He told me there wasn’t much to do. Okay, the surprise was over. When Larry completed his term as president, the natural order of things was for me to take the position. So, here I am. I take the position of president of the congregation very seriously and invite you to contact me if you have any ideas or thoughts that you would like to run by me. This is our Temple Bat Yam and we need all of us to keep it bright and alive. Page 3 A Message from the High Holy Days Coordinating Committee It’s only a matter of days before we enter into the High Holy Days season, and there’s still information that needs repeating. In an effort to help you wrap up the loose ends, we send you these quick reminders. HIGH HOLY DAYS SEASON 2014/5775 CALENDAR OF SERVICES AND EVENTS SELICHOT SERVICE Saturday, September 20 8:00 pm Selichot Service “an important Jewish belief is that GOD wishes us to turn away from sin and that God helps us do so. The High Holy Days focus almost exclusively on this idea, which is called “teshuvah”, a Hebrew word that means “turning away from sin” Many Jews prepare spiritually for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur by attending a special service called “Selichot” (forgiveness). The Selichot service is designed to help worshipers direct their hearts and minds to the process of teshuvah. The Selichot service is traditionally held on the Saturday evening before Rosh Hashanah, in order to give people a chance to reflect on the changes of behavior that they wish to make. WE WILL START WITH DESSERT AND SOCIAL TIME WE WILL MARK THE CLOSE OF SHABBAT WITH HAVDALAH WE WILL PARTICIPATE IN SELICHOT WITH ITS MOVING WORDS, AND MAGNIFICENT MUSIC Know that in previous years we have heard many responses to Selichot – Many have called this service their most moving and inspirational religious experienceThere is NO BETTER WAY to prepare yourself for the DAYS of AWE!

Thus, it was thought, an individual could cast off his sins which would be washed away by the flowing water, allowing him to start the New Year with a “clean slate” Bat Yam Congregants will perform this ancient ritual on Rosh Hashana afternoon, the traditional time to observe Tashlich. Join the group and help build memories and traditions for your family.

Becky Brunet, Religious Education Chair Page 6 THANK YOU BENEFACTORS AND PATRONS: Platinum: GLORIA NESTLER JAY AND CHERYL TAUSTIN JEFF AND RINA THALER BRUCE AND CYNDI LEINER PETER AND REBECCA ZWEIGBAUM Diamond: JONATHAN AND TERRY BELL HAL AND CHRISTINE GLICK LEE AND JENNIFER KLEPPER Patron: DEBBIE RESNICK GRAYCE COHEN CAROL SCHACHTER DO YOU KNOW THE HISTORY OF OUR STAINED GLASS SANCTUARY WINDOWS? The beautiful stained glass windows in our sanctuary were the work of members Pamela Smolins, Eleanor Goldsmith, Elaine Levy and Eve Waldman. Congregation members were distracted during services when the original glass windows revealed traffic passing by. So our first Rabbi – Richard Sternberger – came up with the idea for the stained glass windows. The theme of the new windows was inspired by Rabbi Sternberger. He was strongly influenced by Franz Rosenzweig’s writing in which it was declared that the three pillars of Judaism are Creation, Revelation, and Redemption. The window on the left (facing the bima), depicts Creation by displaying birds, fish, and plants, and animals and people. The words Ki Tov (meaning “It is good”) appear in the stream. The people represent humankind’s partnership with God. This window was designed by Eve Waldman. The window above the Torah ark depicts Revelation, represented by the burning bush, and the law, represented by the Torah. The building to the left of the burning bush is our Temple, because according to tradition, we were all at Sinai. This window was designed by Elaine Levy and Eleanor Goldsmith. The stained glass window to the right of the bima depicts Redemption with its glowing Sabbath candles, white peace dove, unfolding Torah scroll, and a rainbow arcing over Jerusalem. Eleanor also designed this window. Pamela Smolins undertook the six-yearproject to craft the windows. It required cutting and placing over 6,000 individual pieces of glass. Pam and Stu donated all of the glass and materials, labor and installation. Years later, we are all beneficiaries of these moving pieces of art gracing our sanctuary and providing reminders of our Jewish legacy for years to come. Page 7 ADULT ED IN THE NEW YEAR 5775 We have an exciting year of Adult Ed planned for Temple Bat Yam. Please come and take advantage of the learning opportunities we have planned.

This is the second series of classes on Israel produced by the Hartman Institute where Rabbi Warshaw is a Senior Fellow. A year ago we studied using the Engaging Israel course. This year, in the spring (dates TBA), we will learn about the different groups of Jews who make up the Jewish people and how their approaches to religion, community, politics make Israel such a dynamic and also challenging society. The course consists of lectures by leading Israeli thinkers on DVD’s, and class readings and discussions. Please join us for this exciting and thought provoking series of classes. long term health care and estate planning seminar TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 2014 7.00-8.30 PM Our congregant Andrew Benjamin will speak on long term healthcare and ways to finance it Cynthia Malament will speak on wills, trusts, powers of attorney and estates Please join us for this informative and important session!

She came with her mother, Deanne, directly from Odenton, Maryland, where she trains as a gymnast at the Win-Win Gymnastics studio. Sarena has been training there for three years and is now in the highest level 10. She started in gymnastics at age 4 at Twisters in Berlin, and attained level 7, the highest level available there. The family made the decision to continue her training at the more advanced gym in Odenton. Sarena spends her morning as a home school student, and trains six hours a day, four days a week, from 1 till 7. Extensive training leaves little time to pursue other activities. She has traveled to exciting competitions in Texas, Indianapolis, Florida and Atlanta, Georgia. Her goal is to work towards attaining a scholarship to attend a division 1 college with a gymnastic program, possibly in Georgia, or Florida. She would like to compete in the Bahamas. Recently she attended the NCAA showcase in New Jersey where scouts see the skills and abilities of the gymnasts. Her ideal role model is Aly Raisman, an Olympic Gold Medal Gymnast. Sarena is very excited about her Bat Mitzvah and confident that she is well prepared. Her parents are Deanne and Lawrence Michnick. Larry was formerly president of Temple Bat Yam. Josh, her brother, was Bar Mitzvahed at Temple Bat Yam. Her Mitzvah project is to raise money for MADD, Mother’s Against Drunk Driving. Congratulations and Mazel Tov to Sarena and her family on her achievements. We look forward to hearing more about Sarena’s future accomplishments. Submitted by Carole Eagle Page 10 LIBRARY CORNER Let’s start this report with the announcement that the “A Sip of Wine, A Nibble of Cheese, and the JEWISH ARTS” program, originally scheduled for early September, has been re-scheduled for October 26, 2014. There are numerous reasons for this re-scheduling, not lease among them, a number of Congregant comments regarding the “too early in the season” time frame for this event. We have re-thought and we recognize the many demands placed on all of us during the High Holy Days period. Jeri Lipov, the “Star” of the Arts program has most graciously allowed the date change. We so appreciate the effort Jeri has put into the preparation for this much anticipated event. Please mark your calendar, now. Be with us on Sunday, October 26 at 4:00 PM. Since our major fall event has been rescheduled, the Library re-dedication has also been re-set. We will open our doors on the newly renovated Levy Library on the day of Jeri’s Art Program. We look forward to showing you our new layout, and introduce you to our newly defined book sections. Our aim has been, and remains, to make our facility more “user friendly”, a place you will enjoy visiting and browsing. Meanwhile, work goes forward. Finally, we thank the congregants who responded to our plea for new Library Crew members. Newly connected members of the Crew are: Carole Eagle, Lynn Neidenbach, and Ellen Reitkopp. They join veteran Crew members: Carol Schachter, Janice Spieler, Enid Levine, Leslie Segall, Hilda Plisko, Marcia Hirsch, and me, Grayce Cohen. We send you warm wises for a Healthy and Happy New Year, full of good books to read and enjoy. We’ll be back with Bagels and Books, just as soon as we finish the work at hand. Don’t forget to tell a Crew member if you are reading (or have read) a book that you feel would make a good subject for our reading, and making a Bagels and Books selection. It is our pleasure to publicly thank Arleen and Don Pace for gifting the Library with both the book and the video of Simon Schama’s “The Story of the Jews”. We are so pleased to have this worthwhile work. mark your calendar – Jeri Lipov will take us on a captivating journey through the history of our people’s ART!!! HERE WE GO AGAIN!!! Steven Cohen It has been almost 75 years since Kristallnacht and the beginning of the Holocaust in Europe, but it appears anti-Semitism has again raised its ugly head in Europe. This continues centuries old anti-Semitism in Europe. Four weeks of fighting between Hamas and Israel has fueled a rise in anti-Semitism outbursts across Europe, ranging from violent attacks to chants of “Death to the Jews” at anti-Israeli demonstrations. In Germany and other European countries-especially France which has a large Jewish and Moslem population-Jews have been attacked on the streets, synagogues have been bombed, Jewish groups have received hate mail and anti-Semitism slogans have been spray-painted on buildings. In Turkey-a mostly Moslem nation-Prime Minister Recep Erdogan, who is running for president, has accused Israel of aggression similar to that of Adolf Hitler. One must remember that the word semitic originally included people living in the Middle East including Arabs and Jews in the Middle East. But now this anti-Semitism seems to have been recharged by the Middle East conflict. Why are not the religious leaders in the churches and mosques condemning these actions. We can’t turn a deaf ear to this behavior. Politicians and religious leaders must take the forefront in stopping this behavior. S Page 11 LOOK AT WHAT OUR TBY YOUTH HAS BEEN UP TO: ummer has nearly passed and it was hot! We have had very busy months leading up to our time off of school! May and June we prepared for school’s end, two Bar Mitzvahs and the preparation of our first youth group meeting and event together. Now we have nearly reached September and as we prepare for school’s beginning i’ts time to get together again! In Sum….. May brought us an end to an amazing school year of B’nai Mitzvahs filled with beautiful and well read Torah services followed by fun and well-earned celebrations. We began the year with Acacia Nichols’ Bat Mtizvah in September, followed in October by Harry Heller and, in December, by Hallie Friedman. Twenty Fourteen brought us Alex Schachter in February and Gabe Dunn in March. This brings us to May when Joey Bernstein and Aiden Nichols read their Torah portions and became part of the new and thriving TBY Youth Group. Set up for Sukkot is on the schedule for Sunday, September 28th. We want to schedule our Spaghetti Dinner, too. Sunday October 12th is the “Walk for a Cure” let’s support however we can.
