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. |
