FROM THE RABBI
                   Indestructible: How Judaism changes, survives, and flourishes despite calamity

                    It is hard to imagine what it must have been like seeing the Temple in Jerusalem on fire.
                    A er months of Roman siege, brutality, starva on, and death on the Ninth of Av in the
year 70 CE the most beau ful and holy place in Jewish tradi on lay in ruin. At the me, all of Jewish ritual,
economic, and social life revolved around the Temple, priesthood, and the sacrificial system laid out in the
Torah. All Jewish holidays including Shabbat, sin offerings, thanksgiving offerings, and Jewish self‐government
were centralized and focused on the Temple and Jerusalem. What lay in ruin was not only this ancient tradi‐
  on but at its heart and soul the way we had connected with God ‐ the expression of God’s presence in our
personal and communal life and our yearning for a rela onship with the Divine. Quite frankly, this could have
spelled the end of Judaism and, yet, despite this horrific calamity, our faith and people survived and even
flourished.
        We are here today because what we hold as our core tradi ons, ethics, and beliefs not only can stand
the test of every me and age but because our Sages and leaders understood that for Judaism to survive and
flourish they would need to reimagine observance and be crea ve. From the crea on of the Passover seder,
to the crea ve expansion of communal and individual prayer in place of sacrifice, eleva ng the synagogue,
house of study, and home as holy places, and maybe most important the centrality of Torah study, Talmud,
and Midrash as an ever growing and changing force in Jewish life. Judaism adapted to become a portable reli‐
gion able to accompany our people wherever they went. Indeed, as we se led in new places around the
world, the influences and tradi ons of those locali es added to the crea ve growth and innova on of Jewish
prac ces, scholarship, and the arts (yes, culinary arts included).
        As Conserva ve Jews, we are guided by this historical truth that Judaism has always balanced
“Tradi on and Change”. As we con nue to find our way during this me of pandemic and social upheaval, I
am confident that together we will not only survive it but also find ways to make our tradi on stronger and
more commi ed. For one thing I have heard from so many of you how important the synagogue is to your
lives and how much it acts as a social, spiritual, and educa onal center for our personal and communal well‐
being. We need your support, par cipa on, and crea vity now more than ever. If you have ideas, Torah you
would like to share in a short d’var on Fridays for Kabbalat Shabbat, want to lead a service or learn how to
lead a service, read Torah from the Chumash, share a recipe, check on a friend or neighbor or suggest a topic
for adult educa on ‐ then now is the me to get involved!
        The destruc on of the Temple on Tisha B’Av was catastrophic as it led to exile, persecu on and mass
murder (the Inquisi on, pogroms, the Shoah) throughout our long history but has also shown us me and
again that Jewish tradi on with our faith in God are indestruc ble. Our understanding of God’s Torah and
halacha (Jewish law) with its ritual prac ces and tradi ons remain true to their core values and historical con‐
nec ons l’dor vador while also allowing flexibility, innova on, and relevance to speak to our souls yearning
for God’s presence and direc on in our moment of Jewish history.

Wishing everyone a safe and healthy summer!
Rabbi Michael Singer

                      Just as we did last month; we would like to send a great big MAZEL TOV to

                      home quarantining is still making the joyous gathering and fanfare of such a
                      momentous occasion as this, challenging but not “virtually” impossible. If you
                      have already submitted a photo for Ethan’s Bar Mitzvah, you do not need to
send another. For those who have not, We are asking that you take an individual photo of your-
self and send it to us digitally along with a few words of encouragement for Ben. Ideally we
would like to receive the photos no later than July 7th. We plan to enlarge the images, print
them out and tape them to your usual seat in the Sanctuary for the virtual streaming of his cer-
emony.
Thank you again, be well and continue to stay safe.

Message from the Ad Hoc Covid‐19 Preparedness Commi ee

Dear Friend,

We would like to provide you with updates because Pennsylvania has recently gone into the Green Phase.
Note that we are s ll in a wait‐and‐see period because the state’s average daily number of new cases of
Covid‐19 has recently been on the rise. Numbers in more than half the states in the U.S. are climbing quickly.
We will con nue to update you on a regular basis as our plans evolve. We also invite your ques ons,
thoughts, and input as we con nue our planning and evalua on efforts.

Report on Ethan Caine’s Bar Mitzvah

As men oned in our previous le er/FAQ, there was a simcha celebrated privately on June 20 in the main
sanctuary of Brith Sholom. This was a gathering of 25 people, including the family, guests, Rabbi Singer, Can‐
tor Sam, and staff.

The service was beau ful. Mazel tov to Ethan and the en re Caine Family!

All in a endance wore masks, sat in assigned seats, and cooperated fully. There was intermi ent cleaning
during the service and extreme care taken in the planning phases.

Though not a precedent for other life cycle events, this was a pilot to see whether a service with this number
of people would be manageable and meaningful. From all reports and observa ons, it certainly was. While
we received posi ve feedback, there are s ll a very few minor details we need to iron out for an upcoming
bar mitzvah, also to be privately celebrated, in July.

Starry Services

We an cipate resuming Starry Services, led by Alan Cohen, but with some different features. Save the date,
July 17. Services will be in the lower parking lot in designated spaces. You must make a reserva on and make
a commitment to be in place by a specific me. Details forthcoming from the Ritual and Ad Hoc commi ees.

Updated A endance Policy

As shared with you in our previous le er/FAQs, we had restricted the invited guests to the June private bar
mitzvah to those under 65. However, a er addi onal considera on as well as feedback on that policy, we
feel that an advisory would be more appropriate.

Our new policy: We strongly suggest that people 65 and over and all those with underlying condi ons stay
home from services and other synagogue events for now.

Mask Wearing Policy

For the foreseeable future, our policy at Brith Sholom is for anyone entering the building, which includes
congregants, staff, visitors, trade/delivery people, and those ren ng or using space in the building to wear a
mask that covers the mouth and nose:

                                                                                                                 4
Congregation Brith Sholom
Message from the Ad Hoc Covid‐19 Preparedness Commi ee ‐ Cont’d

any me three or more people are present in the same space or room;
any me two people are present and less than 10 feet apart in any room; and
before, during, and a er services.

Office Update

The office is not open yet. There is a covered box outside the door in order to pick up or drop off items if
you call Tammy and arrange to do so. Please call ahead.

High Holidays

It is s ll too early for the actual specifics of how the High Holidays will be observed but be assured that the
Ritual Commi ee is working with Rabbi Singer and this commi ee to arrive at the most engaging, respon‐
sible, and authen c version of Brith Sholom’s High Holidays possible in the me of Covid.

Addi onally, Rabbi Singer and the other Lehigh Valley Jewish clergy are sharing ideas and solving the issues
surrounding services. Current best prac ces say communi es are strongest when regional clergy coordi‐
nate re‐openings.

New Years Greeting Book - 2020-5781

Dear Fellow Congregant:

       One of Brith Sholom's most referenced publications is the Annual New Year's Greeting
  Book and Directory. For decades, our congregants have utilized the directory to wish
  fellow congregants a happy and healthy new year, to honor or memorialize a relative or
  friend, or to give special thanks. The directory is also one of Brith Sholom's major
  fundraising resources each year.

       Your message shows visible support for our synagogue and the proceeds directly sup-
  plement our annual operating budget. We celebrate Rosh Hashanah on September 19th and
  20th and Yom Kippur on September 28th . Please complete the attached form to reserve
  your greeting space - apply a special 10% discount if you complete and return the form
  by July 15, 2020. Final deadline for all greetings is August 14, 2020.

       The directory is our best means of sharing contact information with each
       other. Regardless of whether you place a greeting or not, every member of the con-
  gregation is entitled to a listing in the directory. We would also like to include your
  children's names (graduate school and younger), current e-mail addresses and wedding
  anniversary dates. There is no charge for including this information, just fill in
  the appropriate lines on the form.
       The Greeting Book this year will be dedicated to YOU – Fellow Congregants.
       As you know, the world is going through some interesting times that are caus-
  ing health and financial issues for a lot of people and businesses. Therefore,
  please understand that the greeting you had in last year’s New Year’s Greeting
  Book will appear in this year’s New Year’s Greeting Book, (same size and same con-

  form which you will receive in the mail.

                                            Own Your High Holiday Mahzor

The shul has at least fifty Mahzorim left from our original purchase. This year, Covid-19 may cause High
Holiday services to be virtual. If you would like to own a Mahzor for the High Holidays, please e-mail or
call Tammy at the office. The cost for a new Mahzor Lev Shalem is $36.00. Your own High Holiday pray-
er book will be personalized with a nameplate indicating it belongs to you.

                                      Shabbat and Holiday Prayer Books
Do you need a Shabbat and Holiday Prayer book for home use in order to follow our virtual services? We
can help you. The shul will lend you a Sim Shalem prayer book. Please note this is the previous version
used for our services. E-mail or call the office and Tammy will make the necessary arrangements to place
the prayer book outside the building for you to pick it up. Thank you for your understanding these pickup
procedures.

YAHRZEIT PLAQUES
         These bronze plaques are permanent tributes to your loved ones. Unlike many of the
         other synagogues both here in the Valley and in other places, our Yahrzeit Memorial Wall
has individual lights that are turned on during the week of the Yahrzeit. It does not matter how long
ago a grandparent, parent or, G-d forbid, a child has died, the memory is still there. Traditionally,
we show respect and love for our departed family members by this annual demonstration of re-
membrance. We say Kaddish in shul. We hold them in the forefront of our hearts and minds, and,
for many of us, by the public illumination of their names on the Memorial Wall. The price for a
plaque is $300. The price to reserve a space is still $25.
                           To reserve a space or order plaques, please contact :
                                  Sandy Wruble (610-865-2474)
