A MESSAGE FROM
Rabbi Ronald M. Shapiro
January is always a month which
allows reason to ponder. A new year
begins and thereby compels us to
make resolutions. Jewish people
are afforded two pivotal times to
ponder our lives in order to make
commitments which enhance life
!"#$%&'()$!*+&,$%-!%$%.$/0$!$102$34$%.$
act in a manner that enhances life.
One such time is Rosh HaShanah,
and the second is the approach of the New Year. Here follows
an activity which may enable you to feel that you are offering
your support and conviction to a cause which is noble and
advances the lives of people.
The Bible teaches: “Forsake me not in my old
age”, and here is a meaningful opportunity to
fulfill this mitzvah of enhancing people’s lives in
“old age”.
Congregation Shalom is a participating partner with a
meaningful and important agency named Interfaith Older Adult
Programs. Our synagogue is associated with their North Shore
Chapter, Shoreline. I am very proud that Congregation Shalom
is a partner and supporter of Shoreline Interfaith. Interfaith
coordinates programming and support for older adults.
Shoreline offers through volunteer services a “much-needed
helping hand that allows older adults to remain living in their
own homes.” Indeed, Shoreline’s mission is to link older adults
with a caring community. Here awaits you an opportunity to
provide a hands-on volunteer activity which enhances the
#35"3%)$.*$40"3.&$!#'(%46$!4$20(($!4$#0&370$%-0$*'(+((,0"%$.*$
helping those senior citizen neighbors stay independent.
The volunteer opportunities revolve around giving rides to
seniors in the North Shore so that they can be transported to
medical appointments, grocery shopping, or banking tasks. If
we can enhance other people’s lives, and correspondingly make
"02$*&30"#46$20$*'(+(($!$,3443."$%.$,!80$%-0$2.&(#$!$/0%%0&$9(!:0$
to live, and we derive meaning from our lives.
I recently offered the invocation at the Interfaith annual
luncheon, and I was moved by the testimonies of volunteers
who stated that providing these simple day-to-day tasks for
seniors enhanced their lives. Some volunteers said that though
Interfaith only expects volunteers to drive seniors once or twice
a month, they found the relationships so meaningful that they
.**0&0#$%.$#&370$90.9(0$+70$%3,04$!$2008;$<$&0!(3=0$%-!%$70&)$*02$
people could provide such service, yet what was inspiring was
the passion expressed by some to offer friendship and service
to senior neighbors. The Bible teaches: “Forsake me not in
,)$.(#$!50>6$!"#$-0&0$34$!$,0!"3"5*'($.99.&%'"3%)$%.$*'(+(($%-34$
mitzvah of enhancing people’s lives in “old age”. How meaningful
it is for elderly people to be able to remain within their home.

experienced photographers and videographers
willing to donate time and talent to help capture
the weekend’s events. To learn more or volunteer,

RABBI SHAPIRO MESSAGE (continued from page 1)
They just are unable to get themselves to some of the activities
that we all take for granted by virtue of our mobility and our
automobiles. One man who spoke at the luncheon said, “After
!"#$%&#$'"()'"*+,-.%"/$()&)-0,1"(2%&3&%45"!"6(*"0+#%,)(%$"%+"7)'"
that opportunity through Interfaith. I feel as if I have enriched the
lives of other people, and those people, so vibrant and kind, so
interesting and warm, have correspondingly enriched my life.”
I hope you may enjoy this meaningful activity which indeed
&*"("/&%83(."+0"'$$9"*&-)&72()2$:";+,"(#$"*+"6$12+/$"%+"2(11"
me to see how to be involved with Shoreline Interfaith, or you
may simply call them at 414-962-9950. Shoreline is located in
Shorewood at 1200 E. Hampton Rd. If you like, you may tell
them that you are a member of Congregation Shalom, as they
know that there may be calls from members of our congregation.
I know that it is said, “You are only as old as you feel”. Yet,
if we assist others to feel cared for and respected, then that
person may become “an old friend” and that help you will offer
may just provide a youthful skip in your step.

A MESSAGE FROM
RABBI MARCEY
The weekend of February 6-8, Alex Cicelsky (http://urjbiennial.
>"$).6#?<3;@2$3,*"@;";+"$@ABCDEFG&()**&+"&#6&H3-0$"0#6)3-&
Shalom for the weekend. He is an Israeli Ecologist and will be
doing programs for students and adults focusing on the care
and feeding of our environment along with incorporating art,
story and music. We are also planning a “Sunday Switch” day.
Abby Habush Schroeder, our Director of Synagogue Relations
brought this idea back from a programming conference. On
a date to be announced, students and parents will switch for
the day, and parents will have an opportunity to experience a
Religious School day as if they were their children! Relax, we
will not force you to conjugate Hebrew verbs, indeed we have a
compelling program that I am sure you will enjoy.
We have many, many other great things to come! The
Purim Shpiel, the carnival and auction, other speakers and
programs for the students, more Family Education, celebrations
and concerts and culminating in a very special weekend to
honor our beloved teacher, Rabbi Shapiro.
We have multiple offerings for those interested in adult
education: classes, speakers, movie nights for adults, there
will be a fascinating program in March with Angela Schulter,
the daughter of Edith Hahn Beer, who was an Austrian Jewish
woman who survived the Holocaust by hiding her Jewish

attend our Welcome Back Pancake
breakfast on January 4. It’s a wonderful time to reconnect with
friends and trade vacation stories or talk about the fun things
you did over break.
As I write this, I am thinking about all of the great things we
have done so far this school year and the many to come! The
students and teachers have been enjoying the “Torah Specials”.
Every other week or so I meet with the students and we do
Torah study in a very similar way that it is done on Shabbat
mornings; the students ask excellent questions and it gives us
an opportunity to ponder some of life’s mysteries and to share
our ideas about the best way to move through the world, the
best way to always be a mensch!

We have much to look forward to in school programming:
Welcome Back from Winter Break
PANCAKE BREAKFAST!
We will celebrate the return to Religious School on Sunday, January 4,
with a Pancake Breakfast. That morning please take your children to their
classrooms (there will not be services that morning), and then the classes
will come up together. We encourage parents and younger
siblings to stay and join us for breakfast! The more the
merrier!
Special thank you to our Sisterhood for
sponsoring our breakfast and for volunteering
their time to help with the breakfast.

NOTES FROM
CANTOR KAREN
asked those same people in what Hebrew month their birthdays
fall, I would be answered by blank stares. What happens to
the memories of our experiences if we no longer have the
vocabulary to describe them? One might question why this
matters but I believe that in our synagogue community being
able to articulate our celebration, our study, our lives in the actual
words of our Jewish history means that it isn’t just history.
Calendars… We have them on our
desks, in our phones or computers,
and some brave few even keep
them in their heads! I sometimes
think I live my life in 15 minute
increments and catalogue all that is
accomplished. So when I read an
article in a recent HUC — JIR
(Hebrew Union College — Jewish
Institute of Religion) newsletter about
Jewish life and learning, I was reminded by the author that we
Jews are doubly blessed. We not only live in secular time, but
we also have a Jewish calendar superimposed on our lives.
We of course live in a modern western culture. As Jews, we
have emerged from the ghetto, from the shtetl, from centuries
of segregation self-imposed or created by others into a world
seeming to welcome us with open arms.
But Jewish lives also need Jewish time, that wonderful
rhythm of the lunar calendar that has us celebrating the new
moon each month and a New Year which comes in our seventh
month. Throughout the Torah, we are given gifts of time.
Shabbat, of course, which offers a weekly island of time, and
Festivals which three times each year urged our ancestors to
gather and celebrate. Other holidays and observances added in
response to our people’s historical experience created a fabric
of time which has come through history to us today.
I would say with likely assuredness, that if asked, most
congregants could tell me without hesitation the day and time
of the next Green Bay Packer’s game. But in all likelihood if I
... we Jews are doubly blessed. We not only
live in secular time, but we also have a
Jewish calendar superimposed on our lives.
So here is my hope. Maybe a few of you will glance at that
Jewish calendar you got in the mail in September. Perhaps you’ll
make note of the date your Ketubah was signed or observe your
loved one’s yahrzeit on the Hebrew date as well as the English
date. I myself write letters of congratulation to our B’ne Mitzvah
and always include the Hebrew calendar date so that they will
have some record of it. If there is a special date from your
personal history you’d like to mark, perhaps your birthday, bar or
bat mitzvah, please call or email me and I will look it up for you.
Our second graders have been learning a song about
the names of Hebrew months. I want them to use this new
vocabulary. So as 5775 continues and 2015 begins on the 10th
of Tevet don’t hesitate to ask us what comes next. After all if
Tevet is here, can Shevat be far behind?

Silver has written a wonderful book entitled, “Invisible.” I might
add that Ruth is blind, and she is a very special woman. On
March 11, we will again welcome Ben Merens, who many of you
have requested to have return to us. In the future, we will have
Neil Willenson who was the founder of Camp Heartland and has
recently founded an organization that helps children who have
lost a parent serving in the military. He is an unbelievable young
man! He will also tell us about the Chinooks baseball team.
There are many other people I have contacted and am
waiting for a response. But at our January meeting, we will
discuss our future.
Our YOUNG AT HEARTS group meets on the second
Wednesday of every month at 10 a.m. at Temple Shalom. All
senior singles are welcome to join us at any time! It would be
very nice to make some new friends in the new year!
WOW! What a delightful morning we had at the Domes. Our
city is so fortunate to have these domes. They sure take a lot
of work, and we so appreciated it. By the way, if any of you were
concerned that there would be a lot of Christmas decorations,
how wrong you were! Each dome had its own theme and
Christmas was not one of them!
The Show Dome’s theme was Hawaiian….Melekikimaka.
There were Birds of Paradise, banana plants, poinsettias,
pineapple plants, Buddhist pine trees, and tikis from the south
sea islands. There were many other wonderful plants and trees,
which we all loved.
The Desert Dome had many varieties of cactus, which were
unreal. The plants were from Madagascar, Africa, and many
other countries. There were elephant trees, river bottom palms,
Mother-in-law’s tongue, shaving brush tree, only to mention a
few unbelievable species. This was our botany lesson.
The third dome was the Tropical Dome. If you were cold,
this was the place to warm up. There were so many unusual
plants and trees in this rainforest….sugar apple trees, travelers
tree, Queen Anthurium, Calabash tree, and so many more.
All in all, it was a fabulous experience for those who went.

NEW BOOKS IN OUR LIBRARY! by Ellen Abrams Blankenship
Look for these new additions to the Pastor Memorial Library…
The Winter Horses, by Philip Kerr (2014). In this Young Adult
book, Kalinka is alone on the frigid, snowy Ukrainian steppe.
She is pursued by Nazis. Tracked like prey. The cold is strangling
her, and the hunger won’t go away. No food, no warmth, no help.
Except for a loyal dog and two remarkable horses she is trying
to save, against all odds. Her only allies. Are they enough?
Members of the Tribe, Native America in the Jewish
Imagination, by Rachel Rubenstein (2010). This book examines
interventions by Jewish writers into an ongoing American
!"#$%&"'%(&)*%'+)'+,)-%."/%&"01)2&3%"&45)6&3%&/)%&)'+%#)6/70,)")
mirror for their own anxieties about tribal and national belonging.
Through a diverse series of literary readings, Rubenstein traces a
shifting and unstable dynamic of imagined Indian-Jewish kinship.
Plus a few newer ones that have been on the shelves for a bit…
The Lost Matriarch, Finding Leah in the Bible and Midrash,
by Jerry Rabow (2014). This is a unique response to the sparse
and puzzling biblical treatment of the matriarch Leah. Through
weaving of biblical text and midrash, readers learn the lessons
of the remarkable Leah, who triumphed over adversity and
hardship by living a life of moral heroism.
Open Heart, by Elie Weisel (2012)
Covenant of the Generations: New Prayers, Poems, and
Meditations from Women of Reform Judaism, (2013)
Sisterhood: A Centennial History of Women of Reform
Judaism, (2013)
Nest, by Esther Ehrlich (2014). This Young Adult book features

house. But when life feels too hard, she and her friend Joey
create their own private world and come up with the perfect
plan: Escape. Adventure. Discovery.
A Tale of Two Soldiers: The Unexpected Friendship
Between a WWII American Jewish Sniper and a
German Military Pilot, by
Max Gendelman, (2013)
Jewish Meaning in a World of Choice, Studies in Tradition
and Modernity, by David Ellenson (2014). Written by a former
president of HUC-JIR, these are 23 essays on a description and
examination of the complex push and pull between Jewish
tradition and Western culture. Among other topics, he addresses
gender equality, women’s rights, conversion, issues relating to
who is a Jew, the future of the rabbinate, Jewish day schools,
plus religious tolerance and pluralism in Israel.
Books are listed in the black binder
under both Author and Title. Then
just use the call numbers to locate
the book on the shelves!
