MAY YOU BE SEALED IN THE BOOK OF LIFE

Dear Friends,

o

FORA YEAR

OF HEALTH

BLESSINGS, JOY AND PEACE

One of the most moving and poignant symbols and rituals of the High Holy Day Season is the Shofar. What is the origin of the Shofar? Why does it still move us so?

Perhaps more has been written about the Shofar, its origins and meaning today than any other ritual of these High Holy Days. I recently read a most beautiful writing about the Shofar, included in a Selichot service written and edited by Lisa Seidemann, a

friend and rabbinic student. Our tradition tells us that Moses spent forty days and nights on Mount Sinai reading

the Torah. After forty days and nights, he took the tablets and came down from the mountain to the camp of the Israelites. When Moses saw that the Children of Israel had built a golden calf and were worshipping it, he broke the tablets and destroyed the idols and the idolaters.

God then called Moses back to the mountain, and instructed the Israelites to blow the Shofar throughout their camp as a warning against idol worship. Therefore, our sages instituted the custom of blowing the Shofar every day during the month of Elul, .-

the month Moses spent on the mountain, the month that precedes Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur.

Since then, the Shofar has been interpreted as a kind of signal of alarm or warning. Too frequently we forget our duties and responsibilities. We become selfish and cruel. We neglect important tasks, and concentrate on goals which are unworthy of us. The sounds of the Shofar are meant to wake us up, to sound an alert.

The Shofar calls: Tekiah. Arise! Awake! Come from your beds, your homes to the blast that calls you, the siren that warns you: Seek shelter for your spirit.

The ram's horn cries: Shevarim Worship in truth, pray together in confidence and in trust, determined that promises shall be kept oaths fulfilled, words spoken thoughtfully in honor and in truth.

The shrill notes tremble: Teruah! Listen to the cries of people suffering. Sense their unbearable tears of oppression. Contemplate in reverence and sincerity how we can help those in anguish.

May the sound of the Shofar awaken us to our many failings, and may it enter our hearts, for blessed is the people that harkens its call.

B'Shalom, Rabbi David Straus

TEMPLE MEMORIAL PARKS SERVICES SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 23rd

Our annual Memorial Park Services will be held on Sunday afternoon, September 23rd. This beautiful Service is especially planned for those members of our Congregation whose loved ones have been buried at our cemeteries. It is a meaningful and comforting expe­rience and most appropriate for this time of year when we feel especially close to our departed loved ones.

.. The practice of visiting the cemetery during the High Holy Days is one that we should

observe. It expresses our love and devotion to the memory of those who have gone before and represents a continuing and ongoing tie with the heritage of our families and our people.

The Service will take place at 2:00 at Greenwood Cemetery and at 3:00 at Ewing Cemetery. There is no more beautiful way to recall our loved ones at this season than to give charity in their names, and to join with your congregation in marking the meaning of their lives in this special Memorial Service.

SELICHOT PROGRAM AND SERVICE Saturday Evening, September 15th

8:00-10:00 p.m.

"IDEALS, CHOICES, AND HUMAN NATURE: A BEGINNING FOR THE HIGH HOLY DAYS"

Come join us as we watch Woody Allen's film CRIME AND MISDEMEANORS, and discuss its message and how it relates to the themes of the High Holy Days. CRIMES AND MISDEMEANORS is a film about human­ity. It's about people's lives, their loves, their perceptions and ideals. It's about the choices we make and how those choices affect us. And it offers a bold, unflinching look at some of the most disturbing questions about life and human nature.

What Is Selichot? Selichot is a brief introspective service with intense religious feelings. We will

enter our Sanctuary, the lights dimmed, the music playing softly, in a contemplative mood. Because Selichot is recited on Saturday night, we start with Havdalah, the service that separates the Sabbath from the 6 days of the week, the holy from the profane. Selichot separates the High Holy Days from the rest of the year in much the same way.

Selichot are penitential prayers, composed for many occasions, including Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. With the advent of the month of Elul, preceeding Tishri which ushers in Rosh Hashanah, the mood of anticipation and spiritual preparation heightens within our community. In our day, these services can help us ready ourselves psychologically and emotionally for the High Holy Days.

Forgiveness offers us the opportunity to begin anew. The prayers and readings in this Service speak of our new beginnings as persons, for Israel, (the people and the nation) and for our society. The beginnings may be painful, but they offer hope.

TEMPLE CEMETERY & MEMORIAL PLAQUES

Har Sinai has a most beautiful Memorial Park in Ewing Cemetery. It is a dignified and serene resting place for our members and their loved ones. The thoughtful pur­chase of a suitable family plot years before any actual need arises, is an important obligation for all families.

If your family does not yet have this pro­tection, Joel Orland, Chairperson, will be happy to discuss the purchase of a suitable family plot, companion or single graves. He can be reached at 883-1400.

And the Temple also has provisions for the memorial of a loved one through acquiring a bronze plaque to be affixed to the memorial Tablets in the Sanctuary. This preserves the memory and establishes a perpetual Yahrzeit for your loved ones. Please call the Temple office, 392-7143, for further information.

High Holy Days Hunger Project

Final arrangements are now being made

for our annual High Holy Day Hunger Pro­

ject and Food Drive. Though our congre­

gation has, for many years now, collected

canned food goods during the Holy Days,

this year, Reform Congregations through­

out the United States are participating in a

national effort coordinated by the Union of

American Hebrew Congregations to involve

• synagogues in the fight against hunger.

At Yom Kippur evening services every

congregant will receive a grocery bag and

• a request to return this bag the next day

filled with food for the poor. Inside each

bag will be a fact sheet on hunger in Amer­

ica, and a special appeal from Mazon: A

Jewish Response to Hunger. This project

is a strikingly simple plan for bold com­

munity action. With two simple acts: a donation to Mazon, and bringing in canned

goods for the needy and hungry in our

community, we can make this year's fast a

feast for the hungry.

Cantor's

Ushers Needed At every service throughout the year at

Temple, members of our congregation volunteer and serve as ushers for our con­gregation. Ushers play an important role in our service: they greet new members and guests, and help them feel at home and part of our Temple family, help seat those who arrive after the beginning of our ser­vice, and help those unfamiliar with our Temple find their way around.

It is not difficult to usher, little advanced training is necessary. And none of us like to enter the sanctuary without being greeted by a familiar face. Men, women, and families can serve as ushers. If you would like to usher at any service during the year, please call the Temple office, or Herb Levin, chairman.

TO ENSURE A FUTURE

AS STRONG AS ITS PAST REMEMBER

HAR SINAI TEMPLE IN YOUR ESTATE PLANS.

If your family is interested in hosting a student, please call Rabbi Straus imme­diately. This is a unique opportunity to share, learn, and have fun.

Stuff and Nonsense _________ by Randi Feinstein

What a busy summer!!! While the rest of you were spending time at camp, or working, or just hangin' out with friends, the Har Sinai Senior Youth Group Board has already begun planning for a great year. After buying a leaf for the "Tree of Life" to honor James and the graduating seniors (gosh, we miss them already!), and attending the Annual Board Meet­ing, we moved onto our biggest challenge yet. With the help of the UAHC, Rabbi Straus, and the Youth Group chairpeople, we began our search for a new Youth Group advisor, and did we find one? Of course, we did! We'd like to welcome one high-spirited, fun-loving little lady from the University of Pennsylvania, Nancy Weinberg.

Speaking of advisors, congratulations to James on his new position as director of JFTY, the state-wide Youth Group to which we belong. As the people who went to Summer Conclave (you missed a great time if you missed it) know, this means that if you miss James ALL YOU HAVE TO DO TO SEE HIM IS GO TO JFTY CONCLAVES. Although only us cool people on the Board are invited to the September Conclave, L'Tachnayn, we can all start planning for the December Conclave over Winter Break.

It's almost time for the annual HSTY progressive dinner .. . Iots of food, lots of fun, lots of friends,lots of filanthropy (that's 2 Feinsteins, a Frost and a Ferry), and plenty of freshmen! It's time for the Freshmen Representatives Elections when two ninth graders are elected to be a voice for their class on the HSTY Board. Freshpeople (no chauvinism here), if you want to run for this position, GET PSYCHED . . . applications wiil be coming soon! Oh, one more thing, EVERYONE has to pay $20.00 for membership in our Youth Group and JFTY so be really coop so SEND IN YOUR DOUGH TO THE TEMPLE or bring it to the Progressive Dinner.

Well, that's about it. Until next month, practice your knitting, enjoy the first couple of weeks of school (HA, HA) and remember, as our wise mentor Mr. Gelsey says, "Never try to teach a pig to sing ... it doesn't work and only annoys the pig."

OUR NEW YOUTH GROUP ADVISOR: Nancy Weinberg

My name is Nancy Weinberg and I am the new advisor of the senior youth group. I am a sophomore at the Univer­sity of Pennsylvania and have enjoyed working in the Reform Jewish youth movement for the past five years. In my freshman year of high school I helped start a new youth group in Grand Rap­ids, Michigan and became the elected president of that group the following year. When I moved to Philadelphia I was the first yearbook editor of the Pennsylvania youth region and later became vice president of that region. I was a camper at two UAHC camps as well as a counselor at two camps, including Camp Harlam. My Jewish involvement has continued on the col­lege campus where I am active at Hillel and I dance in Ayalah, an Israeli folk dancing troupe. I am excited about the upcoming year and I look forward to meeting and working with many mem­bers of the Har Sinai community.

PLEASE CHECK YOUR BOOKSHELVES!

Is it possible you have part of the Har Sinai Temple Library collection lost in your home?

If you find a book with a Har Sinai pocket in front, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE return it!

Religious School Reports _________ by Alexis Harnwn Roberts

Welcome Back to School The new school year is always an energized time of new beginnings. You will have

new books, new teachers, and perhaps some new friends. Of course, some things will not change. You will still be expected to have your pencils, homework, and tzedakah ready. Junior Services will still be every other week, and Cantor Liz will be visiting your class. The cycle of the holidays will bring some of the same much-loved celebrations: the Sukkah Decoration and the Purim Carnival, for example.

But there will also be a few new things to look forward to. Passover will be marked with an all-school model seder in the social hall. There will be one or two new faces on the staff. The Temple has begun recycling, and you will feel this in your classrooms when you have to learn to sort your trash. (Even if it is a little bother, it is a part of being a responsible caretaker of the earth, a role aSSigned to us since God created Adam.) Third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh graders can sign up for a weekend at Camp Harlam in the Poconos, along with students from other area Reform congregations.

Each of you is invited to visit the office and say hello. I always want to know how you like your class, and how you're dOing! I'll be very happy to greet you all again. Welcome Back!

How I Spent My Summer Vacation As you may know, my rabbinical studies took me to Israel this summer for six weeks

to study Hebrew in an Ulpan program together with new immigrants to Israel. I lived in an apartment in Jerusalem, and studied five hours each morning. I managed to do quite a lot of sightseeing, too; I think I swam in every major body of water in the vicinity: the Mediterranean, the Sea of Galilee, the Dead Sea, and the Red Sea! ("Actually, it's blue," as my son pointed out!)

Even with all the violence and tension, it is an awesome place. Both modern and ancient achievements crowd the imagination. Between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, one passes forested mountains that were completely bare fifty years ago.

In Jerusalem, the orthodox culture is very dominant. The general attitude toward liberal (Reform) Judaism is at best cautious. One liberal congregation was finally permitted to own a building only after a very publicized incident in which a chasid tried to dance away with one of their Torah scrolls during Simchat Torah. I joined a group of women near the Western Wall conducting a morning service that almost had a similar incident.

There is Russian everywhere nowadays in Israel; in the market, in the billboards. Probably a third of my Hebrew class was former Soviet citizens, there to start a new life. They represent a full assortment of political ideologies; very few are militant enough to want to go live in the West Bank.

Although the new immigrants receive a lot of help, they face a great deal of red tape, and difficulty finding work. The housing shortage is so acute that Israel has a home­less population for the first time. Still, no one, not even the homeless, are sorry about the latest wave of immigration. At a lecture, the speaker told the audience of eminent professors and rabbis that they should all come live in Israel: "Of course, then my job at the University would be in jeopardy, but come anyway and I'll complain later!"

One does feel the effects of the intifada. The people are constantly on alert for bombs, which explode regularly. The Arab market is often a spooky and abandoned cluster of alleys in the old city whenever a commercial strike is called in reprisal for some supposed offense by the Israelis.

On the other hand, the amount of danger there compared to here is questionable. While I was shuddering because soldiers had turned us back from a street suspected of having a bomb, my own parents in California were robbed at knife-point in their home. It's evidently just a matter of which danger you are used to.

I was continually reminded that I am a spoiled American who takes for granted peace, freedom, and plenty; and ice in my soda and good television. Even so, I got a fascinating glimpse of a culture that is foreign; and yet not foreign at all. I'm planning to go back next summer, so lately when I pray for peace in Jerusalem, I really mean it.

CORRECTION TO JULY-AUGUST BULLETIN

The $5,000 donation made by Dorothy Loewenthal to the Sanctuary Refurbish­ment Fund at the Annual Meeting in June was from Dorothy and her late husband Adolph Loewenthal.

At that time, Mrs. Lowenthal also made a donation to Sisterhood which was in memory of her brother Charles Burrison and sister Belle Jaspan.
