October 2016 Elul/Tishri 5776/5777 Volume XLVIII, No. 3 Like us on Facebook I am never sure what “on time” means when

from the it comes to the High Holy Days … but this Rabbi’s Desk year, I am certain, they are falling very late

on the secular calendar. Their timing tends to feed our natural inclination toward procrastination. Whether it’s checking to be sure our kids have clothes to wear to services, remembering to order the holiday challah or, in my case, completing that too-often delayed task of finishing my High Holy Day sermons, early or late, come Sunday night, October 2, the ritual begins!

S. Y. Agnon in his epic work Days of Awe tells the story of Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev, who, on the New Moon of Elul, the month preceding Rosh Hashanah, stood at his window watching a non-Jewish cobbler pass by. He asked the rabbi, “Have you nothing to mend?” Answered Rabbi Levi Yitzchak as he wept, “Woe is me, and alas my soul, for the Day of Judgment is almost here, and I have still not mended myself!”

The most observed holidays on the Jewish calendar are Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. We gather in large numbers and recount, as we do every year, the narrative of our people's history. The sacred story describes a Divine Arbiter judging our deeds, deciding who is worthy of inclusion in next year's sepher chayim, the Book of Life. Fervently we pray that we and our loved ones will be granted another year of life and prosperity.

Is there really a Book of Life; does God actually sit in judgment like a “shepherd counting his flock,” as the liturgy so vividly describes? Why have these images gripped our people for generations?

The answer is simple: the metaphor works because what it represents is very real. It is an indisputable fact that no one can predict what next year will bring, therefore we owe it to ourselves to try to live with greater humility, love, honesty, generosity and integrity.

The prayers of the High Holy Days always move me. The liturgy is compelling and persuasive. We can do better, each in our own way. We can find greater happiness, live more purposeful lives and draw closer to those we love.

The High Holy Days have finally arrived. My hope and prayer for you, my friends, is that you will find this year's sacred journey empowering and meaningful; that you will find the images of our people's time-honored stories inspiring and the powerful music and liturgy evocative. From our house to yours, may the New Year bring us all fulfillment, happiness and peace.

Rabbi Robert S. Goldstein

ARTICLES OF INTEREST President’s Message

Musical Notes

Shanah Tovah! I am so happy to welcome the year 5777 with the community of Temple Emanuel. We are already fully engaged in Temple activities – the Religious School has started, Preschool has begun, TEMTY and its younger groups are organizing events and the Board of Governors is meeting as well. It is great to feel the energy in the building as everyone returns to make our space feel like home.

Shanah Tovah u’Metooka, a Happy and a Sweet New Year!

After a lot of anticipation, planning and rehearsals, the Yamim Noraim, High Holy Days are finally here! On Sunday evening, October 2nd, we officially begin the new Jewish year of 5777 with a Rosh Hashanah evening service. During the Aseret Yemei T’shuvah, the Ten Days of Repentance, we perform spiritual, soulful and inspiring music that concludes with N’ilah.

The music of N’ilah is so powerful and moving; it is a great way to end these intense ten days.

As the year begins, I would like to remind each of you to check out the Bulletin, take a look at the website, speak with your friends and take note of all we have going on. Even joining us for just one activity can make your Temple experience more enriching for you, and for those of us who get a chance to get to know you. So, think about joining the Book Group, Mussar Group, our new Men’s Groups or Bible Study if you are feeling intellectual. Join Sisterhood and attend an event or bring your kids to a children’s program, attend the Brotherhood Breakfast for a delicious bagel and fellowship. Work with Bread and Roses or Common Good to help those who could use a hand – or help us expand the opportunities we provide for Tikkun Olam (repairing the world). Let us know if you would like to help out with the Junior Youth Groups. We can always use support with Fundraising – and we are happy to expand our list of involved and engaged members. That is the way we keep our community thriving.

Exactly four days after N’ilah and the conclusion of the Yamim Noraim, we celebrate the holiday of Sukkot that lasts seven days. While the High Holy Days are a time of Chesbon Nefesh, of self-examination, the holiday of Sukkot is about a physical connection to our tradition. We are reminded that in addition to praying, singing and asking God for forgiveness, we also need to take action. Sukkot reminds us that all existence is fragile, and therefore Sukkot is a time to appreciate the shelter of our homes and our bodies. With the conclusion of Sukkot, we have two important holiday events. On October 24, during Shimini Atzeret, the “Assembly of the Eighth Day”, we recite the Yizkor prayer again, just as we did twelve days prior, on Yom Kippur. We conclude Sukkot and Shimini Atzeret with the celebration of Simchat Torah, as we finish and begin again the annual cycle reading of the Torah. This year our Simchat Torah celebration takes place on October 28. It is a double Simcha for me as my son Ilahy joins his 2nd grade classmates for their family service. The Abbas join us as well for this celebration and add their special musical touch to this celebratory service. The Soul Sisters, under the direction of our wonderful soloist Gitit Shoval, have their first performance of the year on Friday Night, October 21st.

So, I challenge each of you to make a resolution for the New Year – come to one more event than you did last year. Your community will benefit from your presence and you will give yourself the opportunity to experience the community that is Temple Emanuel.

Jeff and I send our best wishes for a happy, healthy new year.

Shalom, Gerri Weiss president@templeemanuel.net

YOUTH EDUCATION Religious School News

Preschool News

As you know, we have an incredible group of educators working with your children this year.

Meet Vincent Van Der Linden, Trudy Zakin and Lois Rubin!

Vincent and Trudy are excited to be teaching the Sunday/Thursday Kitah Hey (5th grade) class together for the second year in a row at Temple Emanuel. Vincent lived in Israel for five years and incorporates conversational Hebrew into his lessons. This motivates students to expand their knowledge of Hebrew and enriches their experience during services. Trudy brings 30 years of religious school classroom experience to Temple Emanuel. She helps her students build self-confidence through positive reinforcement of lessons taught. Trudy and Vincent share a passion for creating an engaging atmosphere where students enjoy learning Hebrew fluency and prayer meaning through games and small group lessons; develop an understanding of Israeli life studying its history, culture, geography, and economy; act out Bible stories with comic-book style short story booklets; have meaningful values discussions through the study of Jewish heroes; and experience holiday rituals by sampling foods and participating in special holiday programs. They look forward to another fun and successful year teaching and learning together with their students!

Lois Rubin is starting her 12th year teaching at our Religious School. For the past several years she has been teaching Kitah Gimel (3rd grade). Lois feels that it is a privilege to be the one to introduce her students to the Hebrew alphabet and to see their excitement when they realize they can actually read from the siddur! Lois recently started a certificate program at Hebrew College in "Engaging Interfaith Families in the Classroom".

Upon completion, she hopes to serve as a resource for our faculty members in this very important area. This summer, she created a new, age-appropriate Torah study curriculum for Kitah Gimel. Lois has been a congregant at Temple Emanuel for 20 years. Both of her children, now 23 and 21, were educated at our religious school.

Thank you to Trudy, Vincent and Lois for their dedication and hard work! Our school is a better place because they are a part of our faculty.

Our Preschool is off to a great start. The children are happily exploring their classrooms, becoming acquainted with their teachers, meeting new friends and renewing old friendships. It was wonderful to see how much the children have grown over the summer months!

We have welcomed many new wonderful families to our school and are enjoying our new toddlers, the Chickadees.

This year we have started a new Shabbat tradition at our school.

Rabbi Goldstein, Cantor Idan and our entire school community celebrated Shabbat together with songs and prayers. We plan to continue this celebration throughout the year and hope that many of our parents will join us for this special morning.

October will be a busy month. The children will be learning new Rosh Hashanah songs and feasting on apples and honey for the sweet New Year. We will celebrate Sukkot with Rabbi and Cantor Idan by visiting and having a snack in the lovely Sukkah.

We are also looking forward to Simchat Torah when the children will parade in our hallways waving their handmade flags.

McDonny’s Farm will be visiting our school on Wednesday October 5th bringing with them a variety of farm animals and a pony for children to ride on! Our Open House will be held on Tuesday evening October 18th, from 7:00-8:00PM. Parents will attend a very informative hour that gives them an opportunity to better know their child’s teachers and learn more about their child’s day at school.

Wishing you all a healthy and sweet year.

Warmly, Beth Weisblatt

By the time everyone reads this article we will be in the middle of the High Holiday Season. We had our first Brotherhood Breakfast and it was great to see many new members as well as get re-acquainted with our old friends. Our speaker was Sobhan Namvar, the person chosen to help fight the Opioid epidemic in the Town of Andover. This is an important topic and we had interesting discussions on this important issue. We have a couple of exciting events planned for the near future. First, on October 20, 2016 we will have our first Brotherhood Men’s Night Out at the Great American Tavern in North Reading, MA. Come hang out and have some appetizers and drinks while taking in the Thursday Night Football game. Secondly on November 12, 2016 we will hold our annual Brotherhood Couples Social Night. This has been an extremely popular event and will sell out quickly. This year’s theme is Mexican food and cocktails. We look forward to seeing everyone at these future events! We are also in the midst of our annual membership drive. Please consider supporting the Brotherhood as we strive to bring more great events to our Temple. Here is to a sweet New Year. LASHANA TOVA!

Mitzvah of the Month

Temple Emanuel Jewish Book Club November 3 at 7pm

Mitzvah of the Month is a Sisterhood program that started in 2003. It operates on the premise that by helping others who are in need, we are fulfilling our role in the world as a Jewish community. As a congregation, we fill our brown grocery bags received at Rosh Hashanah and return them at Yom Kippur to benefit our local soup kitchen, Bread and Roses.

In addition to cooking a meal and serving it once a month, this food delivery comes at a time when food donations are most needed. Bread and Roses strives to be a center of hospitality where “bread’ is available to all and where the beauty and dignity of each person is valued. They are grateful that our congregation so generously supports them. If you would like to share your Mitzvah project, please contact me at lcoxschreiber@verizon.net.

HIGH HOLY DAYS 2016 FALL HOLIDAY SERVICES EREV ROSH HASHANAH Sunday, October 2, 7pm FIRST DAY OF ROSH HASHANAH Monday, October 3 Early Service: 9am Late Service: 12 noon Children’s Service: 3pm Tashlich Service (Duck Pond): 4:30pm Evening Service: 6pm SECOND DAY OF ROSH HASHANAH Tuesday, October 4, 10am YOM KIPPUR– KOL NIDRE Tuesday, October 11 Early Service: 5:30-7pm Late Service: 8-10pm YOM KIPPUR Wednesday, October 12 Early Service: 9am Late Service: 12 noon Children’s Service: 3pm Healing Service: 4pm Mincha: 4:30pm Neilah: 5:30pm Estimated conclusion: 6:45pm

A Delicate Matter Every year, following our High Holy Day services, we receive a number of complaints regarding the “saving of seats”. Although we request that people do not save seats, in recent years the practice has become widespread and by some accounts, a bit excessive.

Obviously, if a spouse is serving as an usher, or parking the car, it is expected that a seat would be saved. It is terribly unfair, however, for those of our fellow congregants who arrive early, to find entire rows of seats with tallit stretched over them. Aside from the obvious sacrilege of using a tallit for this purpose, it is not appropriate.

This year, ushers (fellow congregants who are volunteering their time to help our services run more smoothly) will ask you not to save entire rows of seats. Please respect their request and the feelings of our fellow worshippers.

A FEW NOTES ABOUT HIGH HOLY DAY SERVICES This year’s High Holy Days begin on Sunday, October 2.

The Early Rosh Hashanah Service on the first day and the Early Yom Kippur Service will begin at 9:00 am and end by 11:00 am. This shorter, family-friendly service will have all the liturgical components of the service with which you are familiar.

These early services will be led by Rabbi Robert Goldstein, Cantor Idan Irelander and Soloist Gitit Shoval.

Rabbi Robert Goldstein will deliver the sermon.

Our early Kol Nidre service on Tuesday, October 11 will begin at 5:30 pm and will include all the elements of the traditional Kol Nidre service, but with an ensemble of flute, cello, violin and double bass with participation by our Soloist Gitit Shoval and professional choir under the direction of Cantor Idan Irelander.

We will offer child care for those who wish to bring younger children. This service, although somewhat abbreviated, is still an adult service. Because of its slightly shorter length it is also appropriate for older children who can sit through a 90-minute service. It will be beautiful, majestic and inspiring. Congregants of all ages are encouraged to attend either the early or late service.

The 8:00 pm service will last approximately two hours with High Holy Day Soloist, Mark Kagan and choir.

Please note High Holy Day tickets were mailed to congregants in good standing.

Please clear up any remaining and outstanding dues and Religious School financial commitments at this time.

Note that those attending the later Kol Nidre service will not be allowed into the parking lot until 7:30 pm, allowing the early service attendees to safely exit.

Call the Temple Office if you have questions. We look forward to a wonderful High Holy Day season with you.

Duck Pond at the corner of Argilla Rd.

Yom Kippur Healing Service

For more than six centuries, Jews have gathered by bodies of water to participate in a ceremony on Rosh Hashanah known as Tashlich. Tashlich literally means “you shall cast,” and the ceremony is linked to the following passage from Micah:

Please join Soloist Gitit Shoval, her husband and daughter as well as Rabbinic Intern Rabbi Matt Ponak on Yom Kippur afternoon for a service of song and prayer.

God will take us back in love; God will cover up our iniquities.

You will cast all your sins into the depths of the sea.

(Micah 7:19) During the Middle Ages, our ancestors developed the custom of walking to a body of water on the afternoon of Rosh Hashanah where, with the recitation of prayers, they would empty their pockets and symbolically cast off their sins from the previous year. Often they would toss crumbs of bread to the fish, whose never-blinking eyes reminded them of God’s eternal watchfulness.

Join us in a spiritual exercise on Rosh Hashanah at 4:30 p.m. at the Duck Pond on the corner of Argilla Rd. and Andover St. for a brief Tashlich service.

JULIETTE N. KAYYEM

Friday, October 28 at 7:00 pm

In keeping with tradition, an invited guest will reflect on the traditional story of Jonah during the afternoon of Yom Kippur. Juliette Kayyem is an author and host of the WGBH podcast Security Mom. She is also a lecturer at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard, a member of Secretary Jeh Johnson’s Homeland Security Advisory Committee and a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and the Pacific Council on International Policy. She is a former candidate for Governor of Massachusetts and a former Boston Globe columnist.

Formerly, she was the Assistant Secretary for Intergovernmental Affairs in the US Department of Homeland Security and she also served as Massachusetts’ first Undersecretary for Homeland Security.

Her memoir, Security Mom: An Unclassified Guide to Protecting Your Home and Our Homeland was published earlier this year. Given the escalating incidents of worldwide terrorism, Ms Kayyem is a particularly relevant speaker.
