The Rabbi Writes ...

The Bar or the Mitzvah? There is a growing concern among some Temple mem­bers and within the Reform Movement about BarlBat Mitzvah parties. In the words of a recent resolution of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, the parties too often become "excessive and inappropriate celebrations ... occasions for idolatry and the relentless commercial colonization of our sacred events," examples of "excesses of wasteful consumption ... glitzy theme events, sophisticated entertainment and expens� VC }idLY favors." They often force families to spend way beyond their means; and besides, they usually are not very Jewish.

This particular resolution calls on the UAHC to promote celebrations characterized by "family cohesion, au­thentic friendship, acts of tzedaka, and parties suitable for chi1dren." It also suggested that Temples consider the creation of guidelines.

There is nothing wrong with a BarlBat Mitzvah party. Actually, it is an expression of a very wonderful tradi­tion known as the s'udat mitzvah, literally the "mitzvah

Th()ughts From The Cantor

ACTIVITY IN THE CANTOR'S CORNER The calendar has been so busy the last few months. What fun it has been to make music with the new Temple B'nai Or Children's Choir! I am so proud of the work they have done. In addition to being motivated, sweet, committed, and talented, they have managed to sing in Yiddish with flair! They are getting better by the minute!

This year the Adult Volunteer Choir has been producing some pretty fine and impressive sounds. As always they take on the musical challenges with spirit and commitment. During the next two months they shall participate in some special services.

I have received great satisfaction from teaching the inquisitive persons who have attended the Prayerbook Class that is held on Sundays at 12:00 noon. We are studying the structure of our prayers, their history and meaning . You really don't need to have any knowledge of Hebrew in order to understand. Call me with any questions I have many thoughts concerning a class for next year and I'd like to know who is interested.

Last, but not least, it has been a pleasure to work with the Confirmation Class of 1993. They will share their thoughts and talents with you on May 23rd. It has been very gratifying to get to know them and to see their growth as people and students throughout the year.

YASHAR KOCHACHEM!! MAY YOU ALL GROW FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH!!

m ...... frwrt tile Preatdeftt MAY EVENTS With the Blizzard of '93 behind us, May begins with the wonderful Cantorial Concert on May 1. If you attend only one concert this year, Cantor Staiman's "Nostalgic Journey" should be that concert. Join the congregation in this highly anticipated event!

Add to your MUST DO list for May the ANNUAL CONGREGATIONAL MEET­ING on May 20. As a member in good standing and a partner in the success of Temple B'nai Or, come and participate in our annual meeting. You'll meet your friends and share in very important events: electing your new Officers and Board of Trustees; adopting the balance of a new constitution; reviewing the budget for the 1993-94 fiscal year; reviewing our activities this year and plans for the coming year. Congregational attendance has been "modest" in past years. We urge you to come and share in your Temple's direction.

Also, please highlight the Food and Clothing Drive scheduled for May 2 - May 9. Make it a family Mitzvah to help others who are less fortunate. Share and help others suffer less.

Looking forward beyond May, please think of all that Temple B'nai Or means to you as we begin to make plans for two very important activities. The first is a revitalized Endowment Program that Past President Marc Allen has agreed to direct. A successful endowment program will help assure the health of your Temple in future years. Without an endowment program, we will be subject to annual budget problems and will have insufficient funds to draw upon for major financial requirements. We will be developing a complete program during the next several months. Please contact Rabbi RossotT, Marc Allen, or myself if you

Faithfully Yours An Open Letter To President Clinton Concerning Jonathan Pollard We, the undersigned rabbis, represen­tatives of the broad spectrum of the Jewish religious community, wish to voice our plea for justice for Jonathan Pollard.

We in no way condone acts of espionage or any violation of our country's laws. We nonetheless call upon you, Mr. President, to recognize that the life­time sentence imposed upon Jonathan Pollard is unduly harsh and grossly inconsistent with the punishment given to other Americans convicted of simi­lar and even worse crimes.

We therefore call upon you to demon­strate your commitment to justice by commuting Jonathan Pollard's sen­tence to the time, almost seven years, he has already served. This would be consistent with, indeed, longer than, sentehces typically imposed by Ameri­can courts for similar offenses. Jonathan Pollard's sentence should appropriately reflect the punishment that is commensurate with his crime.

Signed by the Presidents of the Semi­naries and the President and Executive Vice President of the Rabbinical orga­nizations representing Conservative, Reconstructionist, Reform and Ortho­doxJudaism, and by Rabbi Donald B. Rossoff

EM OR Leviticus 21:1 - 24:23

Following the responsibilities of the Biblical priesthood to remain ritually and morally pure is a description of the Biblical holy days. First among them is the Shabbat. The first of the three Pilgrimage Festivals is Passover, feast of unleavened bread. Mter Passover are seven weeks of bringing barely offerings (the "Omer"), culminating in the festival of weeks, Shavuot. The third of the three festivals is celebrated at the final harvest by taking lulav and etrog, and living in booths, Sukkot. At harvest time we are commanded to give the poor thei r due. The two nonagricultural Holy Days are also commanded: Rosh Hashana, a day of the sounding of the shofar and Yom Kippur, Day of Atonement, a day of self-denial and expiation.

May 14-15 BEHAR-BECHUCOTAI

Leviticus 25:1 -27:34

In this week's Torah portion, laws concerning economicjustice and equality; The Sabbatical year in which the land itself observes a year of rest every seventh year; the Jubilee year every 50 years in which slaves are freed and land is returned to the original tribal owners ("Proclaim liberty throughout the land unto all the inhabitants thereof!"); the command to lend money to the needy without interest.

May 21 -22 BAMIDBAR

Numbers 1:1 - 4:20

This portion begins the book of Bamidbar (In the Wilderness). A census is taken of the Israelites, hence the English title of the book, Numbers. The tribes are assigned their encampment positions for the journey to the land oflsrael. At the center of the camp will always be the Tabernacle, the physical token of God's presence in their midst. The Levitical families are given their individual responsibilities in the transporting and functioning of the Tabernacle.

May 28 - 29 NASO Numbers 4:21 - 7:89

The initiation of the Tabernacle continues with the ceI1sus of the Levitical families and a description of their ritual responsibilities. Laws concerning N azirite vows and the suspected adulteress are also given. The sons of Aaron are instructed to pronounce the "Priestly Benediction" over the people: "May the Lord bless you and keep you ... "

Summary Of Board Of Trustees Meeting Minutes Thirty-one Board members were in at­tendance on March 8 to hear about, advise and guide the Temple's direction for another month.

Irv Gozonsky presided over the meeting and named the committee who will ne­gotiate the Cantor's contract.

Treasurer, Phil Kaufman explained that the 1993-94 budget will be presented in April. Cantor Staiman told of the suc­cess in ticket sales for the concert and Richard Burgh reported on the popular Men's Club Tennis Party.

Rabbi Ross off requested that everyone be sensitive to the Jewish holidays when planning events. He also spoke of the Religious School's parent/student pro­gram on AIDS presented by outside experts.

Wendy Fried discussed the progress being made on the Educa tor search com­mittee. She felt they needed the leeway to offer a multi-year contract. A motion was offered in that regard, but follow­ing an emotional debate, was tabled.

The acting administrator mentioned the - .

building is now open on Tuesday eve­nings until 10:00 PM for meetings, but must be scheduled through the office. She also informed the Board that the new employees continue to be working out well.

Bar or the Mitzvah? Continued from Page One

meal." This is a celebration held to extend and enhance the joy of a family member's fulfillment of a mitzvah, e.g., brit milah, barlbat mitzvah, wedding. Ideally, the party should reflect the values and financial situation of the family. And yet, so often, parents find themselves under a great deal of pres­sure: from the children to imitate what their friends might have had; from fam­ily, business associates and friends to "keep up with the Cohenses"; as well as from the desire to make everyone else happy. We at Temple have been addressing these issues more and more. It is impor­tant to do so, not only because of the money that is spent but because of the messages that are given as to what is really important. As I say in a letter to families preparing for BarlBat Mitzvah: the values that the party expresses are a more powerful statement than any spoken lessons we could im­part to our children!

To help families create the most mean­ingful BarlBat Mitzvah experiences, we have begun to distribute to the families of Sixth Grader a wonderful new book by my friend and classmate, Rabbi Jef­frey Salkin, Putting God on the Guest List: How toReclaim the Spiritual Mean­ing of Your Child's Bar or Bat Mitzvah, as well as the issue of Reform Judaism MaiAzine discussing the issue. We hope that each family will give these tools careful consideration when planning their "simchas." This, of course, is a very personal/famil­ial issue. I would like to open up a dialogue on the issue. What do YOU think about the UARC resolution and the issue of BarlBat Mitzvah celebra­tions? What have been the most mean­ingful experiences in your family and with those celebrations you have at­tended? What are the pressures you feel or felt? What are the values that you think should be expressed by the celebration? Write to me and in the coming months. We will publish ex­cerpts of your responses. I look forward to hearing from you.

The second event is the celebration of Temple B'nai Or's 40TH ANNIVER­SARY in 1994. Our Temple was founded in 1954 and we're approaching a special time, a grand celebration complete with fond memories, stories, and special events. That's the good news, now we need your help to make our 40TH AN­NIVERSARY truly outstanding. We're reaching out to our entire congrega­tional family for volunteers to help in many ways, too many to list here. Just call the office, or Rabbi Rossoff, or my­self. We need to begin making our plans now for the grand 40th. rn be looking forward to seeing you at the Concert and at the Congregational Meeting.
