Young Israel Beth El of Borough Park 30th Anniversary Dinner November 4, 2018 3

Young Israel Beth El of Borough Park 30th Anniversary Dinner November 4, 2018 4 FROM THE DINNER CHAIR On the 13 day of Kislev, 5750, December 10, 1989, I attended my first annual dinner at Young Israel Beth El of Borough Park. It was a month since my arrival in the US and it just happened to be the first dinner since the merger between Young Israel and Beth El. Twenty-nine years later I was appointed as the Dinner Chairman. It is truly an honor and a privilege, but also a responsibility to make the event successful. It has been a few years since our last Shul Dinner. For years, Mr. Martin Fruchter A”H and Mr. Karl Weisstuch A"H organized the annual dinners very successfully. I am humbled to follow in their footsteps. I hope that the renewal of the dinner campaign will restart this important and essential function as it is a main fundraiser for our Shul. It will help us continue our beautiful services and inspired Torah classes, provided by tonight’s guests of Honor, Rabbi Moshe and Rebbetzin Snow, and Chazzan and Mrs. Benzion Miller. Ours is a true Bait Mikdash Kattan, one that will celebrate 100 years in 2020. I hope that by that time we and our Shul will all be transplanted in Yerushalayim with the coming of Moshiach, In the meantime, let’s turn Young Israel Beth El of Borough Park into the Great במהרה בימנו Synagogue of . Finally, I would like to thank the members of the Dinner Committee for their efforts in our campaign, including our honoree Mordechai (Mark) Rottenstein. They deserve an enormous Hakarat Hatov. -Ilan Rubin

Young Israel Beth El of Borough Park 30th Anniversary Dinner November 4, 2018 5 THE HONOREES: RABBI MOSHE & REBBETZIN SYMA SNOW

בס"ד לעולם Fifty years sounds like a long time. In fact the Torah word means forever and also refers to the Yovel which is fifty years. In Shemos 21;6, when talking about the length of time a servant is which literally means ‘he shall serveועבדו לעולם :indentured it says forever’ but actually refers to the fact that he only has to work at that I could never have foreseen I did indeed become one. And the maximum fifty years until the Yovel, jubilee year. just as my vocation was hidden from me, so were all the myriad blessings that have come my way because of this wonderful In Shemos 3;15, when Hashem is talking to Moshe at the burning which here means not only that “this position. The outstanding people I have had the privilege to ,”זה שמי לעולם”,bush, He says .means meet, work with and learn from have enriched my life עלם is my name forever,” but as Rashi points out the word hidden. Hashem’s name is hidden from us. We spell it one way but pronounce it another because the full name of Hashem is Yasher Koach to the leadership and members of the Young hidden from us and was only pronounced in the Bais Hamikdash. Israel Beth El of Borough Park for all their confidence and support over these many years. Thank you for this Honor. The Kavod you .Combining two of the have given me is yours ”.עולם“ The Torah word for “world” is also meanings of this very enigmatic word gives us the idea that our world is hidden from us. None of us really knows what is in store I have strong feelings of Hakoras Hatov to the Ribono Shel Olam for us. Even when we are quite young, and planning a career, for guiding me in the path that has enabled me to share and we do not know what kinds of twists and turns that chosen career path will take us on. In fact, at times we may find that a teach His Torah. In truth, all my efforts on behalf of the Klal, both totally different career than the one we planned on is where we in my service as a Mesivta Rebbe at the Jewish Educational end up. Hashem has chosen that path for us, and had it hidden. Center of Elizabeth, and my tenure as the Youth Director and later Menahel Ruchani and then Rav of Young Israel Beth El of If someone would have said to me when I was still seeking my Borough Park, are attributed to my devoted Rebbetzin. To echo path in life, “you’re going to be a Rabbi,” I would have seriously the words of Rabbi Akiva , “All my Torah, and all my students questioned that person’s sanity. But through a series of events Torah, is hers.” May we be Zocheh to gather together at the greatest celebration of all time, when we dance to greet the Moshiach, speedily and in our time.

FROM THE HONOREES: CHAZZAN & MRS.

THE HAKORAS HATOV AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING SERVICE TO YIBE

MORDECHAI (MARK) ROTTENSTEIN

From the beginning of my Jewish education at Yeshiva Etz Chaim through Mirrer Yeshiva, I never dreamt that I would be bestowed with such an honor as this year’s Hakoros Hatov Award. My Torah learning today, and hopefully through the days of the Meshiach שליט"א is from our esteemed Rabbi, Rav Moshe Snow ,במהרה בימנו whom I have had the privilege of knowing since the days of the old Young Israel of Borough Park on 50th Street. Together with our world renowned Chazzan Ben Zion Miller we will be enhancing this soon- to-be-centennial shul for many years to come. .to the Dinner Honorees יישר כוחכם - Mordechai (Mark) Rottenstein

Young Israel Beth El of Borough Park 30th Anniversary Dinner November 4, 2018 9 FROM THE PRESIDENT – JUDD ODZER

We have come together to celebrate two great milestones - Fifty years of service for Rabbi Moshe Snow and thirty six years for Chazzan Benzion Miller. Of course, both backed by equally dedicated spouses. We all come to Shul and expect both Klei Kodesh to be like the lights or the heat, always available at the flick of a switch, without any idea of how much work goes into making sure the Shul continues to function. For over fifty years Rabbi Snow has seen to it that all the minyanim continue to function, that halachic shailos get answered, that mispallilim get along, that there are a multitude of shiurim available, that weddings, Bar Mitzvahs, funerals and other religious ceremonies are done k'daas uk'din. He has worked to make the Shul a place for all to feel comfortable attending, so they can get closer to Hashem. All of this with an overarching goal of bringing achdus to Klal Yisroel while trying to make the world a better place and maintaining the Kedusha of our Mikdash Me'at. For over thirty six years at Young Israel Beth-El, Chazzan Miller has managed to inspire thousands of people as a world renowned leader of tefilos - incorporating a deep understanding of not only the literal meaning of the words but the subtle nuances, encapsulated in his heartfelt expression. His mastery of nusach and dikduk has added an immeasurable dimension to the Shul's davening. His knowledge of chazzanus, music and nigunim have transformed piyutim into extraordinary tefillos that reach the inner depths of the soul. Human nature is to take for granted that which becomes routine, that which becomes expected. I want to take this time to recognize the great dedication that Rabbi and Rebbetzin Snow have shown to our Shul and community for over fifty years and to Chazzan and Mrs. Miller for over thirty six years of service. On behalf of the board of directors and the entire congregation I would like to give a huge Mazel Tov and Yasher Koach. We appreciate all that you do. May you continue to serve the Shul and Klal Yisroel in good health for many more years to come. I would also like to recognize the dedication and devotion of Mark Rottenstein, who has been an anchor of the Shul for many decades. Behind the scenes he continues to support the day to day operations of the Shul as well as the many events, shiurim and projects offered to the community. We truly have tremendous hakaras hatov for everything you do.

Young Israel Beth El of Borough Park 30th Anniversary Dinner November 4, 2018 10 FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD

Dear fellow members and friends of Young Israel Beth El of Borough Park, that has חסדי ה' Our 30th anniversary dinner gives us an opportunity to reflect upon the graced our magnificent Shul and that gives us the fortitude to continue the important functions that our Shul provides to our community. Yes, the need for a community Shul is as evident as ever. All are welcome – no one is turned away. We play a vital role that, with the help of Hashem, will continue into the next century of our Shul’s existence - in just two short years we will celebrate our building’s centennial anniversary. Consider our timeline and you will notice that our Rav and Chazzan have been a big part of our Shul’s history. Along with our Hakoras Hatov awardee, Mordechai (Mark) Rottenstein, they have followed in the footsteps of their predecessors and have kept our treasured traditions vibrant and alive. We had big shoes to fill in making this dinner – those of Karl Weisstuch, a”h, and Marty Fruchter, a”h, giants of community service whose tireless efforts made all the difference to our Shul. We can only hope that we are successful in making this night enjoyable and meaningful to all. May your support for our Shul be a bracha for you and your families for many years to come. David Beck

FROM THE WOMEN’S LEADERSHIP COUNCIL

Our group of women have sponsored Chanukah get togethers, a Holocaust Remembrance Day activity with survivor testimony and other activities in the past few years. This year we invite members of our community to share in creating new experiences as the role of the woman in our shul is recognized. We hope to develop a study group to explore questions and issues that concern us. For example, on Yom Kippur we read about the 10 martyrs, but did you know they were from different periods of history? Why are they mentioned together? Also, many of us are concerned about proper nutrition and issues of women’s health. Perhaps a seminar on this topic? Our first activity will focus on the joyous holiday of Chanukah. We are looking to expand our membership and invite all women to join us. We are planning to meet in the Shul office one evening in November and hope you will join us. It’s a great opportunity to make new friends and take an active role in our shul. Each one of us brings a different skill set to the table. We really can accomplish great things if we come together as a group. Please contact the office and leave your name and phone number and I’ll contact you. My mother was an active member of the YIBE sisterhood and I hope to continue the wonderful work and history of our Shul women. We need your support and participation to make this a success. Please join us. -Renée Minkowitz, Chair

MATIS & RENAE ABRAHAM

In honor of Rabbi & Rebbetzin Snow It’s been many years since you were the collegiate director at the Young Israel of Boro Park yet my family and I are still under your influence. Your Gemara class – which started out in Rabbi Schwartz’s study, graduated to one of the classrooms and blossomed in the main Shul – was the kesher to Torah that sustained me through my collegiate years. Your warmth tied a knot that I know we maintain to this day. It is a well-deserved honor you receive from Young Israel Beth El of Boro Park. You’ve touched many lives and inspired them to grow in many ways in Yiddishkeit! Best wishes for many long years of health and happiness, inspiration and leadership. May your name be a blessing to all Klal Yisroel!

Mazel Tov and Best Wishes to Rabbi & Rebbetzin Snow, true leaders and Ohavei Yisroel. The warmth of the mispallelim at YIBE is a testimony to and a direct reflection of the varemkeit of the Rav and the Rebbetzin. I was greatly comforted in my recent year of aveilus for my mother a”h as I had the special privilege of davening in this wonderful shul, a shul with a long and cherished history in my father’s family, the Greenfields. We were especially moved by the beautiful Divrei Torah that Rabbi Snow delivered at the Siyum Mishnayos at my mother’s Yahrtzeit Seudah. Mazel Tov to Chazzan & Mrs. Miller. Listening to Chazzan Miller daven is extremely inspirational. Mazel Tov to Mark Rottenstein upon receiving this wonderful, well-deserved honor. May you go from strength to strength as you continue to build YIBE for many years to come with your Torah scholarship and your support of learning. With fond appreciation, Eliot & Vicki Jacobowitz
