4Why I Love Tifereth Israel............................................................................Sheila SokolI joined Tifereth Israel in 2001, where many of my friends belonged. It was a dening time for me, as it was then that I met Marty Robins, who would become my partner for the next 21 years. Also, I knew I didn’t want to be just a “member,” but I wanted to give back to the community.Being one whose parents and grandparents were involved in our shul in Massachusetts, as well as in other organizations, the blessings of Tikkun Olam and volunteering in other groups were instilled in me from a young age. It has been my pleasure to participate in committees, help with mailings, deliver Shabbat bags to new members, and to serve at the reception desk during a summer when it was located near the downstairs ofces. I particularly enjoy working with B.R.E.A.D. and the Social Action Committee. Through all of those interactions, I made many new friends, for which I am thankful.When I am sitting in the sanctuary, it is a comfort for me to feel connected to my Judaism and my spirituality. I love that Tifereth Israel is a welcoming congregation to so many diverse individuals and situations.Finally, I want to acknowledge the support of our wonderful clergy during the times I have reached out to them.Committing to Respectful Dialogue...........................................................................Lee Rosenthal, PresidentThe Mission Statement of Tifereth Israel states, in part, as follows: “…We are passionate about inclusion of all people, of all levels of Jewish knowledge and experience, of all nancial means, of all lifestyles. Standing with the State of Israel, we facilitate a deep connection with the Eternal and with our Jewish Brothers and Sisters throughout the world.” I agree, one hundred percent, with our mission. We must be tolerant and respectful of all members and guests who attend our services and events, regardless of one’s political view, race, sexual orientation, or gender identity. Just as importantly, in my view, is our mission to stand with and support Israel. We may have disparate views regarding our support or nonsupport of Israel’s government and management of the war, but as an institution, we support the State of Israel, and will continue to do so. On a weekly basis, our synagogue includes worshipers who align strongly with the words we pray, as well as those who have strong objections. As a synagogue afliated with the Conservative movement, we often nd ourselves hosting a big tent with varying opinions of which we strive to be tolerant. It is no easy task but we continue to work toward that goal.What remains is our steadfast commitment to our mission statement, that we stand in support of the State of Israel and will continue to pray for its wellbeing. It in no way limits our hearts from the desire of peace and security for all those who yearn for it. But our prayers are sacred and will continue to be recited as they have been for the past many months. As we approach the High Holidays, we face the difcult truth that our mission is not for everyone and that sometimes individuals make the decision to seek spiritual fulllment elsewhere. I hope that in the coming year we can be ever more respectful of each other with our words and actions, embrace the dialogue that is needed and nd a way to pray together during the entirety of our service.

particularly meaningful, as the upcoming festivals lead us directly into a familial celebration which we hope to experience together with all of you in health, happiness, joy and peace. On Shabbat morning, November 2nd, our son, Liav, will be called to the Torah as a Bar Mitzvah! I admit I might be biased, but Liav is a bright, funny, athletic, kind and caring young man. Sharon and I are tremendously proud of him and feel incredibly blessed that his Bar Mitzvah will be celebrated here at Congregation Tifereth Israel.I speak from experience when I tell you that celebrating your Bar Mitzvah as the son of a rabbi (let alone two rabbis as is the case for Liav) comes with its own expectations and pressures. Yet without question, it comes with the immense blessing of celebrating this auspicious milestone with your entire congregational family. Although we will not be sending personalized invitations to every member of Congregation Tifereth Israel, please know from both Sharon and me that your presence at Liav’s Bar Mtizvah would honor us, would only increase our joy and would serve as a precious display of making this year one of L’chaim Tovim Ul’shalom, for good life and for peace.Shanah Tovah,Rabbi Hillel Skolnik5As I trust you have by now noticed, our theme for this year’s High Holidays is “L’chaim Tovim Ul’shalom/For Good Life and Peace.” This phrase, straight from our liturgy for these Days of Awe, speaks directly to the fact that our prayers this year are for more than simply to be inscribed and sealed in the Book of Life. When we sing these words together we will petition God not only to be alive, but to be granted the blessing of health, happiness, joy and peace during the new year. It reminds us that our prayers on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are not only for those days, they are for all of 5785.Thinking ahead to upcoming important moments is not only appropriate, it is healthy for each of us. At the same time as we spend these holidays engaged in acts of repentance, we also are making plans. Some of us make plans to travel while others are thinking of a new adventure in life.The pages of this Forum are lled with exciting opportunities to be part of Congregation Tifereth Israel on days that are not Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. I hope that you will peruse these pages and make plans to join us on the High Holidays and then many, many times in addition to those most sacred of days.In the Skolnik household, the prayer for experiencing the year in good life and peace is HigH Holiday Passes“...our prayers on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are not only for those days, they are for all of 5785.We are proud to invite everyone to services, free of charge. One pass per family will be required at the door for members and guests alike. Members will receive a High Holiday postcard “pass” in the mail in September. Guests may request passes using the “Request a Free Pass” option on our High Holiday webpage.
