President's Message
30 April 2021
Dear members,
In November of 2020, the Board of Tiferes Israel Synagogue appointed a new Community Engagement Committee led by Victoria Volkanova, to explore the ways to enrich cultural and social aspects of the life of our Greater Moncton Jewish community and to attract more Jewish families living in the area.
It is important to realize that the number of members of the synagogue is declining. This has an impact on our activities as it takes people and financial resources to run them.
We would like to hear what YOU have to say about the services and activities offered at our Synagogue. To do that, weÕve prepared a short survey that we are inviting you and, ideally, every member of your household over 15 years of age, to complete.
- We now have in place a written Covid-19 Plan, as required by the provincial government. Thanks to Carole and Jennifer for drafting it. Thank you also to Dr. Manny who has done work on interpreting government regulations and then advising Saturday shul attendees exactly what and what cannot be done.
- We are changing banks, for our main account, and will now be dealing with The Bank of Nova Scotia on Mountain Road. We already had our Perpetual Care and Mikvah accounts there so it makes sense to have all of our business there.
- I am attempting to set-up committees, which we have always had. The ones I see as essential are Finance, Repairs and Maintenance, Community Engagement and Sick and Visiting. If you have any suggestions for additional ones, please let me know. And, if you are interested in serving on any of these committees, give me a shout.
Here is the link to the survey: https://forms.gle/RqCvmxJHvK1YFL9UA
The survey will run from Friday April 30th to Friday May 14th, 2021.
Those congregants who do not use computers will be contacted by phone to complete the survey. Please let us know if you would like to fill out the survey either by phone or in print, we will happily accommodate your request.
Your views, concerns, and suggestions are extremely valuable! Based on the information gathered, the Committee will prepare a report with recommendations, to be submitted to the Board for implementation.
THANK YOU in advance for your participation and contribution to the future and well-being of our congregation.
May this Passover bring you peace, happiness, love and every blessing from above, including getting vaccinated.
Irwin E. Lampert
(506) 377-4994.

Parshah Vayikra: This week's torah reading, Vayikra, begins the third book of the Torah, Leviticus. Last week, we completed the reading of the book of Exodus, which concluded with a description of the construction of the Tabernacle. This week's portion will provide a description of the various sacrifices – animal, fowl, and meal-offerings – offered by the priests in this newly constructed Sanctuary.(from chabad.org)
'Nasi' of the Day
Beginning on Nissan 1, and continuing through Nissan 13, we recite the verses (from Numbers ch. 7) describing the offerings made by the "princes" (nesi'im) of the 12 tribes of Israel (see "Mishkan inaugurated").
Following the verses of the day's "Nasi," we recite a short prayer in which we say, "...if I, Your servant, am from the tribe of ___ whose section of the Nasi I have read today in Your Torah, may all the holy sparks and holy illuminations that are included within the holiness of this tribe shine upon me, to grant me understanding and intelligence in Your Torah and my awe of You, to do Your will all the days of my life...." (from chabad.org)
Chol Hamoed
Of the eight days of Passover, the first two and the last two are "yom tov" (festival days). The middle four days are called chol hamoed--"weekdays of the festival," also called "the intermediate days." (In Israel, where Passover is observed for seven days, the first and last days are yom tov, and the middle five days are chol hamoed).
The yom tov days are days of rest, during which all creative work is forbidden, as it is on the Shabbat, with the exception of certain types of work associated with food preparation (e.g., cooking and "carrying"). On chol hamoed the prohibition of work is less stringent--work whose avoidance would result in "significant loss" is permitted (except when chol hamoed is also Shabbat, when all work is forbidden).
The "Yaale V'yavo" prayer is included in all prayers and Grace After Meals. Hallel (partial) and Musaf are recited following the Shacharit (morning) prayers. It is the Chabad custom not to put on tefillin during the "intermediate days". (from chabad.org)
10 Days of Repentance; Shabbat Shuvah
The 10-day period beginning on Rosh Hashanah and ending on Yom Kippur is known as the "Ten Days of Repentance"; this is the period, say the sages, of which the prophet speaks when he proclaims (Isaiah 55:6) "Seek G-d when He is to be found; call on Him when He is near." It is thus a most auspicious time to rectify the failings and missed opportunities of the past and positively influence the coming year. Psalm 130 and other special inserts and additions are included in our daily prayers during these days.
The Shabbat between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur is called Shabbat Shuvah, "Shabbat of Return." The name derives from the Haftarah (reading from the prophets) for this Shabbat, which opens with the words (Hosea 14:2), "Return O Israel unto the L-rd your G-d..." According to master Kabbalist Rabbi Isaac Luria ("Ari"), the seven days between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur (which will always include one Sunday, one Monday, etc.) correspond to the seven days of the week. The Sunday between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur includes within itself all Sundays of the year; the Monday embodies all Mondays, and so on. Shabbat Shuvah is thus the archetypal Shabbat -- the juncture in time at which we are empowered to influence every Shabbat of our year. (from chabad.org)

Shavu'ot Services
5 & 6 June 2022Forwarded by F. Weil
President, Tiferes Israel Synagogue
Please keep this schedule handy.
It is for services next Sunday and Monday - Shavuot
Shavuot starts Saturday night late, last Sunday and Monday.
Saturday evening: it is customary for people to stay late and study the Torah the first night of Shavuot.
All who are interested to do that will be able to do it with Rabbi I. Yagod and Rabbi P. Yagod.
Time to gather: not sure yet, maybe 11:00 pm. Will confirm the exact time later.
Sunday Morning: the service will be late to give a break to those who stayed up the whole night. So we will start only at 10:30 am. Please pray Shacharit at home before coming.
We will start Torah reading at 10:30 am and then do Musaf, including Birkat Kohanim.
It is important to listen to the reading of the 10 commandments Sunday morning - so please come at 10:30 am.
It is also important that you listen to the blessing from the Kohanim. So All kohanim are invited to come and bless us. Once you are blessed, you will see that all your little problem will be over. Service will be over at 11:30.
Monday morning: service at 9:00 am
Monday afternoon: big community event organized by Aviya Kohn, please come at 6:00 with your kids. Beautiful Dairy meal.
P.S. (Added by Webmaster):
