Rebecca Tessler—Ben Pollack Wedding Of August 18, 2013 Heidi and Carl Tessler have been blessed by Hashem with eight children and four grandchildren. Daughter Rebecca, a recent graduate of Stern College for Women, will stand under the chuppah Sunday with Ben Pollack, son of Chaya and Dean Pollack of Pittsburgh. Rebecca is currently training at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City to become a hospital chaplain and next year, she will be working at The Yeshiva of Flatbush in Brooklyn. In addition, Rebecca is applying to PHD/PsyD programs in clinical psychology. Ben has a degree from the Syms School of Business at Yeshiva University in Management Information Systems. He is pursuing a master’s degree in that field and is currently employed in the computer department of the Kenneth Cole Company. Rebecca has three sisters and four brothers, including Rachel and husband, Rabbi Chaim Zev Grossman and their four children, who are visiting from Israel. Rebecca’s other siblings, Ari, Ben (and his wife Stephanie), Eli, Shira, Chaye and recent Bar Mitzvah, Shmuli, are all present and accounted for. Ben has three brothers all living in Riverdale, New York, They are Noam (and Yehudit and four children), Edo (and Reena and three children) and Coby (and Jessica and two children). We are very pleased to welcome the large number of relatives and friends, in great numbers, from a fifth of our states and Israel, both from the chattan's side, as well as the Kallah’s, who are here for this Simcha. And there are so many Pittsburghers here, that it is doubtful that a minyan can be found today in the city where the Allegheny meets the Monongahela to form the Ohio River. We give a special welcome to our former EDOS member, Michael Katch and Barbara Katch, who are friends of the Pollacks. We are truly delighted that both of Rebecca’s grandmothers, Freida Tessler and Audrey Weiss are in shul with us today. We ask the Pollack Family to extend our sincere greetings to Ben’s grandmothers, Hannah Pollack and Tziporah Tziger who were unable to make the trip to the Mile High City. And we recall, with regret, the four grandfathers who have passed away. May their memories be for a blessing. So, we wish a hearty Mazel Tov to the Chattan and Kallah, their parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, nephews, nieces, cousins and their many friends. May Hashem bless this young couple with good health, happiness, much naches, parnasa and hatzlacha rabba. Jack Greenwald.

  • Yom Kippur Chavurah Service September 23, 2015 Written by Abigail Backer
    Yom Kippur Chavurah Service September 23, 2015 Written by Abigail Backer Characters: Truth - Marci Justice - Bekki Peace - Kathy Judge/Rabbi - Rabbi London Narrator/Counsel - Abby Musician/Juke Box - Cantor Friedman Setting: This skit is written to be a ‘trial’ of sorts. Truth, justice, and peace are the ‘defendants’ and there is a judge/rabbi. The trial is mediated by a narrator/counsel who provides context and asks questions to each of the defendants. Rabbi London will sit in chair next to white table. Truth, justice and peace will stand off to the side. Counsel will enter via the ramp. Materials/Props: Gavel Costumes Signs that say “Truth” “Justice” and “Peace” in Hebrew/English ******************************************************************************************************** Musician/Juke Box: All rise for the Honorable Judge Rabbi Andrea London (plays interlude) Judge/Rabbi: Order! I call this Beit Din, this Rabbinic Court, to order!! Today we will be hearing the case of the Jewish People versus Truth, Justice, and Peace. Counsel, please approach the bench and present the defendants and the facts of the case. We don’t have all day! Narrator/Counsel: (enters hurriedly on ramp) Yes, your Honor. Thank you, your Honor. The premise of this case is simple: Rabban Shimon Ben Gamliel said, “The world is sustained by three things, by justice, by truth, and by peace. As it has been stated: Speak every man the truth to his neighbor; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates. (Zechariah 8:16) Your Honor, we live in a litigious society that requires greater distinctions and hierarchy than ever before. The Jewish people are bringing truth, justice and peace before the court to determine which among them is the most essential, the most valuable, the most pure.

  • The Rosh Chodesh Planner Was Designed to Serve As a Resource for Shluchos When Planning Women's Programs. Many Years Ago, When
    בס"ד PREFACE The Rosh Chodesh Planner was designed to serve as a resource for shluchos when planning women’s programs. Many years ago, when one of the first shluchim arrived in Pittsburgh, PA, prepared to combat the assimilation of America through hafotzas hamayonos, one of the directives of the Rebbe to the shlucha was that it did not suffice for her to only become involved in her husband’s endeavors, but that she should become involved in her own areas of activities as well. Throughout the years of his nesiyus, the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Nesi Dorenu, appreciated and valued the influential role the woman plays as the akeres habayis. This is evident in the many sichos which the Rebbe dedicated specifically to Jewish women and girls worldwide. Involved women are catalysts for involved families and involved communities. Shluchos, therefore, have always dedicated themselves towards reaching a broad spectrum of Jewish women from many affiliations, professions and interests. Programs become educational vehicles, provide networking and outreach opportunities for the participants, and draw them closer in their unified quest for a better and more meaningful tomorrow. Many shluchos have incorporated a schedule of gathering on a monthly basis. Brochures are mailed out at the onset of the year containing the year’s schedule at a glance. Any major event(s) are incorporated as well. This system offers the community an organized and well-planned view of the year’s events. It lets them know what to expect and gives them the ability to plan ahead. In the z’chus of all the positive accomplishments that have been and are continuously generated from women’s programs, may we be worthy of the immediate and complete Geulah.

  • Exodus 13:1-20 Chavurah Shalom Sat 10/29/16 When We Come to The
    Exodus 13:1-20 Chavurah Shalom Sat 10/29/16 When we come to the Sanctification of the Firstborn, we are reminded that in keep- ing the Torah, Yeshua's family performed this rite along with the Brit Milah at the appointed times, Luke 2:21-24. We are very carefully and precisely told of the keeping of the very first of the mitzvot concerning a mother giving birth to a male child, including the circumcision of the child at 8 days, the purification rites for a woman who gave birth to a male child, and the redemption of the firstborn son. You will also note the naming of the child at the Brit Milah, in keeping with the modern Jewish practice, as revealed in the Siddur, (The Complete Artscroll Siddur, Sephard Edition), p. 225-229. Genesis 17:11-12; 21:4; Leviticus 12:3; compare Luke 1:57-59. We are told that the naming of sons at the time of circumcision is not attested in Jewish sources until the post-Talmudic period (eighth centu- ry)....The note "to present him" likely refers to the pidyon ha-ben, the redemp- tion of the firstborn (Exodus 13:2, 12, 15; Numbers 18:15-16; Nehemiah 10:35-36); no law prescribes this presentation; presenting children at the Temple is not a recognized custom.--The Jewish Annotated New Testament, p. 100, 102. Our text for this morning begins with the firstborn, then turns aside to the Matzot and the Tefillin, then returns to the firstborn before summing things up to end our parashah.

  • Numbers 6:22-7:89 Chavurah Shalom Satuday 10/28/17 Our Parashah For
    Numbers 6:22-7:89 Chavurah Shalom Satuday 10/28/17 Our Parashah for this week begins with the Aaronic Benediction, the blessing with which the Priests were to bless the people of Israel. This was one of the chief du- ties of the priest, Deuteronomy 10:8; 21:5. We understand that by the time of Yeshua, this would be the normal means of closing out the twice daily sacrifices, any of the major festivals at Temple, and the Saturday services at the Synagogue. From Psalm 118:26, the priests would pronounce a welcome upon the worshipper as he entered into the Temple, and then upon finishing the days services, the priest would then bless with this Aaronic Benediction as they prepared to depart from the Temple. It is believed that this was the blessing pronounced when the Mishkan was set up and become operational, Leviticus 9:22. In some Jewish groups today, only a priest is permitted to speak the Aaronic Bene- diction, and only after the ceremonial hand washing is performed. If there is a Le- vite present, he would assist the priest in the washing, and then the priest would of- ficiate the Benediction. If however, no Levite is present, the priest would wash his own hands, and perform the Benediction. The structure of the blessing is carefully developed: the first line has 3 words, the second line has 5 words, and the last line 7 words, giving a crescendo throughout the blessing. The number of consonants increase as you go from 15 to 20 to 25.

  • The Yomim Nora'im, Days of Awe Or High Holy Days, Are Among
    The Yomim Nora’im, Days of Awe or High Holy Days, are among the most sacred times in the Jewish calendar. The period from Rosh HaShanah through Yom Kippur encompasses a time for reflection and renewal for Jews, both as individuals and as a community. In addition, throughout the world, and especially in American Jewish life, more Jews will attend services during these days than any other time of the year. The High Holy Days fall at a particularly important time for Jewish students on college campuses. Coming at the beginning of the academic year, they will often be a new student’s first introduction to the Jewish community on campus. Those students who have a positive experience are likely to consider attending another event or service, while those who do not feel comfortable or welcomed will likely not return again. Therefore, it is critical that both services and other events around the holidays be planned with a great deal of care and forethought. This packet is designed as a “how-to” guide for creating a positive, Reform High Holy Day experience on campus. It includes service outlines, program suggestions and materials, and sample text studies for leaders and participants. There are materials and suggestions for campuses of many varieties, including those which have separate Reform services – either led solely or in part by students – and those which only have one “communal” service. The program ideas include ways to help get people involved in the Jewish community during this time period whether or not they stay on campus for the holidays.
