A MESSAGE FROM RABBI ROSENBAUM
Expanding our
Spiritual Repertoire
Recently a member of my family has been
learning to cook and he has been enjoying
it immensely. When I asked him what he
likes to cook, he said that right now his
repertoire is very small, but he is learning
new things all the time. It occurred to me that acquiring a spiritual
life is a lot like learning to cook. We start out with a few basics, and
we gradually expand our repertoire. As we grow and we acquire
new tools, our spiritual practice becomes richer and more flavorful.
When Rabbi Kula was here in March, he challenged us to go back
to basics and examine Jewish spiritual practices one by one, ask
how they lead to human flourishing, then try them out for forty
days. That’s what we have been doing for the past five sessions
of our Sunday morning study/practice group, called “Judaism as a
Path to Human Flourishing.” We started out, twenty of us, with a
commitment to reciting one simple prayer in the morning, “Modeh
Ani.” These are the words in English: “Thank you God for restoring
my soul to me and for having faith in me.”
We talked about how God’s faith in us implies God needs us for
something only we can do on this earth. Saying these words
can remind us of our own importance and purpose. It can also
stimulate to ask: Who else needs us? Does everyone around us
feel needed? And, if not, can we help them?
We folded in Rabbi Kula’s suggestion that we kiss the mezuzah as
we enter and leave our homes, and think about why we are doing
it. For example, if we are designating our home as sacred space,
that could mean that we are going to reserve the time we spend
at home for nurturing our relationships. We’ll try to keep the
pressures and worries of work outside the house.
Finally, we added in another practice: saying this blessing when
we open our eyes in the morning: “Blessed are You, Lord our God,
who opens the eyes of the blind.” These words can get us thinking
about how our awareness might expand beyond what we can
‘see’ right now. When I was in Bethlehem a few years ago, all the
Palestinians I spoke to said their perception of Israelis changed
when they got to know them better. They had seen them narrowly
as soldiers. But, when they got to know Israelis in a fuller context,
their impression of them was revolutionized. It was if their eyes
had been opened. How can our field of vision get bigger and our
world expand? A few simple words in the morning can get us
reflecting on how to be better people.
Woa! Suddenly, we have a spiritual practice! We’re thinking about
home and work life, we’re reaching out to people who are feeling
unappreciated, we’re looking at the world around us with new
eyes, and we’re connecting to the language and traditions of our
people. And, all of this with only five minutes of spiritual practice a day!
Here is my challenge for all of us this year. Let’s commit to an
additional hour a week of spiritual practice. One hour, spread out
over the course of seven days. In the coming months, I will make
suggestions for how we might use that hour. I have the feeling that
2
by making this modest commitment, we can add so much richness
and meaning to our lives.
It’s like learning to cook! By gradually increasing our repertoire, we
can make our lives taste better.
With best wishes
Rabbi Jay Rosenbaum

BAT MITZVAH
Everyone is invited to share services & the kiddush following our Bat Mitzvah
September 5
Caroline Friedman is the daughter of
Candace and Daniel Friedman, the older
sister of Charlotte, and the granddaughter
of Susan Friedman of Mercer Island, WA,
Jay Friedman z”l, and Carol and Merlyn
Brown, of Houston, TX. Caroline is in the 7th grade at Islander
Middle School. She enjoys cross-country/track and skiing. In
addition, she plays guitar, sings, and plays the trumpet in her
school band. She loves animals, and that love has been the idea
for her Mitzvah Project. She has created a business proposal for
the ASPCA, including a website, and statement of intent. Her
idea is to convince the ASPCA to certify healthy dog breeders as
not being puppy mills, so that everyone who buys a pet dog can
know their dog’s breeder and be confident their pet was not
mistreated. Caroline would be happy to share more on
this topic.

A MESSAGE FROM DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION, ED. D. CANDIDATE, ELIYAHU KRIGEL
Shalom chevre, hello friends! I’m
honored to be your new Director of
Education. I have really enjoyed getting
to know many of you over the summer
and I look forward to meeting all of you
in the future. I moved to Seattle with
my wife, Shanti, our 14 year-old, Isaiah,
and our 10 year-old, Kaela, to begin
working at HNT on June 1. Isaiah will be
in ninth grade in the fall at Newport High School and Kaela will
a fifth grader at Eastgate Elementary. We live in Bellevue and
are thankful for the support of the congregation as we settle
into our incredibly wonderful new community at HNT in the
beautiful Pacific Northwest. As we enter 5776 together, we wish
you many successes and continued accomplishments!
DVAR: A WORD
On August 16 we entered the Hebrew month of Elul in the
Jewish calendar. Elul is a time of introspection. Elul prepares
us for the beginning of the seventh month of Tishrei which
commences with Rosh Hashanah. During the month of Elul, we
have the opportunity to blow the Shofar each day which is a
loud wake up call to return and remember who we really are on
the inside. Elul is also meant to be a time of personal reflection.
You might think Elul is the 12th month in the lunar calendar
counting from Tishrei which begins with Rosh Hashanah, the
beginning of the year. In our actual count though, Elul is the
sixth month of the lunar cycle counting from the month of Nisan
which is considered the first Hebrew month. Elul means return
and the month is a time for preparation for the Days of Awe
which are latent with reflection on all levels. This is the time to
return to something more than just ourselves by clarifying our
life’s purpose and goals.
The word Elul is also an acronym from Song of Songs 6:3: Ani
L’dodi V’dodi Li (I am my beloved and my beloved is mine). Many
times this verse is used when describing the union within a
Jewish wedding, but in this sense, God is the “Beloved” and “I”
is the Jewish people. According to the Zodiac, the Maiden is the
particular symbol for the month of Elul based off of the verse
in Yermiyahu 31:20: Return, O Maiden of Israel, return to these
cities of yours.” The Maiden analogy and the representation of
the beloved both point to getting to the root of our relationship
with holiness. The act of doing Teshuva during the time of
Elul is all about getting ready for the big “court date” with the
book of life and death during Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur,
and is a sacred process which needs community and support
to grow and prosper. What better way to honor the sentiment
of Elul than to celebrate each other and join together for a
special welcoming BBQ picnic after FRS the first Sunday back
from break on September 20 from 12:15 PM - 1:00 PM at HNT.
May each one of us be blessed with the ability to go within by
remaining connected to our passions and family connections!

FRANKEL RELIGIOUS SCHOOL (FRS)
The mission of the Frankel Religious School (FRS) is to build
a vibrant school where students actively live Jewish lives
expressed through their actions and values. FRS creates a
foundation for fostering deeper connections to Judaism, Israel,
Hebrew, and the modern world. This year, we have adopted a
new curriculum through the Jewish Theological Seminary called
Etgar Yesodi. This curriculum uses the power of cooperative
learning, the value of addressing multiple intelligences, and sees
the importance of differentiating instruction so that the learning
is relevant and engaging. Interfaith and non-traditional families
have an important place at the table of learning at FRS as we
engaged in continuous learning from babies to bubbies.
GARINIM
Our program for our youngest members of the synagogue
community is called Garinim or Little Seeds. We meet
Wednesdays for playdates and for Friday night services and
dinner. We also offer a twice-monthly preschool which meets
every other Sunday during FRS. For more information about our
Garinim program, please contact Eliyahu@h-nt.org or
karen_langman@yahoo.com.
AUGUST IN REVIEW
Our Morim (teachers) and Madrichim (teacher assistants) gathered
together on August 16 for an all-staff training based on our new
curriculum, Etgar Yesodi. From August 23-25, our sixth, seventh,
and eighth graders headed to Camp Solomon Schechter (CSS)
for our first ever Becoming a Leader Trip. The trip was all about
combining leadership and Judaism in a beautiful and inspiring
setting in order to build Jewish community and identity. During
the trip, we spent time on the ropes course and at the waterfront
at CSS. For regular school updates, head to Frankel Religious
School on Facebook or get on our Mah Nishmah (What’s Up) email
newsletter by simply emailing Moreh Eliyahu at Eliyahu@h-nt.org.
FAMILY EDUCATION AT HNT
B’Yachad is our version of engaged family education at HNT.
Inter-generational learning is what the program is all about
and we achieve this by stimulating conversation, engaging in
dialogue, and asking good questions. Join us for the B’Yachad

Torah On Tap: Sin! • Wednesday, Sept. 2 • 7:30 PM
What does the concept of "sin" mean in Judaism? How
does the Jewish concept of sin differ from other cultures' particularly Christianity? Where in our sacred texts do we
find examples of men and women behaving badly - and
what, if anything, serves to redeem them? Finally, what can
we moderns learn about "sin" as we head into the High Holy
Days, a time of year when we reflect on all our misdeeds,
missteps, and mistakes - hopefully to start fresh in 5776?
Over desserts and drinks, we’ll informally discuss relevant
issues using scintillating Jewish texts, both ancient and
modern, as our springboard. This event is FREE! Please
bring a dessert, snack or drink to share! For more info and
to receive location details, RSVP on our Facebook event at

Jewish Spirituality Made Simple, taught by Rabbi Jay
The Third Age: New Perspectives for the Over Fifty
Generation, led by Rabbi Jay Rosenbaum, dates TBA
Judaism is a practice, like meditation and yoga. Every Jewish
practice is intended to yield an immediate benefit to our
well-being: a greater enthusiasm for life and a deeper
perspective. In this class we will: explore what it means to
have a spiritual outlook on life, study simple Jewish practices,
and explore how we can incorporate them into our day. We
will look for practices that are easy to do, don’t require a lot
of time or deep knowledge, and are high yield in emotional
impact. We’ll take up Rabbi Kula’s challenge last March to try
out new practices for 40 days.
Words like ‘senior citizen’ and ‘retirement’ do not capture the
vitality and creative potential of millions of Americans in their
fifties, sixties, and beyond. We will start a community-wide
conversation of what it means to be living in the stage of life
called The Third Age. What are our concerns and hopes? How
can we re-shape society’s attitudes towards The Third Age?
And, how can we harness the potential of a generation with
vast life experience and energy in our own congregation?

HNT High Holidays JFS Food
Collection Challenge
What’s in your cart? Put it in ours too!
On average, 1,800 people per month need the Jewish Family
Service Polack Food Bank. Instead of giving what you don’t use,
why not give what you do use?
The food you donate isn’t just going to sit on a shelf somewhere,
it’s going to a real person! What do you like to eat? Help feed
someone who’d like the same thing! Dean & Gwenn Polik and
Valerie Polack are once again generously contributing a matching
gift for every item we collect, so give big and they will too!
Don’t forget, the food bank cares about expiration dates just like
you do. Check the date before you donate! We also cannot accept
previously opened items, glass jars or perishables.
Donate in the marked cart/bins in the Upper & Lower Foyers
Volunteers Needed! JFS Food Sort
Sunday, October 4 • 9:45 AM - 1:00 PM
Meet at HNT at 9:45 AM (following minyan) to pack the food
collected, transport it to the JFS warehouse, and help sort
donations from across the city from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Space
at the Sort is limited - registration required!
To volunteer, email FoodSort@h-nt.org.
