Messages from our ClergyRosh Hashanah – September 29/30

Yom Kippur – October 8/9

There is a proverb attributed to the ancient Chinese philosopher Lao Tse which

states: “A journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step.” Needless to say,

the proverb’s meaning is obvious. It is also profound. Obvious, because we cannot

go anywhere without that first step. Profound because that first step is crucial in ev-

erything we do. Energy is needed to take that first step, but vision is needed to un-

derstand where we are going and why

.

The holidays we are about to embark upon require both efforts to reach an under-

standing of our lives and how they impact others. Most importantly, however, is

how these holidays impact each of us individually. Some will wonder about why, atthis stage in our lives, do we need to be concerned about where we are going? Well, truth be told, if we don’t

know where we are going, how can we ever get there.

So, where is it we are going? Let’s start the day – we are going to “get up,” we are going to fix “breakfast,” we

are going to get “dressed,” we are going to start our “day.” Simple enough! However, all these things lead us to

a very import aspect of life – purpose. This is the one ingredient that is necessary for a meaningful life that

never ends just because of age. It is the impetus for fulfillment.

This, in essence, is what these holidays are all about. Sure, we utter words, we listen to music, we perform cer-

tain rituals, and we leave satisfied that we have reached another milestone in our lives. However, the real sig-

nificance can be found in sitting next to a friend or relative, exchanging wishes for a better year ahead, and

understanding that when we take that first step it is the step of continuation.

Life is the significant word we read in the prayer book. Life is the culmination of the past and the beginning of

the future. When we utter the compelling phrase, “May you be inscribed in the Book of Life,” we are proclaim-

ing that Rosh Hashanah represents the beginning of the rest of our lives. It is a time to set aside the petty griev-

ances and insignificant animosities to remember that what we do with the rest of our lives is what really matters.

Rosh Hashanah was designed to help us in our journey – it is the first step in completing the next one and the

next one after that. Each step we take can give us the ability to look forward while still remembering what we

left behind.

Perhaps you will be interested in learning more about Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur during my two upcom-

ing lectures at the Chapel Center: September 24 – “Preparing for a great experience of practices, traditions and

rituals of the High Holidays.” October 29 – An evaluation of our High Holiday experiences and “How it taught

us to deal with aging gracefully and our physical and emotional changes.”

In the meantime, I am looking forward to spending my 17th High Holidays with you. The Hebrew letters that

equal 17 spell the word “Tov” – and, yes, it has been good to be with you these years. I hope it has been good

for you. I look forward to another year of fulfillment and joy as we continue taking that first step together into a

new chapter in our lives.

Sandi joins me is wishing everyone a great, joyous New Year.

Rabbi Irwin Wiener, D.D.

President’s Message

Congregant’s Thank you Notes

We thank you for your expressions of sympathy on the death of our sister-in-law, Shirley Codkind. Your

kindness is very much appreciated.

The Codkind Family

It is difficult to find words that will adequately express my gratitude for all the love, concern, assistance,

calls and cards from my SLJC family.

So I will simply say THANK YOU - you have touched myheart!!!

Appreciatively, Shirley Gersten

As we look forward to a new year, we all pray for one of peace, good health, respect among peoples, and the

warmth of family and friendships. Jim and I wish you all a very happy and wonderful New Year.

Looking ahead, I have an image in my mind of what synagogue represents. To me, it is a three-pillared organi-

zation. The first, of course, is spirituality. I find the combination of prayer and music an experience that

strengthens me and calms me at the same time. I can forget any concerns on my mind and breathe deeply,

knowing I have been gifted with an ability to cope.

The second pillar is community. Sun Lakes Jewish Congregation, put simply, is us. It is all of us. We may

come from completely different backgrounds and experiences, yet we are here now as one. Individually, we

contribute to a whole that puts forth an important face to the world. Yes, as a people we have been threatened

and made fearful at times, even worse. But we are strong. Especially as a congregation primarily composed of

“seniors,” one way we choose to show who we are is by defining ourselves through our membership in an insti-

tution that is communal. When I sit on the bima each month and look out, it is overwhelmingly heartening to

see all of you sitting there and participating in our shared Jewish activity.

Beyond spirituality and community, the third pillar, fiscal stability, is much more pragmatic. To continue to

exist—to thrive, actually—we need fiscal stability. The Board of Directors meets monthly to discuss and make

decisions that affect the fiscal stability of Sun Lakes Jewish Congregation. These decisions, among others, in-

clude our dues structure, our pricing plans for such things as guest tickets for High Holiday services, and our

pricing plans for community catered events such as the Break-the-Fast and the community Seder. All these

decisions are informed by what costs we know we will incur (i.e. salaries, rent, insurance, member services,

committee expenses, etc.) as well as estimates of dues, donations, and other income sources. The sensible deci-

sions of the Board of Directors have led us to function within reasonable and stable budgetary guidelines.

Yet all of theses pillars depend totally on you. It is your commitment to membership and to donations that al-

lows Sun Lakes Jewish Congregation to continue to be a viable Jewish institution. It is also your commitment

to perpetuate traditional and new activities by your volunteerism, financial support, and attendance. But we

need more of you and from you. We have so many capable individuals among us—we need you to step up and

join the Board of Directors or lead single activities. Sun Lakes Jewish Congregation is only as strong as its

members, and our success over time has come about because we have developed effective leadership. I am

speaking to each of you personally. Every one of you has something to contribute. As we look forward to this

new year, won’t you say yes to our SLJC community?

Havurah Chai

Havurah Chai, is a Social group for Senior Jewish Singles now in its 4th year. There are two events held

monthly. Annual dues are your smiles and your reward is making new friends as our membership has grown to

35 fun seekers. For information please contact Lainy Sardina 480-894-0974 [email protected]

Men’s ClubThe Men’s Club is a social organization that meets the first Tuesday of the month from September through

June. We have interesting speakers from our community to address our membership each of these months.

Guests are always invited, and refreshments are provided. The organization also has special lunches as well as

various site visits in the local area. The Temple membership is encouraged to be members of the Men’s Club to

enable fellowship throughout our Jewish Community and achieve our social responsibility as a Jewish Com-

munity. Membership dues are due on July 1st each year. It is truly the BEST DEAL in town.

Men’s Club also collects non-perishable food for local food banks prior to monthly services curbside in front of

the Chapel. Sheldon Kruger has been performing this activity and reports the amount of food collection each

the month. However, Sheldon can no longer perform this due to illness and a volunteer or volunteers are

needed for this very helpful and needed service. Please donate and consider volunteering for this needed serv-

ice!

The next meeting is scheduled for September 3rd at 6:30pm at the Chapel Center. Our speaker will be Author

Howard Gershkowitz. As always, wives and prospective members are always welcome. Mr. Gershkowitz the

author of “The Operator: How I Wrote and Published My First Novel.” The Annual Lox and Bagel Brunch is

scheduled for September 22, 2019 for paid-up members. Mark your calendars!

Free Loan Association Phoenix; and Kim Moyers- Downtown Chandler Development Director. A visit is also

scheduled for the PING Golf Club Factory 17-18 October 2019. Many have signed up for this event and there

are still some openings. Future events, visits, and lunches are being planned.

Tech in Israel and the Power of the American; Impacting US Israel Relations beyond Political Advocacy

Lieb Bolel, CEO of the Arizona Israel Technology Alliance will speak about bilateral trade between Israeli

companies and Arizona. Since its inception in October 2017, Leib, founder of the Alliance, has increased from

12 to 18 the number of Israeli companies with operations in Arizona. The AITA has supported more the 100

companies seeking to increase ties to Arizona, and has led many trade delegations to Israel. His efforts, in

collaboration with the state government, led to the future creation of an Arizona Trade Office in Israel.

Liebs knowledge of the Israeli Tech scene is unmatched by anyone in Arizona. He has had many personal ex-

periences to share. His perspective will be enlightening and will also generate pride in Israel and now the Ari-

zona connection. Don’t miss it!

Our assisted living is accredited for two reasons. You. And your family. Because having the confidence & peace of

mind of accreditation is important. That’s why

SRG communities are accredited by CARF

International. It’s an independent organization

that sets exceedingly high standards for care and

service. It’s a lot like an accreditation for a hospital

or college. Or a five-star rating for a hotel.

We think you’ll find that our accreditation

is only one of the many reasons you’ll

like what you see.
