In total, the delegation will be comprised of approximately 80 members Rabbi Schiftan of the Jewish community (including several Federation staff, rabbis, and others from nearby communities). The Temple’s delegation will represent more than 20 percent of this group. The rabbis will play a critical role in this mission, including a day spent at the Shalom Hartman Institute, focusing on Jewish pluralism, both within the Jewish State and back home in Nashville. The Temple continues to play a major role in this effort of rabbinic cooperation and unity, most recently in hosting an evening panel of rabbis from across the religious spectrum of practice and belief. All were gathered to reflect and comment on Rabbi Jonathan Sacks’ recent book Not In God’s Name, focused on the global threat of religious extremism. Now, we are pleased to announce a new innovative and collaborative effort, specifically with our fellow clergy at Congregation Micah. On two consecutive summer shabbat evenings, June 3rd and 10th, the congregations will combine to celebrate shabbat with worship and song, followed by a shabbat dinner and a program on “Where is God in Reform Judaism?”. The program is offered through the Hebrew Union College, and will include both a video presentation and a subsequent discussion by the rabbis and cantor of both congregations. On Friday, June 3rd, we will gather for services and the program at Congregation Micah, and on Friday, June 10th, we will all gather at Temple for the same sharing of services, supper and subsequent program. On those evenings, there will be only one combined service, at one venue, but shared by both Reform congregations and their clergy. I know it is still several weeks’ away, but because it will be a first, I wanted to make sure we had ample time to let you know of these exciting plans. COLLEGE COMMONS DIGITAL SEMINAR The Last Taboo? Israel from the Pulpit What’s at stake when rabbis see Israel as the third rail? 6:00 pm - June 3rd at Congrega A course of conversations with HUC-JI Where Is God in page 2 ~ March - www.templenashville.org - 615-352-7620 Demographic Trends in Temple Membership The Jewish Federation of Nashville and Middle Tennessee recently released a new demographic survey that indicates a “slowly but steadily growing” Jewish population in Middle Tennessee. More importantly as pertains to The Temple, the synagogue affiliation rate identified in the survey for the Nashville area is roughly the same as the national average. Based on the results of this survey, the first in over ten years, is The Temple experiencing the same or similar trends? Although The Temple has not conducted a scientific survey of the type commissioned by the Federation, the membership information for our current fiscal year (which started on July Ralph Levy 1, 2015) that is reported on a monthly basis to our Executive Committee and Board of Trustees provides insight into the answers to these questions. Although seven months of information is admittedly a very small and statistically insignificant sample size, we have identified several noteworthy Temple membership trends. Trend #1- No Growth in Total Membership:The good news in this area is that Temple membership remains for the most part constant; several other URJ congregations have suffered decreased membership for years. The bad news is that the overall membership of The Temple has not increased. Although The Temple is obtaining its “fair share” of the growing number of Jewish persons in Middle Tennessee, the overall total number of members remains stable since The Temple (as does any congregation) has deaths and receives resignations from existing members. For example, during the first seven months of this fiscal year, we received applications for thirty-five (35) new members. However, during this same time period, our total membership increased by eleven (11) members after taking into account deaths, resignations and suspensions of members by the Board of Trustees. Trend #2- Younger Membership: Even though overall Temple membership remains roughly constant, we have experienced significant growth in “young members”. For example, approximately twenty percent (20%) of our current membership is under age 40. This trend is a result of a very conscious effort to attract younger members to The Temple through, for example, favorable membership pricing to young persons and engaging Rabbi Michael Shulman as Director of Next Generation Programming. Trend #3- Returning Home: The third noticeable trend relates to an increasing number of new congregants of all ages who “grew up” at The Temple and who either have lived outside of Nashville for varying periods of time and are moving back to Nashville or who live in Nashville and are changing congregational affiliations. This pattern became apparent during our current fiscal year in which thirteen (13) of the thirty-five (35) total new member applicants fit into this category. What are the implications of these trends? In summary, these trends bode well for our continuing efforts to attract members to The Temple regardless of age with a welcoming culture and extensive programming and other activities that help establish and sustain the strong sense of connection our congregants have to The Temple and each other. We are encouraged positivewhen results rabbis of our continuing and expanding in these What’s byatthestake see Israel as theefforts third rail?important areas.

It includes “intentional engagement”, the individual’s active involvement in meaningful activities tailored to each individual’s strengths, personal history and interests. Therapists and other well trained staff will encourage resident participation in and leadership of programming including music, movement, art, horticulture, cooking, pet care and numerous activities of daily living. Music has a well-documented ability to enliven individuals with dementia. Individuals with Alzheimer’s disease who are otherwise nonverbal are often able to sing the words to a familiar song, and music is effective in decreasing the frequency of agitated and aggressive behaviors for individuals diagnosed with ADRD. Music engages gross and fine motor skills, and incorporates the following regions of the brain simultaneously: language, affect, reminiscence, rhythm and timing. Drums and percussion instruments are especially appealing because they are expressive, versatile, portable, and easy to play. The Temple’s funds help to provide music, drums and other percussion instruments for use at the center. Remember to bring in your PULL TABS from soda and other cans. Ronald McDonald House uses them to raise funds to support the services they offer as a “home away from home” to out-of-town families with seriously ill children in local hospitals. March 12th- Mazel Tones at Richland Place at 1:00pm The Temple MazelTones (formerly known as the Junior Choir) will be performing a special concert for the residents of Richland Place on Saturday, March 12th at 1:00pm.

Answer: At least one time capsule that contains several Temple-related items is embedded in a building interior wall near the exit door from the corridor that runs in back of Meeting Rooms A and B of The Temple. The Fun Fact that appears in the February, 2016 issue of The View contains a detailed listing of some of the fifty-two articles that are contained in the cornerstone that was laid in 1874 in the Vine Street Temple and that was moved to the new Temple building on Harding Road in 1955. However, little information is available about the contents of the (one or two) time capsules that were embedded in an interior wall of the Temple building on May 20, 2001, over 125 years after the cornerstone was laid in the Vine Street Temple. In addition, Temple records do not indicate if a formal dedication ceremony took place when the capsule(s) were encased in the wall. Here is a partial listing of what we believe to be contained in the time capsule(s): Contribution from Religious School - During the renovation of The Temple, Lynda Gutcheon, then the Educator, gave each Religious School student $1.00 as a Chanukah gift on the condition that each student match the gift and do something with it that would make a difference for others. Upon doing so, each student wrote on a post card what he or she had decided to do or what the student did as a result of the request. The cards from the Religious School students were put into a box for placement in the time capsule(s). Some Other Items Likely Contained in the Time Capsule(s): 1. Women of Reform Judaism pin 2. Selected Congregant Hour presentations 3. Psychedelic Jewish Star Slinky 4. Prayer Books 5.150th Anniversary Calendar 6. Selected issues of Kol Shalom (now called The View) 7. Digital pictures of confirmation classes and of past Presidents 8. Membership directory 9. Selected speeches from post-Confirmation students 10.

We wanted to bring such an experience to our community. Our project is called A Child’s Guide to the City and we are currently in our third year. Each year, Moon and I promote the project through workshops and special meetings with early childhood professionals. Each year we have gotten new participants and have watched the project grow into a very inspirational relationship between the early childhood programs and our community at large. The Temple Preschool has had classrooms participate all three years. HOW IT WORKS: Early childhood teachers will pinpoint an area of interest within their classrooms. They will brainstorm about how they can take this particular area of interest and expand the research to a merchant in our local community. Then, in the early spring, we celebrate the learning and the partnership through a city-wide celebration of exhibits held at the community partner’s establishment. THE PROGRAM IN ACTION: This year, The Temple Preschool has three classrooms participating in A Child’s Guide to the City. Our Shalom Classroom has been researching construction since the beginning of the school year. The teachers found a house, on the street behind our campus that is under construction. They have been taking walking field trips to the construction site. They have met the foreman, the site manager, and many of the construction workers. The children have sketched drawings, discussed theories, interviewed workers and have had the professionals come visit their classrooms to show them the blue prints and floor plans (they even got to keep a copy of the blue prints and use them in their classroom). This class is also obsessed with books. They have had an author and illustrator come to talk to them about how books are written, illustrated, printed and bound. A small group of children are writing, illustrating, and will make a book about the classroom’s construction project. At the end of the project, the classroom will create documentation of their experiences and have a classroom celebration, with their community partners and exhibit their work. I don’t have enough room to go into detail about all of the classrooms’ projects, but I will make sure you know about all of their exhibits so you can have the opportunity to visit them all. The other classrooms projects are: The Tovah classroom has been investing how their bodies move. The focus has evolved from the children’s interest in yoga. They are partnering with The Second Story (Dance) Studio located on Harding Pike. The Kavod classroom is investigating music. This project evolved from the children’s interest in sound and instruments. They are partnering with two bands. One is The Temple’s band and the other is a band from a local church. A special thanks to Cantor Fishbein for working with this class on their partnership with The Temple’s band.
