Adonai spoke to Moses saying, “Tell the Israelite people to bring Me gifts; you shall accept gifts for me from every person whose heart so moves them. And these are the gift that you shall accept from them: gold, silver and copper, blue, purple and scarlet yarn; … onyx stones and other stones to be set, for the ritual vest and breastplate. They are to make mea sanctuary, so that I may dwell among them.” — Exodus 25:1-9
“ “
Dating all the way back to the Torah, we have a long tradition of making our ritual objects even more holy by making them beautiful. At Chanukah we witnessed this as we dedi-
cated our new Torah covers, and we will have another opportunity to do so as we welcome glass and metal artist Gary Rosenthal to our congregation February 26–28.
In preparing with Gary for his visit to our congregation, he said something quite special: whatever he makes, whether it is Shabbat candlesticks, a menorah or a mezuzah, it is only glass and metal until someone takes it home, says a blessing over it, and uses it for a holy purpose. There has to be a partnership between the artist and the user or holiness cannot exist. As is evident from this brief conversation, Gary is not only an incredibly talented artist, but he is also an incredible mensch.
We are thrilled that Gary will be leading an entire weekend of activities. Come for one or all – there’s something for everyone!
Please do not miss this incredible opportunity we have, thanks in part to a grant we received from the Jewish Education Center of Cleveland. We are taught that entrances to holiness are everywhere and all the time. We hope you will join us for many of the wonderful opportunities to find holiness in art during this very special weekend.
B’shalom,Kim Rosner, President Rabbi Shana Nyer, Director of Lifelong Learning

What an exciting year for ST-KA! Most notably, we instituted Open Doors,
which replaced annual dues with voluntary charitable support of our congregation. We hoped to nurture a culture of philanthropy among our members. We think it’s working.
We selected an ambitious goal for the Annual Appeal: $36,000. A generous donor offered a great incentive to those making first-time gifts: a challenge grant which matched dollar for dollar every new
gift to a total of $2,500. Thanks to 31 new gifts, we met the challenge and even went a little bit over.
We are so pleased to report that as of January 11, we have raised $28,633, which is 80% of our goal.
We couldn’t do it without you! We thank everyone who has invested in ST-KA’s bright future. Your generosity is an inspira-tion to us all.
Your spark makes Suburban Temple-Kol Ami ever brighter. Thank you!
If we have inadvertently omitted a name, please accept our apologies and let us know so that we can make a correction.
Didn’t make your gift yet? It’s not too late! The Annual Appeal continues throughout this fiscal year. Please send your tax-deductible contribution
to the Temple or call 216.991.0700 to make a gift by credit card.
Staff Changes“ If we don’t change, we don’t grow. If we don’t grow, we aren’t really living.”
—Anatole France
We are living! And changing…as we’ve noted in the Temple Times, there are new and different faces in our temple administrative staff.
Thank you to Jill Ebenstein, who graced the office of Suburban Temple as our religious school administrative assistant for eight years. Jill’s last day was December 30th. Thank you to Jonathan Payes, congregant and former religious school teacher, who has graciously stepped in while we search for a new religious school assistant. Jonathan can be reached at 216.991.0700 ext. 101 or [email protected].
Thank you to Audrey Katzman, who has been our primary voice on the phones, administrative support for the board of trustees, Rabbi Vann, and Brett Shankman, since May of 2014. Audrey has moved into a part-time role with a greater focus on communica-tions and bookkeeping. We appreciate Audrey’s on-going commitment to Suburban Temple-Kol Ami and look forward to her continued contributions. Audrey can continue to be reached at the office number and through e-mail at [email protected].
Beginning Monday, January 11, we were joined by Dale Hopkins, who has taken over the primary adminis-trative assistant’s role. He comes to us with significant executive assistant experience and an unbridled enthusi-asm. Dale can be reached at the main number and via e-mail at [email protected].
Please welcome Dale with the warmth and friendship that Suburban Temple-Kol Ami is known for.
Thank you.Brett Shankman, Executive [email protected]

From Rabbi Vann:
Acknowledging a Broken World
On January 5, President Obama
gave an impassioned speech on reducing gun violence in the United States. The almost 40-minute speech was captured
in the news with pictures of the President in tears as he spoke of the first graders at Newtown who died at the hand of a mass killer. The speech outlined new executive actions that the President will push forward, such as background checks on all busi-nesses that sell guns, increased mental health care, reporting between states and working to create safer guns.
The President has struggled with the issue of gun violence during his presidency. While so many mass shootings and tragedies may point to an increased desire for a safer country, the increasingly partisan issue of gun control has created the opposite effect in our country, and even less restrictive laws surrounding guns have become the norm.
It appears that the tides are beginning to turn, however, and the President has begun to lead the path once again towards stem-ming gun violence.
This reminds me of our community read for this year—the chapter on on Tikkun Olam, in the book Judaism’s 10 Best Ideas. Rabbi Arthur Green writes, “In order to mend or repair something, you have to acknowledge that it is broken. Tikkun Olam begins with rec-ognizing that we live in a broken world.”
There are so many who have acknowl-edged that our world is broken, and have been working towards repair, by helping to
find solutions for a safer country, with solu-tions for common sense gun safety. I com-mend, in particular, Greater Cleveland Congregations, and the national organiza-tion, MetroIAF, for the campaign Do Not Stand Idly By. Greater Cleveland Congregations, of which Suburban Temple-Kol Ami is a member, has been working dili-gently and passionately on the campaign Do Not Stand Idly By which reduces gun vio-lence in our communities by working to trace illegal guns to where they were bought—gun stores, gun dealers, to investi-gate straw purchasers, multiple sales and stolen weapons, and in particular works with gun stores and dealers to prevent illegal sales. In this way, the campaign and GCC has pushed forward the issue of gun vio-lence in Cleveland and in the United States. Additionally, GCC and MetroIAF has pur-sued the technology of safer guns. At Suburban Temple-Kol Ami, Greg Passov has been a key member of the Do Not Stand Idly By campaign.
President Obama acknowledged that the work towards reducing gun violence and common sense gun safety will take a long time, and will be a lot of work: “We know we can’t stop every act of violence, every act of evil in the world. But maybe we could try to stop one act of evil, one act of violence.” The work in Cleveland has already been happening, and will continue, until our chil-dren are safe, as Rabbi Arthur Green writes, “It is our task to fix the broken world, to get it ready for a messianic era still to come.”

Shabbat and Worship Calendar
Carter Strang and his wife Deedra joined Suburban
Temple-Kol Ami a few years ago and have quickly become invaluable members of our con-gregational family. Carter is now serving his first term on the Temple Board of Trustees, and Deedra serves on the Lifelong Learning Committee.
Rabbi Vann has invited Carter to speak on Friday night, February 12, in honor of Black History month because of his rela-tionship with Congressman Louis Stokes, and the impact it had on Carter’s life.
Before attending law school, Carter earned both the Jennings Scholar and Taft Fellow teaching awards in his career as a high school teacher and coach. The first in his family to practice law, he became inter-ested in a legal career as a result of expo-sure to local attorneys – including former Congressman Louis Stokes – who were guest speakers in his classes.
Carter has found his teaching and coach-ing provided excellent leadership training, which he has put to use both at the firm as a trial attorney and in the community.
Carter notes, “My toughest audience was not a jury. It was a class of high school seniors during their last month of school. Keeping them interested and engaged was a real challenge.”
Carter is the only person to have served as president of both the Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association and the Federal Bar Association Northern District of Ohio Chapter. It is through those bar associations and as a Tucker Ellis partner that he creates and fosters innovative, award-winning edu-
cational, environmental, and diversity pro-grams and initiatives that serve as models nationwide.
During his tenure (2012–2013) as presi-dent of the Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association (CMBA), Carter created the Stokes Scholars Program, a pipeline diver-sity program that provides paid summer legal internships for college students. Fulfilling its motto, “Changing Lives One Student At A Time,” it won the 2014 Ohio State Bar Foundation Outstanding Program Award, the 2013 Expys Best New Internship Award, and the 2013 NABE LexisNexis Community & Educational Outreach Award. It is clear that Carter’s law career is exem-plary and his resume extensive. In December he published the article, “Remembering Civil Rights Icon Louis Stokes,” in the Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Journal, and we are honored that Carter will be able to share these memories and inspi-rations with our congregation.
Cater Strang to Speak in Honor of Black History Month
Greetings from Kol Nashim!Thank you to everyone who attended and participated in this year’s Kol Nashim Shabbat. It is one of our favorite events of the year as it gives us another opportunity to be together and worship. We had a record number of participants —29 wonderful women. What a beautiful service it was—we couldn’t have done it without you.
Rosh Hodesh Event PlannedLet’s celebrate together as women on Sunday, February 21, at 7 pm at our next Rosh Hodesh event at Spirit of Clay. Literally “the head of the month,” Rosh Hodesh marks the first day of each Jewish month and it is traditionally a women’s minor holiday. Join us for a paint night at Spirit of Clay, and their tal-ented staff will instruct us on how to cre-ate a canvas masterpiece. Well, short of a masterpiece, we are at least guaran-teed to have a few laughs and enjoy each other’s company.
The cost of the event is $40, which includes paint, canvas, instruction, light appetizers and beverages. Spirit of Clay is located at 828 SOM Center Road in Mayfield Village. Come and bring a friend – no artistic ability is needed. RSVP by Tuesday, February 16, to [email protected] or 216.991.0700).

Vintage Bagel BrunchSunday March 6 | 10 am
Vintage Suburban invites the entire congregation to their Bagel Brunch featuring speaker Louise Freilich. Mrs. Freilich is the director of Face to Face, Northeast Ohio’s only syna-

Get to Know Susan, Lyle, and Tali MerdlerHave you attended a congregational dinner, a holiday celebration, a Kol Nashim meeting, or a Religious School program? Have you found yourself dancing merrily to Klezmer music at a Vintage picnic or on Simchat Torah? Suburban Temple-Kol Ami is fortu-nate to have many committed members helping behind the scenes. Meet Susan, Lyle, and Tali Merdler: talented, engaged, and dedicated members - a family that exemplifies giving time and talent to our congregation.
In 2004, the Merdlers were looking for the right fit for their family as they anticipated Tali’s Bat Mitzvah. Their search for a congre-gation with a “warm, nurturing atmosphere with room to get involved” led Susan and Lyle to ST-KA. They jumped right into Temple life by volunteering in Tikkun Olam projects, decorating for holiday programs and con-gregational dinners, cooking and serving for Calvary Church, and of course bringing lively Klezmer music to special events. Susan also teaches in our religious school. (We could go on – these are just some of the high-lights!) The reason why they’ve stayed involved is simple, according to Susan. “Volunteering brings joy to my heart and a smile to my face,” she says.
Lyle notes, “I love the haimisha (warm and inviting) atmosphere, the outstanding music, the fascinating building that still looks mod-
ern and the many wonderful friends we have made at Shabbat. During a stretch between jobs, the spiritual and secular resources of ST-KA became very important.” Susan adds, “The environment continues to be one of warmth and involvement mixed in with friendship and spirituality.”
Susan holds a degree in gerontology from Kent State University and she has worked with adults over age 50 in various settings. Best known as a percussionist in the Workmen’s Circle Klezmer Orchestra, Lyle is a customer service representative at Pella Window and Door Service. Tali recently graduated with honors from Kent State University. She works for the Jewish Federation of Cleveland and for a refugee settlement organization.
Susan and Lyle enthusiastically agree: “The outcome of volunteering is without a doubt a win/win for all participating. Try it!”
