Rabbi Anthony Fratello

Some of you have been with Temple Shaarei Shalom

long enough to remember the few Interfaith Thanks-

giving Services we had. As a participant, I can tell

you it was a wonderful opportunity to come together

with members of other faith traditions and share col-

lectively in our belief that faith in God—however we

may choose to recognize God—can be a powerful

force for good in our world. Sadly, for a number of

factors, our Interfaith Program stalled for a long

time.

That being said, over the last several years, as we all

know, our community has grown and changed.

Moreover, as we all know, over the last several

years our world has become more complicated, more

confusing, more uncertain. This is a time when peo-

ple of faith need to come together to help bridge the

gaps that exist. This is a time when people of faith

need to demonstrate that we can have peaceful coex-

istence, even though our fundamental beliefs and

ideas are different from one another.

As our community has grown and changed, and as

our world has become ever more complicated, the

need to meet with other people of faith has become

more important than ever before.

The first event will be on Sunday, April 16th, and is

being billed as A Day of Faith, to bring together the

Jewish and Muslim Communities of Boca Raton/

Delray/Boynton/West Palm Beach. The plan, as it

currently stands, is to gather together in Boynton to

show our strength and resolve that we will not allow

the challenges that face us as Americans and as peo-

ple of faith, divide us.

The second event will be on Sunday, May 21, and is

a service to honor and recognize our first responders:

Police, Fire Rescue, Sheriff’s Department. Each and

every one of us has a debt of gratitude to these brave

men and women who risk their lives every day to

keep our homes and communities safe. This pro-

gram will be held in East Boynton Beach, at St.

Mark’s Catholic Church.

These events give our community a chance to come

together through things that we hold dear. These

events give our community a chance to come together

in communion and to make new connections. These

events give our community a chance to be a beacon of

hope for a trying time.

I hope you will be able to join us at one or all. For

more information, give me a shout.

Cantor Judith Borden Ovadia

Each week, Rabbi or I chant a passage from the To-

rah at services, either on Friday night or Saturday

morning. One might think this would get tedious

year after year, but there is no end to the lessons and

insights found in every verse of Torah. One of my

favorite passages comes from the story of the Exo-

dus, which we will be reading soon at Pesach. After

God instructs the Israelites to prepare the Passover

sacrifice and make a feast, painting the lintel of their

doors with the blood of the Paschal lamb so that the

Angel of Death will not smite their first-born sons

with the final plague, we are told, “It was a Night of

Vigils, “Leyl Shimurim” for the Eternal God, for

bringing them out of the land of Egypt; this same

night unto God is a a Night of Vigils for the Chil-

dren of Israel throughout all their genera-

tions.” (Exodus 12:42)

This concept of a Leyl Shimurim, a night in which

God stands by and watches, is powerful and unique,

suggesting both the momentousness of the occasion,

and God’s supreme and eternal protection. That

night, the Destroyer is set loose upon the first born

of every Egyptian household, “From the firstborn of

Pharoah sitting on the throne to the firstborn of the

prisoner in the dungeon,” (Ex. 12: 29) This mass

execution, collective punishment, visited upon

Egypt by the Eternal, is the key to the liberation of

the Israelites and leads to the birth of the Nation.

God declares, “This month shall be unto you the

beginning of months, it shall be the first month of

the year to you,” (Ex. 12:2)

So what is God watching over? To make sure that

no Israelite should fall victim to the utter horror that

is occurring that night in every Egyptian house, for

sure. But the painting of the lintel of the house with

the sacrificial blood already confers such protection,

does it not? So why the vigil? I see it as God being

like an expectant father pacing, unable to rest or sit

just before the birth of his child. The vigil kept by

parents during the final hours of labor, when all

the preparations have been made, the gestation is

complete, and the most dangerous part, the pas-

sage between the waters, out of the narrow spaces

(Hebrew: Mitzrayim, also the word for Egypt) is

what remains.

There is a very special traditional custom that has

men or children keeping watch the night before

the Bris of a baby boy. During that night, prayers

are recited, passages from Torah and Talmud are

studied, and food is shared. This is directly con-

nected to the concept of God’s Leyl Shimurim the

night before the Exodus from Egypt, with a

healthy serving of KeinEyinHorah – No Evil Eye

– thrown in for good measure. This fulfills the

command, “This same night unto God is a Night

of Vigils for the Children of Israel throughout all

their generations.”

If you are interested in studying a passage of To-

rah in Hebrew in depth, with the goal of chanting

on a Shabbat evening or Festival morning in the

coming year, please contact me at

[email protected]. I would love

to teach you to chant or “leyn” Torah, using the

trope and/or a recording for you to listen to and

learn from. The only requirement is that you can

read prayerbook Hebrew and are past Bar/Bat

Mitzvah age.

Lisa Cuthbertson

When I was PTO President, I used to say, there

were 2 types of events – one that would build

community and one that would help raise money

and help us build our future. But all these years

later, I find that I was wrong. Yes, there are fund-

raisers like the TSS Shekels – and make no mis-

take, it is a fundraiser – and events like the 2nd

night Passover Seder on April 11th and the Birth-

day Weekend on May 5th-7th – they build commu-

nity. We won’t make any additional dollars. We

make enough to cover the costs, but what we build

in community is the gift we all receive. But then,

there are events like the Lollapajewza concert – it

was both – building community and building the

future. It was absolutely a fundraiser; but I saw

people dancing, I heard people singing – you only

do those things with friends and family – our com-

munity. And then there are events like the Golf

Tournament on April 23rd. I’m so excited that this

year we have a title sponsor with Marcus and

Levine; but it is still a temple wide fundraiser. In

fact, this is one of our biggest fundraisers of the

year – and you get to be with your community. If

you can’t golf, then you’re like me, don’t worry –

you can join us for lunch. This year, thanks to

Lance Berkowitz and his amazing committee, we

have a silent auction! But if you already have a

commitment that day, I do understand; but you can

be a sponsor or a supporter.

I talked about building the future – what about just

for the building? Many know by now that we

have an issue with the roof. We have all been

there with our own homes, and now it’s this home;

and we need some help through our fundraising

efforts.

I hope you will consider how you can help – build

our community and build our future – because re-

member, it’s this roof…..

that shelters us from every storm.

some people can’t provide for their family. I believe this should

B’nei Mitzvah Project: I have taken up two causes, chil-dren and cancer. Many children who are living in orphanages do not have necessities that are taken for granted like clothes to wear. I collected children’s clothing of all sorts. The clothes were packed up and sent to the Foundation of Humanitarian Aid Network in Cali, Columbia where they are given to the children in the orphanage there. I chose to support an orphan-age in Cali, Columbia because I learned through a family friend that children here were especially in need. Additionally, cancer is such a terrible disease that touches too many. We need to do all we can for a cure. With this in mind, I contributed to the Gift of Life Foundation.

Miles Alter, President

There are times when I find myself becoming a bit reflective.

So it was last night when I started thinking about our temple

auxiliaries and what an integral part they play in both the life

and financial health of our congregation.

Whether it’s our wonderful Sisterhood, our PTO, STARY or

our active and vibrant Brotherhood, these organizations include

hundreds of members on their scrolls and offer programs that

enrich, entertain, inform and inspire our congregants.

With these lofty objectives in mind, TSS Brotherhood has dedi-

cated itself this past year to providing a schedule of speakers

and activities that have made a significant impact, socially,

spiritually and financially, on Temple Shaarei Shalom.

We expanded the size of the Sukkah…donated $3,000 to our

scholarship funds…made an annual contribution of $2,500 to

our operating budget. We were honored to sponsor the Can-

tor’s Concert to the tune of $400…and delighted to also

sponsor our recent Purim carnival.

We cruised the western Caribbean for seven days and are cur-

rently planning our next cruise for this coming December.

Thirty-two intrepid passengers have already booked this fabu-

lous voyage on Celebrity, and there’s room for lots more.

Simply call Sand & C travel at 736-3880, or call Miles Alter for

more information.

We hosted programs by the FBI on homeland security and

scams…presented a fascinating talk by a respected medical

expert on Alzheimer’s and Stroke…learned about the origins of

ISIS and the Middle East crisis…and we were educated on how

to stay active and healthy by a local physical therapist.

On April 20 we’ll be tripping the light fantastic when Brother-

hood presents an evening of ballroom dance lessons by two

professional instructors. It’s fun…and it’s free. On May 18 the

Sheriff’s Department will be here to speak to us about personal

safety tips for seniors. This evening could be a lifesaver and

you don’t want to miss it.

Yes, it’s been a busy year. We’ve accomplished a great deal

and are looking forward to even more wonderful programs. Be

a part of it. If you’re not already a member of Brotherhood,

there’s no time like the present.

Have a happy and healthy Passover…whether you’re staying

home or traveling.

JOIN YOUR TSS FAMILY IN CELEBRATING

ISRAEL’S 69TH BIRTHDAY.

REGISTER NOW

Tuesday May 2nd 7:00 PM

We are rapidly approaching the TSS Israel

Independence Day (Yom Ha’Atzmaut) celebration

May 2, 2017 between 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. at Temple

Shaarei Shalom.

A celebration of Israel would not be complete with-

out food—so we will have a falafel bar, Israeli wine

tasting, Israeli snacks and Israeli desserts. In addi-

tion to food and drink we will have videos about

Israel and its place in history and the future, Israeli

dancing and music and a raffle of two Israeli gift

baskets.

The cost will be only $12.00 for TSS members and

$15.00 for non-members. That price includes the

falafel bar, the Israeli wine tasting, the videos, the

Israeli snacks, the Israeli dessert and one raffle tick-

et each.

Many of you have very close ties to friends and

family in Israel, and have visited Israel, but even if

you have little connection to Israel, we know that by

joining us on May 2, you will have a good time, eat

some great food and gain important information

about Israel and its connection to each of us.

To the Congregation of Temple Shaarei Shalom

Judy and I would like to thank you for the warm

welcome we received when we joined the temple

and for the continuing support and friendship

In the past month, our family lost two wonderful

people in a very short time. Judy’s parents passed

away within a week of each other. We notified

the temple and Rabbi Fratello visited us , con-

soled us and helped us with the funeral arrange-

ments. He delivered a wonderful liturgy and alt-

hough he personally didn’t know Abe and Ethel

he spoke as if he did..

But aside from that we received phone calls and

letters support and sympathy from the congrega-

tion , some people that we didn’t even know..

To the members of the congregation, you have a

very unique family here and Judy and I are very

happy to be part of it.

Shalom

Myron and Judy Santo
