This Week's Yahrzeit Observances
We hope that our weekly listing of yahrzeit observances will serve 2 purposes:
1) To remind those who ha
ve the yahrzeit for a second time, much closer to the date of the actual observance
2) To alert friends and acquaintances that someone they know is observing a yahrzeit. We hope that you will show them your support by joining them at our minyanim, and helping to assure that Kaddish can be recited with a minyan

Simchat Torah Honorees
The Ritual Committee is pleased to
announce its selection of the
congregation's honorees for 5778/ 5779
Regina Friedman & Evelyn Baer
Regina Freidman and Evelyn Baer are our two deserving Simhat Torah honorees - the Ritual Committee's unanimous and obvious choice!
Known affectionately as the "Rabbi's Brain Trust", they have stepped up to distribute honors each Shabbat and holiday morning with warmth, dignity and discernment.
Evelyn is a trustee of the Sisterhood, attends the Sisterhood Book Club and the Rabbi's Talmud class, and Regina serves as a trustee of the Congregation and is a regular attendee at morning and evening minyanim.
Together they make a wonderful team, and our shul is the better for their presence and for their dedication.
Please join the Congregation in honoring them on Monday evening, October 1 & Tuesday morning, October 2.
OUR NEW SIDDUR
Come join us on Shabbat and explore our new Siddur.
You can dedicate one or more volumes in memory of a loved one, in honor of someone or recognizing a special occasion.
Please contact the office.
Donations are accepted at $54 per Siddur.
I think the study is referring to a religious upbringing that is not extremist, that is nonviolent, that is tolerant and respectful:

Dear Friends,
As the summer winds down and we prepare for another school year, I wanted to let you know about an exciting new AJC New Jersey program, Leaders For Tomorrow (LFT). It is the kind of forward-thinking program that has me so excited and honored to play a role with AJC New Jersey's volunteer leadership. As a parent, I know how important it is to prepare our children for the challenges they may face on their college campuses, including anti-Semitism and anti-Israel bias. LFT works to develop the skills our children need to be strong Jewish leaders. I urge you to encourage your high school students to apply! More details about the program and how to apply can be found below.
Best,
Sheri Goldberg

Dear AJC NJ Lay Leaders,
American Jewish Committee (AJC) is pleased to introduce to the families of New Jersey, an exciting, award-winning leadership development opportunity for rising high school sophmores, juniors, and seniors - Leaders For Tomorrow (LFT).
LFT will build on AJC's mission to develop young Jewish leaders who can advocate for the Jewish people, Israel and human rights around the world, and serve as positive change agents for their peers and community. AJC's goal is to ensure that graduates of the program enter college with knowledge and confidence to engage in ongoing dialogue regarding anti-Semitism and Israel.
LFT will consist of seven live, interactive training sessions on Sundays from 5:00pm to 8:00pm beginning in the Fall of 2018. These sessions will take place in Millburn, NJ and will include dinner.
Dates of the program are as follows:
October 21
November 18
December 16
February 10
March 17
April 21
May 19
Topics covered will include past and current Israeli affairs, challenges facing global Jewry including the BDS movement, among others, and how to effectively utilize strategic networks in advocacy. These lessons are important for students of all backgrounds as they approach college and are transferable to myriad facets of life.
We encourage applications be submitted as soon as possible. Admission to this program is highly competitive. Participants will be selected based on their application, and one or more subsequent interviews.
The deadline to apply is Friday, September 7. There is no cost to apply or participate.
Please reach out to Dena Dubofsky with any questions at [email protected] or 973.379.7844.
Sincerely,
Rabbi David C. Levy Dena Dubofsky
AJC NJ Regional Director AJC NJ Assistant Director |
