Rabbi’s Reflections
“For the New Secular Year and the New Decade…”
Indeed, it does take a village to raise a child. The notion of community
is paramount in Judaism, and for thousands of years, the synagogue
has been the home base for nurturing, educating, uplifting and molding
our youth. Our Congregation Beth Shalom Community is an extended
family, as we share in the privilege and obligation of educating our
youth and providing a meaningful environment to navigate through life’s
vicissitudes. Additionally, synagogue community means being there for each other at times of joy and
times of sadness.
A focal point of our CBS community is our religious school and Hebrew school; and another major focus
is our Sabbath services and worship experiences. Together with the leadership of our Principal Michelle
Weinberg, we are further strengthening the connection between the schools and services by reinstituting
religious school opportunities within Sabbath observances for our youth and their families. We hope and
pray that this can be a real commitment for the new secular year and the new decade…
At least once a month, we hope and expect that every religious school student and Hebrew school
attendee will join with their families at Congregation Beth Shalom Shabbat services. It was a blessing to
see so many attend last month for our Chanukah/Shabbat celebration, with well over 75 in attendance (it
was also wonderful to see a number of our congregants at the Rose Medical Center community
Chanukah celebration, where over 3000 people were in attendance!)! Also, join us for the magical Tu
B’shevat family Seder on Sunday, January 31st at 11:30am. Celebrating with your community; gaining a
greater sense of community; becoming more familiar and comfortable with the Sabbath liturgy and
services; preparing for upcoming B’nai Mitzvah; spending sacred time with family and friends; enjoying
delicious food at the Oneg Shabbat or Kiddush; honoring your Jewish roots and connections; are to be
garnered and yours for the taking.
Indeed, this is a win-win-win situation—spending quality time with your family, connecting up to your
Congregation Beth Shalom community, and forging meaningful Jewish expressions.
We greatly hope that you will support these endeavors. We want to be special partners helping to raise
and nurture your precious children. We hope to see you around Congregation Beth Shalom for Jewish
education and Sabbath observance and services.
With wishes for a happy, healthy, meaningful, safe and prosperous 2010

Hebrew / Sunday School
From Michelle Weinberg, Hebrew / Sunday School Principal
2010...hard to believe it is here already! A
Big Todah Rabbah to the Kayen family
for all of their help and support for the
Chanukah Bazaar! A healthy todah
rabbah to the Slate-Allen family and the
Kayens for their help with the Rosh
Hodesh gift wrapping at Barnes and
Noble. The Chanukah dinner was a huge
success and the teens had a fantastic
time at our game night!
Hebrew School on Sundays is
working out well for everyone. Classes
are well attended and the students are
making great progress. Religious School
has been busy! With so many projects
going on for Chanukah, our classes were
fun-filled.... playing dreidle, singing songs, eating donuts and latkes!!!
January is a busy time for us! Classes begin again starting January 10, 2010. We will not have
school on the 17th as it is Martin Luther King weekend. Our Tu B'Shevat seder has been moved to
January 31st. The Tu B'Shevat seder is always a wonderful event. So mark your calendars... for a
fun filled luncheon after tasting so many fruits and juices .The seder is from 11:30-2.
February 27th is our annual Purim celebration. Our Shalach Manot baskets are always fun to
bid on, dinner will begin at 6 PM and our festive costume parade will be part of our 7 PM service. Plan
to come to hear the Megillah reading and a skit by Rabbi and me! We should have a fantastic turn out
as Purim is on Saturday night and no school on Sunday the 28th!! Start planning your costumes now!
Purim is always such a fun holiday for the entire family. We will have delicious Hamantashen for
dessert! There will be more flyers coming out about Tu B'Shevat and Purim. Wishing you all a
Shannah Tovah for a Happy Healthy Secular New Year!
B'Shalom,
Michelle S. Weinberg, Principal

Library and Discovery Center
The Library and Discovery Center News…….from Miss Mimi
Excitement is in the air for several special events. On February.13th, CBS will have its second
“Havdalah Live” Saturday night program. Hal Aqua will be performing for us a very short Havdalah service,
and provide very festive music to sing and dance to in our sanctuary. Hal is a professional songleader, prayer
leader, musician, and teacher. Accompanied by guitar, mandolin, Middle Eastern lutes and hand drums, Hal
draws people into a most enjoyable participatory, uplifting experience for all religions. During our social time,
tasty refreshments will be provided. Please join our CBS families on February 13th, at 6:30 p.m. for a most fun
family event. There is no charge to attend this program.
Tu B’Shevat News
A very special program in celebration of Tu B’Shevat is the visit of Hilde Wexler. Hilde is a renowned
Denver artist, exhibiting many of her works throughout Denver, and winning awards. She will be coming on
January 31st to demonstrate her artistic technique in making “trees” and nature scenes in celebration of Tu
B’Shevat. More information will be following. A school Tu B’Shevat contest sponsored by the library will also
be started.
Purim Dinner and Service Celebration
On February 27th, CBS will continue its special tradition of collecting goods from each of our school
classes, for our charity “shalach manot” baskets. We will again have our silent auction for them. Also, Anne
the Clown will again be here to do her unique face painting. Anne really does a wonderful job with our
children. Everyone is invited to attend this family fun Purim event.
Our library is open 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon every Sunday. If you need a different time to visit us, please call
Miss Mimi at (303) 791-6070. If you have a special request for a book, again, just let Miss Mimi know.
Don’t forget we have several new Tu B’Shevat and Purim books in our children’s library. . Come check us out!
Lastly, we all had a wonderful time at Havdala service. It was a special evening for all of us.
Wishing you all a wonderful Tu B’Shevat and Purim!

Sisterhood/Brotherhood
Bagel Brunch Club – Formerly Men’s Club
Come and enjoy some great company and yummy food - both men and women are very welcome. Dues
for this monthly event will be $36 per year, to be paid with the September billing (Sep - Aug membership
period).
The Bagel Brunch Club is primarily concerned with eating and talking, but regularly lends a hand in other
shul matters; like setting up and taking down tables and chairs, distributing and retrieving prayer books for
High Holy Days, cooperating with the Sisterhood for joint programs, and did I say, eating and talking?
Historically, we have had about two dozen men (and occasional women) attend the monthly brunches
through out the year. Any single meeting typically involves about 12 to 15 people. Certainly enough for
lively conversation, but with plenty of room for anyone else who would like to join in.
Bagel Brunch Club Buffets
When: At 10:00 a.m. the first Sunday of every month (unless it conflicts with a holiday, at which time it
moves to the next Sunday).
Where: In the café at the shul
What: The menu includes the following –
Nova lox
Einstein’s bagels variety (toasted and untoasted)
Whipped cream cheese (plain and onion-chive)
Kosher dill pickles
Greek olives
Tomatoes, onions, capers
Coffee, juice, pop
Occasional fresh fruit or sweets
The Freight: $36 per person per year. (That’s an average of less than $3 per brunch – what a deal!)
Please bring your check (made out to CBS).
Come and sit in for some good food and conversation.
Sisterhood
Please note that at this time there are no monthly Sisterhood meetings and any future events held by
the Sisterhood will be announced as they are determined.

In Our Community
New Caring Committee Formed
As the hot summer weather approaches and different health conditions affecting some of our members are
occurring, we felt the need to form this committee, and to assist our members. Miss Mimi, Martha Menin and Ceil
Lookner are heading this committee. We can always use more volunteers and new ideas. If interested, contact
one of our committee members. It may only involve calling a few of our members, helping supply a family with a
meal, or just a friendly visit or call. If Miss Mimi is brave enough to cook (far from being a gourmet chef…”I just call
it back to the basics”) for a family, so can you. It’s just a nice thing (a mitzvah) to help a family needing some help.
Anyway, call chairpersons Martha, Miss Mimi or Ceil if interested in this committee.
The Synagogue Council of Greater Denver encourages everyone to “Always Buy Israel”. Some of the merchants
in and around Denver stocking Israeli product and textile items include: Auerbachs, Albertsons, Arash, The Bagel
Store, The European Market, King Soopers, Safeway, Whole Foods, Argonaut Liquor, Grapevine Liquor, Sears, TJ
Max and Cost Plus.
Rental Opportunities Available at CBS
Our building has over 18,000 square feet of flexible meeting space and a large parking lot. With the
exception of CBS services, school & special events, there is a large opportunity to rent space from us.
Perhaps you know of a small business, pre-school, civic organization, scouting troop etc. that is looking
for a regular place to hold their meeting or activities?
Space is available to rent on a one-time, weekly, monthly or annual basis. Please have any interested
parties contact any board member and we will gladly contact the interested persons to discuss their
needs.
Rental pricing is very flexible and based on the groups space requirements.
We need you! More than 1,000 volunteers are needed to ensure the success of the 2010 Denver JCC Maccabi Games®.
There are many ways you can assist to help make these Games memorable for the athletes and our community. To learn
more about volunteer opportunities during the Games, please visit www.jccdenvermaccabi.org or call 303-316-6318.

How You Can Help
King Soopers Certificates NOW RELOADABLE
Would you consider doing something important to benefit the synagogue if it did not
cost you any money, effort or time?
Do you eat? Do you know someone who does?
Do you drive a car? Do you know someone who does?
For several years Congregation Beth Shalom has participated in the King Soopers gift card program where the
synagogue has received 5% of all sales without costing our members anything. In spite of our best efforts,
including a dollar for dollar match from an anonymous donor, our success has been limited.
There were always two reasons that people cited for not participating in the program. The first is they don’t shop at
King Soopers, and the second is they prefer to use their credit cards to buy groceries where they can then get
rewards like airline miles, rebates, and points.
PROBLEM SOLVED! Beginning immediately when you purchase any denomination King Soopers gift card
from the synagogue you may reload that card at any time for any amount up to $500.00 at a time USING
YOUR CREDIT CARD.
These gift cards carry a sticker identifying them as a fundraiser for Congregation Beth Shalom, and your reloads
automatically benefit the synagogue. When you have used up a card DO NOT throw it away. Simply reload it for
any amount at the service desk or the checkout stand (before buying your groceries) using cash, check or CREDIT
CARD.
PROBLEM SOLVED! You may use your gift cards at King Soopers gas stations. Their gas prices are
always competitive, but when you accumulate a monthly total of $100 on groceries (using your store
loyalty card) you get an EXTRA $0.10 PER GALLON OFF. (A new Kings gas station is on the northeast
corner of County Line and Holly.)
Every time you buy groceries at King Soopers your checkout tape will show both the total of your monthly
purchases (for gasoline discounts) and the amount remaining on your gift card. Monthly gasoline discount
balances last through the following month.
The stars are now aligned. You can save money on gas, buy your groceries (and gas) with your gift card, receive
all of your credit card rewards and the synagogue will get 5% -WITHOUT COSTING YOU ANYTHING.
Please see Pat Winer to buy your King Soopers gift cards.
Thank you! You have just purchased a new re-loadable King Soopers gift card that benefits Congregation Beth
Shalom now, and every time you reload it. (See the special orange “Fundraiser” sticker on the corner of the card!)
The big new advantage to this card however, is that you may reload it using your charge card. This way you not
only help the synagogue, but continue to get full credit for any airline miles, rebates or points offered by your charge
card company.

Congregation Beth Shalom Youth Fund
The CBS Youth Fund has been established to provide letters of greeting from the Rabbi along with small gifts
for our young adults away at college. The mission is to support our children by keeping them connected to
their Jewish roots and our synagogue.
Initially, the fund will provide for our college-age children. Depending on the funds we hope to eventually
receive, we hope to include gifts for membership to Jewish organizations and education in the Denver area and

have a student!
Currently, if you have a student at college and would like to participate, please complete the form below (e-mail
it to the addresses given) and mail in your check for $36 or more as a donation. The first mailing will be a
