April - Beth Sholom
THE BULLETIN $2" BSD of Beth Sholom Congregation Frederick, Maryland April 2011 Volume XII, Issue 10 Adar II/Nissan 5771 Purim at Beth Sholom PASSOVER SEDER SCHEDULE First Seder, Monday Night, April 18 Second Seder, Tuesday Night, April 19 The Chometz (leavening) Search, Sunday Evening, April 17 The night before the first seder, we search for and symbolically eliminate all remaining leavening from the house. We do our searching at nightfall. This is an especially enjoyable ceremony for children. This ritual is described at the beginning of many Haggadot. The search is performed in the following manner: Coming soon... a. SUIT FUNDRAISER b. c. You will have the opportunity to schedule an appointment with a master tailor at your home or office. Beth Sholom will earn a “commission” on every sale, so tell your friends. Watch your e-mail for information d. Place 10 pieces of visible-size bread in various locations throughout the house. Make the following blessing: Baruch atah Adonai Elokeinu melech ha-olam asher kid-shanu b’mitzvotav v’tzivonu al biur chometz. Then proceed, traditionally with lighted candles, to look for any leaven that can be found. The pieces of bread should be gathered into a container, with a feather and a wooden spoon, and can be placed in a small cardboard box. After gathering the 10 pieces and whatever other leaven there is, make the following declaration: “All manner of leaven that is in my possession which I have not seen or have not removed, or have no knowledge of, shall be null and disowned as the dust of the earth.” @ Page 2 Beth Sholom Congregation The President’s Corner by Gayle Bromberg gaylebromberg@yahoo.com I generally try to use this column to keep our members informed about what’s going on at Beth Sholom. This month, although we have a number of stimulating and enjoyable upcoming events, and there is Board news to report, I also feel compelled to focus on some cataclysmic things that are going on around the world. I imagine that many of you are similarly caught up in empathy and concern for the people in Japan and Haiti, in the short and long term aftermath of overwhelming natural (and nuclear energy) disasters. Like me, you may also be concerned and perplexed about what to make of all the revolutionary changes (and supportive or counter-revolutionary governmental responses) in the Middle East. Our empathy and our thoughts about the troubles in other parts of the world are part of our humanity, part of our religion and morality, part of our love of G-d and our fellow man, part of our sense of responsibility to help repair the world. I know that mine are conditioned by my Jewish and American heritage. For example, as an American, I want to help support the peoples who are seeking democracy, rule of law, a voice, a chance to provide for their families and raise their children in a climate of peace and freedom. As a Jew, I am also concerned about what all the unrest and changes in the Middle East will mean for Israel, and for relationships be(Continued on p. 4) Beth Sholom Congregation 1011 N.

The planning is nearly complete and we are expecting a good crowd. There may still be some seats left so if you are interested in attending, please contact Sharon Kuebbing. NCJW just started its spring collection – we are collecting School Supplies for those Near and Far. This year we will be collecting for Frederick County schools as well as supporting Benji Smith’s Eagle Scout project by collecting school supplies for children in Los Tocones, Dominican Republic. Please keep a look out for more details. This month we awarded the Frederick Ruth Tick Memorial Community College Nursing Scholarship to Catherine Becker. NCJW awards this $500 scholarship each year to a deserving nursing student. Congratulations, Catherine! Calendar of events: • Sunday, April 3 (Unity Church, 1 W. 9th St., 4 p.m.): Seasons for Peace and Nonviolence Closing Ceremony. The Washington DC Baha’i Choir will perform, followed by some interfaith discussions. NCJW will be providing the refreshments. • Tuesday, April 5 (Beth Sholom Community Center, 7 p.m.): General Meeting. This is one of our most important meetings because we will decide to which non-profit organizations in our community we will donate. • Sunday, April 10 (Beth Sholom Community Center, 10:30 a.m.): Guest speaker Joel Snyder (brother of Carolyn) will speak about Audio Description, The Visual Made Verbal. Low vision does not mean you need to miss out. If you or someone you know cannot enjoy visual arts or TV, you should attend this program. • Thursday, April 14 (Beth Sholom Community Center, 6:30 p.m.): First Annual Women’s Seder. • Tuesday, May 3 (Beth Sholom Community Center, 7 p.m.): We will have an informal discussion with representatives from the local Alzheimer’s Association. They are interested in learning more about our connection to Alzheimer’s disease and want to share information about several educational programs for caregivers and support groups for people with Alzheimer’s. This discussion will be followed by a brief general meeting. In June, we will be installing two officers for a two-year term: Treasurer and Vice President, Administrative Affairs. If you are interested in holding one of these coveted offices, please contact Marcy Taylor. For more information on NCJW Frederick Section, please check out our web site www.ncjwfrederick.org or contact any NCJW Board Member. @ The Bulletin Beth Sholom Congregation Page 3 What is Chometz? If one of the five grains--wheat, oats, rye, barley, or spelt--comes in contact with water after being harvested, it becomes fermented, or chometz. This fermentation takes 18 minutes, according to tradition. Pesadick baked goods are made from flour that has not been fermented. The term chometz also applies to dishes and utensils that have been in contact with chometz foods during the year. Most Ashkenazic authorities have added the following foods (kitniyot) to the above list: rice, corn, millet, and legumes (beans and peas; however, string beans are permitted). Prohibited foods on Passover include the following: leavened bread, cakes, biscuits, crackers, cereal, coffees containing cereal derivatives, wheat, barley, oats, spelt, rye, and all liquids containing ingredients or flavors made from grain alcohol. Watch for a letter in your e-mail or snail mail about selling your chometz! @ Passover Candlelighting Times: Monday, April 18, 7:31 p.m. Tuesday, April 19 8:32 p.m. Sunday, April 24, 7:37 p.m. Monday, April 25, 8:38 p.m. Page 4 Beth Sholom Congregation The Bulletin President’s Corner (cont.) tween those nations and the United States. Will the Middle East ultimately be ruled by more extremist and anti-Semitic regimes, or will they achieve balanced civil governments that recognize the benefit of positive and peaceful relationships with the U.S. and Israel? I think that for many of us, volunteering and giving are an important expression of our Jewish ideals. Since most of us are unlikely to be going to Japan, Haiti, or the Arabic countries in the Middle East, I’ve been thinking about whether there is something we can do as a Jewish community, whether it is a combination of fundraisers (car washes, cake sales, craft sales, etc.). If anyone has any ideas about this, or wishes to participate in community fundraising, please contact the synagogue office, and we will help coordinate efforts and make everyone aware of opportunities to participate. If you wish to donate to Japan relief efforts through Jewish organizations, I am aware of the following organizations providing or donating to Japanese relief: the Jewish Coalition for Japanese Relief, the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, the Orthodox Union. For Haiti, there is also the American Jewish World Service, which provides volunteers and aid in crises and then helps and empowers local groups to rebuild and create solutions for their problems. We will also try to find speakers who can help us get a clearer understanding of the issues in the Middle East as they continue to unfold. These huge disruptions of the world order put into perspective for me how incredibly fortunate and privileged we have been, and also how vulnerable we are to all of that changing due to human or natural interventions. While all the things we are working on at Beth Sholom seem incredibly small and insignificant in comparison to the devastating things that are going on around the world, I hope that the things we do to take care of our spiritual lives and build our Jewish community provide a platform for us to strengthen each other in doing acts of lovingkindness and tikkun olam. Let me just take a moment to let you know that the Budget Committee has met and has presented the Budget to the Board for review (March 23) in preparation for the Congregational Meeting. The Second Street house is on the market and has had lots of showings. I have appointed a committee to take a longer view of our budget and help us decide how to manage our money once we sell the Second Street house, and how to reorganize so that we can be sustainable. I have also appointed a committee to advise us and make a recommendation on what we should do with the Second Street Synagogue, now that we have more information from PNC Bank about how we can access and make use of the associated Weinberg trust fund. We are also looking at how we can share our space with other Jewish organizations and congregations and/or attract more organizations in the community to rent space for events, meetings, concerts, kosher catered parties, etc. Our Program and Membership committees, as well as Rabbi Singerman, are continuing to work on providing meaningful and engaging educational, cultural, and community-building programs, including Havurot (friendship groups for Jewish study, to Stacee Springer on receiving the Distinguished Practitioner in Social Work award by the National Acadamies of Practice, a multidisciplinary organization which advises public policy makers on health care issues. Stacee was given the award for her work in palliative care with children with cancer and U.S. veterans, her “little and big warriors.” President’s Corner (Cont.) practice, and sharing holiday celebrations and life cycle events). We have also joined a coalition of synagogues who share information about Jewish educational programs and grants for enhancing Jewish education. I’m sure you’ll see some programs that will entice you as you read the rest of this Bulletin. Shalom, Gayle Special Birthdays Daniel Berkowitz Susan Dwyer Sylvia Elfman Fred Hochhauser Attention Parents and Grandparents: We are in the beginning stages of considering a once-a-week “My Grown-up and Me” class for 18- to 24-month old children. Classes would be 6075 minutes long, with three sessions per year, for approximately 10 weeks each. Activities would include free play, art project, circle time (songs and stories) and large muscle play. Fees have yet to be determined, but we promise you they will be reasonable!

Beth Sholom Early Childhood Center SAVE THE DATE: SPRING YARD SALE FRIDAY, MAY 20 by Margie Barber, Director and teacher of 4-year-olds Everyone at Beth Sholom Early Childhood Center, teacher and students alike, rejoice in the arrival of spring. After being cooped up inside for most of the winter, it is an incredible release to be able to go outside to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air. With spring comes a number of preschool events that we enjoy participating in each year. In April, all the classes will attend a model seder. In May, we have a Mother’s Day Luncheon. The children are already preparing their songs for this special day. In April, the students will be taking part in a Trike-A-Thon to raise money for St. Jude’s Research Hospital. During the week before the event, the children will be learning important bike safety rules. At the event, each child will have the opportunity to practice their bike-riding safety skills as they navigate an obstacle course that will be set up in the social hall. Parents will be pledging to support the event. In these difficult economic times, and with gas prices skyrocketing, we will appreciate any donation, no matter how small. Every little bit helps, and for such a good cause! @ Page 8 Beth Sholom Congregation The Bulletin The Bulletin Beth Sholom Congregation Page 9 We know that money doesn’t grow on TREES, but that shouldn’t stop you from getting back to your Jewish ROOTS!
