Hadassah Book Group – We have chosen Tevye the Dairyman and the Railroad Stories (Library of Yiddish Classics by Sholem Aleichem and translated by Hillel Halkin). We’ll read Tevye for discussion and you may continue on to whichever other stories you individually are sparked to read; we may or may not be able to cover them all. We will meet Sunday, November 1st at 3 PM at Wendy Berelson’s residence. Please contact Phyllis if you would like a ride.
Hadassah Wine & Chocolate event will be on Sunday, October 18 at 3 PM at Carol & Steve’s house. This annual event is a fundraiser for Hadassah, an opportunity to meet new folks, and a lot of fun!
Weekly Message from our Board President
Are you ready for another? We just had a full weekend celebrating Rosh Hashanah with services Friday night, and Saturday and Sunday mornings. This coming weekend, we’ll have our regular Friday night Shabbat services, and then Rabbi Delcau will lead Saturday morning services. Yom Kippur begins Sunday night, so it’s another big weekend (plus we’ll have Yom Kippur day services on Monday.)
Kol Nidre starts at 7 PM on Sunday night. And as with most of our services, it will be broadcast on Zoom… the Zoom broadcast starts 30 minutes before services (so Zoom will start at 6:30).
Our Zoom broadcasts of our services are also available later on Youtube and Facebook, so if you miss the service, and want to see the recording a few days later, you can.
Yom Kippur day service starts Monday morning at 9 AM. It will run till about noon, and then we usually take a break during the afternoon before coming back to the Synagogue for Neilah and then Break the Fast in the evening.
It’s always a great sacrifice for the Sisterhood to leave the Yom Kippur service early so they can prepare the Break the Fast. And the food always tastes great (it may be because we’re hungry, but the food served is wonderful and disappears very quickly). Rabbi Delcau has been giving the Synagogue his all this week, leading long and complicated services throughout the High Holy Days.
And we’re not done yet… Sukkot is coming up next, starting the following weekend on Friday, September 25. The week after that is Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah, starting Friday, October 2. So if Rabbi Delcau seems a little tired… he’s got good reason!
Our roof work is scheduled to be done any day now. We’re going to suggest that you take a moment to stand outside the Synagogue to admire the work. You won’t be able to see anything since you would have to be up on the roof for that (and we’re not suggesting you climb up). So in your imagination, think of our brand new roof looking very good.
We want to offer our condolences to Denise Bendori and her family. Denise’s mother, Helene Sharon Meizler (Hebrew name Hyha Seta), died yesterday at the age of 84. Baruch Dayan HaEmet.
Also, a quick scheduling note. We’re looking forward to seeing you at services and Break the Fast. Since Break the Fast is a big meal we all share, there won’t be a separate Shalom Dinner this month.
And a reminder – if you want to get on the mailing list for the Zoom links (we send out the links on Fridays), please contact the Synagogue office at [email protected].
Here’s our Yiddish Phrase of the Week:
Er hot shpilkes in tokhes.
He’s got pins in his behind.
Shalom,
