Bedikat Hametz Thursday, April 21 after sunset Bedikat Hametz (search for leaven) is customarily done on the Night before Passover immediately after sunset. The “Kol Hamira” (“All the Hametz…”) formula for nullifying unseen Hametz is recited at this time; it can be found in the beginning of the Haggadah.

Siyyum Bikhorim The Fast of the First-Born Friday, April 22 at 7:00 a.m. followed by breakfast A first-born (whether of the mother or the father) should fast on the day before Passover, in commemoration of the deliverance from Egypt. It is the custom for synagogues to make siyyum (the public completion of the large section of study) on the morning before Passover. Since the siyyum is followed by a seudat mitzvah, a festive meal that follows the performance of certain Mitzvot, a first born who is present may eat and having eaten need not fast that day.

Biur Hametz Friday, April 22 at 8:30 a.m. sharp Biur (burn) Hametz at Beth Sholom -- and then roast some marshmallows! Beth Sholom’s 8th Annual Hametz Burning is a great way to start the holiday! Join us for a communal Hametz burning, public sale of Hametz, and roasting & eating marshmallows. Bring your Hametz, a stick and Passover songs. Location: Beth Sholom parking lot, weather permitting. Friends and family are welcome! Hametz may not be eaten after three hours (from sunrise) into the day, nor stored away / sold to a non-Jew / burned after four hours (from sunrise) into the day. This year, all Hametz must be eaten by 10:50 a.m. and stored away / sold to a non-Jew / burned by 10:50 a.m. The symbolic “burning of the Hametz” should

The Center for Spiritual Well-being (CSWB), a project of Beth Sholom Congregation, will mark its official launch this March. What, you may ask, is a Center for Spiritual Well-being? And what does such a Center have to do with being Jewish? The Center for Spiritual Well-being is made possible by Beth Sholom Congregation a generous donor to Beth Sholom’s capital campaign 8231 Old York Road who wishes to remain anonymous.

I may even get to perform a bit with members of my family and Mr. Glaser. Sam Glaser’s music is fun for all ages and it will be a pleasure to have him perform here. On the choir side of Beth Sholom, we have our uplifting Chevrei Shir youth choir, whom you may have already heard this past Hanukkah and will be part of the Sam Glaser concert and our Shir Sholom adult choir, whom you can hear monthly in our Friday night service the third week of every month. If you are lucky, we may convince them to sing with Sam Glaser as well. Our Men’s Choir has been meeting and we will be singing together as part of the Men’s Club Shabbat this season. What a joy it is to make music with friends in our community. We are going to be having another musical extravaganza in our Main Sanctuary on May 1st of a very different type.

I would like to tell you about two special musical offerings this spring. On Sunday April 10 we will be fortunate to have Sam Glaser in concert. The following quote summarizes Sam’s talent. “Some consider Sam Glaser to be the hardest working man in Jewish music today. With over 20 albums under his belt and his annual fifty city concert tour which plays for over 100,000 fans, we think that Sam has earned the title,” Jewish Music Group Online. I anticipate participation in the concert from our children’s choir, the choirs from our Philadelphia Jewish Day Schools, and our own Andrea and Hazzan Jeffrey Weber. The concert is titled “Celebrate Israel“ and a portion of the proceeds will support Magen David Adom, Israel’s ambulance, blood and disaster-relief services. They are Israel’s emergency medical first responders. I sug- gest you go to Sam’s website for more information about him (www.samglaser.com). This concert will appeal to all ages. Please invite your friends and family for a great afternoon.

On May 1st we will have our annual Gala Fundraiser. Many of you remember a sold-out Four Tenors concert in the Main Sanctuary in 1999. Richard Troxell, one of the four, went on to become an international vocal star. Troxell is the consum- mate entertainer. Not only does he sing in leading opera houses around the world, but he has also recorded jazz and Broadway music albums, sings the Star-Spangled Banner on opening day at Camden Yards in Baltimore each year, and is a frequent guest on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. He graduated from AVA and currently resides in Chester County, Pennsylvania, with his wife and two sons. He will bring his latest concert offering to us, Bizet To Broadway, accompanied by one of the finest mezzo-sopranos of our time, Kirstin Chavez. Kirstin has graced the stage of the Metropolitan Opera House and has performed this concert with Richard on numerous occasions. You do not need to be a lover of opera to enjoy this concert. This concert will be

RSVP’s required to Eileen Weingram We work hard at involving our parents and recognize that strong communication [email protected] between home and school is an important aspect in creating a quality early childhood (no charge for this program) program. A variety of ways to stay in touch is offered to our parents, so that all can be included regardless of how we reach them. In addition to daily written reports, phone calls, email and texting, this year we introduced TADPOLES! TADPOLES is a state of the art application which enables teachers to share photos and notes throughout the day with parents. Teachers use the classroom’s iPad to send notes, photos and videos. We strongly believe that the quality of early childhood development is dependent on the connection between parents and their school and are doing all we can do to support this. Fortunately, we have an exceptional group of Preschool parents who make this very easy! They are eager to participate in the meaningful opportunities that Beth Sholom provides. Parents regularly attend Tot Shabbat, “Conversations with the Rabbis,” monthly PTO meetings and many other special events. The more they attend, the more they become involved with our school and with each other. They warmly welcome new members of our community and open their homes to all of us. Our parents are always eager to find more opportunities for our families to connect. It is apparent that the more involved they become the more successful they are in engaging with our school.

Beth Sholom has been an important part of my life since I was a young girl. It is where I celebrated my Bat Mitzvah, where I was Confirmed, where I got married and where our youngest daughter was named. Now, it is where I work. I help coordinate the Center for Spiritual Well-being. This new entity focuses on healing, spirituality, wellness, mindful- ness and meditation. It offers programs such as Healing Ser- vices, a High Holiday spiritual alternative service, Mindful Yoga, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, Alone No More: Nar-Anon, Lunch & Learns and Mental Health First Aid. Our goal is to provide programs for you to feel comfortable, con- nected to others and -- perhaps most important -- connected to yourself. We have been particularly hard at work on our Mental Let’s Talk about Guns Health Seminar, “Normative Crises: Growing through Life’s The Bernard Wolfman Civil Discourse Forum Changes and Challenges.” This will take place in just a few Takes on Its Most Controversial Conversation weeks on Sunday, March 13th at 9:30 am.

“The dialogue about guns heats up immediately after an incendiary event. At those times, nobody is really hearing each other or exchanging ideas,” says Civil Discourse Proj- ect founder Dina Wolfman Baker. “Gun policy is multi-faceted and complex. It’s a public health issue to some, a constitu- tional rights issue to others, and a criminal justice or mental health issue to still others. To move forward, we must open ourselves up to hearing other points of view about the under- lying issues. Our goal is to encourage people to talk to and hear other individuals, and commit to taking meaningful, con- structive and, I hope, collaborative action in support of their stand on the issue.”

The forum takes place at Beth Sholom each year during Pesah, to symbolize its celebration of freedom of (respectful) speech and activism.

The forum is open to the public and requires pre-registration at www.CivilDiscourseProject.org. If you cannot register online, call the synagogue office at 215.887.1342.
