HIGH HOLIDAY BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE
Remember your loved ones in the Yom Kippur Book of
Remembrance
Dear Members and Friends,
The High Holiday Days will soon be
here. It is traditional during the Yom Kippur Yiskor
service to memorialize our loved ones who we can never
forget and who are ever a part of us.
This year, once again, we are
planning to print a Yom Kippur Book of
Remembrance, wherein the names of our dear
departed loved ones will be recorded. Each family
attending the Yom Kippur Yiskor service will receive a
copy of this book. A contribution to our Synagogue, in
memory of your loved ones, is customary at this time.
Please supply the names of those
you wish to have inscribed in the Book of
Remembrance (if you have not listed names before).
Please enclose it together with your contribution.
IF THE INFORMATION HAS REMAINED THE SAME, THERE IS NO
NEED TO REWRITE IT! Please return this information
with your donation NO LATER THAN AUGUST 15, 2010.
On behalf of Temple Beth Or, we
would like to wish you and yours a very happy and
healthy New Year.
If you did not have an entry in
the Book of Remembrance in 2009, please print and
enclose those names with your contribution. INCLUDE
ONLY THE CHANGES OR ADDITIONS NECESSARY SINCE LAST YEAR.
Sincerely,
Barbara
Langer

NEWS RELEASE:
SURVEY RESULTS SUPPORT CHANGE TO EGALITARIAN
At the bi-annual meeting of
Temple Beth Or, it was announced that the Congregation has
decided to go egalitarian. Late in August the Congregation was
sent a survey concerning services at the synagogue. There was
better than a 50% return rate on the surveys. 80% of the
congregation was positive to women being called to the torah.
85% of the congregation was positive to women leading services.
80-85% of respondents indicated they are ready for change and
wanted change. Synagogue President, Barbara Langer announced
that "we want all of you to stay and be a part of this". Rabbi
Royi Shaffin is aware of what a hot topic this is and is very
proud of the congregation. He stated after hearing some debate
that 'we have approached this through conservative
ideology'.
He further stated that Halacha (Jewish law) plainly states that
women can go up to the Torah. It has been tradition that has
prevented women from doing so. He was proud that the
congregation has thought and continues to think this through. He
said further, "We will continue to function as a very
traditional congregation, a traditional egalitarian
congregation."
The change in ritual comes as a
rabbinic decision based on the will of the congregation. Rabbi
Shaffin is beginning his second year as the leader of this 45
plus year old conservative congregation. |
