THIS SHABBAT Friday, October 18, 2019 / 20 Tishrei 5780 Saturday, October 19, 2019 / 20 Tishrei 5780 Chol Ha’Moed Sukkot Shabbat, 6:30 pm Chol Ha’Moed Sukkot Shabbat Morning Service Leader: CRRI Ben Dyme Liberal Minyan, 10 am Ba’al Tefillah: Larry Kay Ba'al Tefilllah: Cantorial Intern David Fair Pianist and Music Director: Joyce Rosenzweig D'var Torah: David Feinberg Drashah: Rabbi Reuven Greenvald Rabbi Reuven Greenvald is currently Director of Israel Engagement at the Union for Reform . He has led efforts to promote deeper understanding of Jewish peoplehood at the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion and the Jewish Theological Seminary, where he was Director of Israel Engagement (2015-2016); the Jewish Agency for Israel, where he was Director of Strategic Outreach in North America (2012-2015); and at Makom, as Director of North American Community Initiatives (2007-2012). Previously, he was head of school at the Kehillah Jewish High School and upper school principal at the Charles E. Smith Jewish Day School. He spent two years as a Jerusalem Fellow at the Mandel Leadership Institute, when the idea to work in Israel engagement first took root. Composer Feature Eric Mandell (1903-1988) was born in Westphalia, Germany and worked as Cantor and Music Director of the Synagogue in Bochum, where he was the last cantor to serve the community before the Holocaust. After emigrating to the United States in 1941, he served as Music Director of Har Zion Temple in Philadelphia until 1966. In 1942, he established the music department at Gratz College. In 1966, Mr. Mandell received the Kavod Award from the Cantors Assembly “in recognition of a lifetime devoted to the music of the synagogue as composer, conductor, and musicologist, in which he has generously enriched the musical treasure of our people.”

Turn! Turn! Turn! Words adapted from the Book of Ecclesiastes (Kohelet); Music: Pete Seeger To everything (Turn, Turn, Turn) There is a season (Turn, Turn, Turn) And a time to every purpose, under Heaven

A time to be born, a time to die A time to plant, a time to reap A time to kill, a time to heal A time to laugh, a time to weep

(To everything…)

A time to build up, a time to break down A time to dance, a time to mourn A time to cast away stones, a time to gather stones together

(To everything…)

A time of love, a time of hate A time of war, a time of peace A time you may embrace, a time to refrain from embracing

(To everything…)

A time to gain, a time to lose A time to rend, a time to sew A time for love, a time for hate A time for peace, I swear it's not too late

Bail is submitted on behalf of a detainee, who is then released to pursue their legal case while living in their community instead of behind bars. Contribute to the new CBST Bail Bond Fund, with all proceeds supporting New Sanctuary Coalition's "Life Bond Fund," which has already helped free 25 immigrants from detention.

Please make your fully tax deductible contribution by check (with memo: CBST Bail Bond Fund), or give online at bit.ly/CBSTBailFund.
