As we approach the Days of Awe, a time of
reflection and renewal, I am reminded that this
is also a time to celebrate the founding of our
beloved Temple Sholom. In 1867, two years after
the Civil War and four years before the Chicago
Fire would destroy the temple’s first building,
Temple Sholom first came into being.
So began a legacy that continues 148 years
later. Our founders sought to create a sacred
community that promotes faith, spiritual growth,
enrichment of lives, ethical teaching, and lifelong
Jewish learning. These core values remain at the
heart of Temple Sholom’s mission today.
As we count down to our 150th anniversary
in 2017, we have begun brain-storming creative
ways to celebrate our sesquicentennial. And
celebrate we should, for while last year’s
Pew study revealed decreased interest and
involvement of American Jews in synagogue
life, Temple Sholom remains a robust and vibrant
congregation. The visioning process that we
began in 2012 set in motion a series of projects,
programs and people who have truly inspired
us as we approach our special milestone
anniversary.
Recently Boni Fine, our executive director,
gave a presentation on our vision and values work
to a group representing 12 synagogues across
Chicagoland. They could not have been more
impressed by the intentionality of our efforts, the
clarity of our vision of who we are and what we
stand for and the quality, creativity and impact of
the marketing tools we used to communicate to
our congregants.
We achieve this status in so many ways but it
all comes down to relationships. Whether it’s the
relationship you have with our wise clergy, our
welcoming lay leadership and staff or with friends
and family old and new, Temple Sholom truly is a
sacred community that embraces, inspires and
matters.
May your new year be a sweet one for you
and your loved ones.

A New Year.
A New Prayer Book
Senior Rabbi
Edwin Goldberg
rabbiedwingoldberg.com
Harvard professor Clayton Christensen likes to tell the story of the
fast food chain that found about half of milkshake sales occurred in
the morning. These buyers came into the restaurant by themselves,
bought a milkshake and nothing else, and drove away with the
milkshake rather than consuming it at the restaurant. Looking deeper,
researchers learned that the buyers were commuters, and the job of
the milkshake was to provide distraction on a long commute and to
tide them over until lunch. For this job, the milkshake competed with
bananas, donuts, breakfast bars, and coffee. Commuters bought
milkshakes over the competition because milkshakes take a long
time to eat, don’t slosh or leave crumbs, and can be held in one
hand or be put into a cup holder during the drive.
Most of us don’t think of milkshakes as a solution to a problem
(i.e., hunger, boredom, need for convenience) but it turns out they
are a solution and happy is the fast food establishment that knows
the problem its product seeks to address.
Although not a perfect analogy, especially on Yom Kippur,
this insight has been at the forefront of the editorial team of the
new Reform High Holy Day prayer book (in Hebrew, machzor).
We understood we were not creating a book, per se, so much
as a sacred tool that is part of the solution to a problem (or set
of problems). Some may think the problem is how to make
worship better, but that is confusing the solution with the problem.
The problem is how to make ourselves better human beings.
Having said that, we knew creating a machzor would involve the
following givens:
•An unwavering commitment to the equality of men
and women;
•Attention paid to the present-day concerns, fears and hopes of the people who will pray from these pages;
•Fidelity to the ethical dimension of Judaism;
•Embracing of the universal and the particular; and
•An effort to deal with the tension between the historical theology of the High Holy Days (God’s sovereignty and
judgment) and more contemporary beliefs, such as the “theology of human adequacy.”
The High Holy Days are complex by their very nature. That’s
in part because we human beings are complex. Nevertheless
the book is designed as a sacred implement in public worship
without being too complicated. There are many choices to
be made in employing the machzor, but the unifying principle
is simple: what matters is not “mastering” the book but rather
allowing the book to help us experience sacred moments.
I am excited to share the book and the Days of Awe with you soon.
With best wishes for a Shanah Tovah,
Rabbi Edwin Goldberg

STAFF SPOTLIGHT
Rodney Ervin
Facilities Manager
Temple Sholom is thrilled to
introduce our new Facilities
Manager, Rodney Ervin. Rodney
joined the staff last month after spending sixteen
years at Community Counseling Centers of
Chicago (C4). While leaving C4 was bittersweet,
Rodney is excited to be at Temple Sholom. He
has appreciated the warm welcome that he
received from the Temple Sholom staff and
community. One of the things that he enjoys
most about his work is finding potential problems
and working to fix them. In his free time, Rodney
enjoys spending time with family and friends,
working in his yard, and gardening. Whether at
work or home one of the most important things
to him is that he is serving G-d in all he does.
BOARD HIGHLIGHTS

Many projects are underway that are
expected to be completed for the High

DONOR SPOTLIGHT ON GIVING
Michael & Roslynne Supera - Gan Shalom Playground
Temple Sholom members since August of 1964,
Michael (Mickey) and Roslynne (Roz) Supera have
a long history of involvement with our community.
Mickey, a real estate developer, has
taken an interest in our beautiful historic
building, especially in helping to maintain
and improve it. Every summer he makes
it a point to send workers from his
maintenance staff to help with
repairs in and around the Temple
including the parking lot.
This summer the Superas
approached Gan Shalom’s Early
Childhood Education Director,
Heidi Cooper, about completely
renovating the playground
located on the Cornelia side of the building. Plans
for the new space include updated equipment,
new flooring, and new landscaping featuring a
garden for the children to help tend and plant
trees/flowers. In keeping with Temple Sholom’s
commitment to the environment many of the new
features now planned will be eco-friendly and
made from recycled materials.
The new playground is something that the
whole community can be proud of and
enjoy. Gan Shalom parents and children
are incredibly appreciative of the Supera
Family’s kindness. The playground is scheduled to
be completed for the opening day of Gan Shalom.
A date for the dedication, complete with cookies
and lemonade to celebrate with the Superas, will
be scheduled and announced soon.

SEPTEMBER 5
Harry Heller, son of Jon and
Nicolle Heller and brother
to Jack, will become a Bar
Mitzvah on September 5, 2015.
Harry is a seventh grader at Lane Tech
Academic Center in Chicago. He enjoys
playing board and electronic games,
which inspired his mitzvah project, a
“Game-a-thon.” Harry created, marketed
and hosted a fun afternoon of games (and
an exciting raffle) at a nearby community
center. He raised more than $1,000 to
benefit research into Charcot-Marie-Tooth, a
neuromuscular condition that impacts both
his father and brother.
Harry spends most of his free time reading,
playing games or spending time with his
family and friends. He is an avid chess player.
His family is so proud of the kind, funny and
intelligent person Harry has become and
is looking forward to sharing his big day
with him!

with Chicago chef Joey Morelli to cook and
serve meals at StandUp for Kids, a not-forprofit which provides life-saving and outreach
services to homeless and at-risk youth.
Jaden is thrilled to share his Bar Mitzvah
service and celebration with his best friend
Sam Rhodes. The Beltzmans are very proud
of Jaden’s hard-work and achievements

Summer Brainin - SEPTEMBER 26
Summer is the daughter of Bernard and Richele Brainin,
and younger sister to Josh. She will become a Bat Mitzvah
on September 26th. Summer is a 7th grader at Chicago
City Day School. She has been swimming for the Chicago
Wolfpack Aquatics Club for the past 5 years and in addition
to being a nationally ranked swimmer, she has enjoyed the
many friendships she has made from being involved with the team.
For her Mitzvah projects, Summer donated new children's books to
the Ronald McDonald House in Streeterville and in addition, she and
her family prepared and served meals to families staying at the Ronald
McDonald house in Hyde Park. Summer also was involved with the
organization, Soles4Souls, donating gently worn shoes to those in need in
impoverished countries.
Summer's family is extremely proud of her accomplishments and is
looking forward to sharing this special day with her.

Cubs Win The World Series!
In the 1989 film, “Back To The Future Part II,”
characters travel through time from the year 1985
to October 21, 2015. They see giant TV screens,
voice-control technology, and the Cubs winning the
World Series! With two predictions down and one to go,
it’s bound to be an exciting year in Chicago, and at
Temple Sholom as we gear up for our 150th anniversary
in 2017.
Our educational experiences for all ages will be
connected to a theme from Pirkei Avot (Wisdom of
our Ancestors) Chapter 3, Verse 1: “Da meiayin bata,
ul’an atah holeich” - “Know where you came from,
and where you are going.” This year’s visiting scholars
and artists will examine with us the American Jewish
experience, and help us to understand how the past
informs our world today, and who we want to be as a
community.
Samuel Rhodes
SEPTEMBER 5
We are very proud of Sam’s
achievements and the
heart that he often wears
on his sleeve. Sam's parents,
Matthew and Mary Rhodes, and siblings,
Sophie, Stella and Chloe, look forward to
this meaningful occasion.
He loves baseball and has played on
many travel and house baseball teams
since he was 5 years old. For Sam’s mitzvah
project, he’s collecting money and gently
used baseball equipment for less fortunate
children.
Sam is a seventh grader at Bell
Elementary School, and is a member of the
basketball and track team. He plays piano,
is an avid reader and loves the Oregon
Ducks football team. He is passionate about
Camp Kawaga, where he has spent the last
four summers.
Sam is excited to share his Bar Mitzvah
service and celebration with his partner in
crime and travel buddy, Jaden Beltzman.

MEMBERSHIP SPOTLIGHT
Bela Sirota
The first thing you notice about
Bela Sirota is her smile. It lights
up a room, including Temple
Sholom, where she has been
worshiping regularly for almost
25 years. Bela was born in the Ukraine in 1937
and as a small child she immediately knew
the hardships of war and religious persecution.
Her father left home to serve in the Russian army
and never returned. Bela, her mother and older
sister, escaped the Nazi invasion by boarding
a freight train and riding it for 30 days until they
crossed the border into Kazakhstan. They stayed
there until it was safe to return to their home in Kiev.
Despite this difficult start, Bela was an enthusiastic
student and she became a civil engineer.
She had an interesting career in Russia,
traveling to Siberia to work on construction
Sukkot at Sholom
projects,
including
restoring
Chernobyl.
After she met and married her husband,
Yuzya, also an engineer, they immigrated to
Chicago in 1989. They joined the Temple Sholom
family in 1990. Although her husband passed
away in 2008, Bela has continued to be an active
member of our congregation. She volunteers for
the Monday Meal program and enjoys attending
many Temple Sholom events, such as the recent
Millennium Park concert, where she shared her
made-from-scratch cheese blintzes. Besides
cooking a full range of traditional Jewish dishes,
she is also a talented seamstress. She is a movie
maven and frequently attends advance showings
of upcoming films. She loves to read, especially
historical fiction, and if she has any time left,
she’ll be at Orchestra Hall, attending concerts!
