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 Behar: This week's Torah reading, Behar, speaks about the Sabbatical and Jubilee years, laws regulating commerce and the redemption of slaves.(from chabad.org)
Counting of the Omer
Omer: The 49-day "Counting of the Omer" retraces our ancestors' seven-week spiritual journey from the Exodus to Sinai. Each evening we recite a special blessing and count the days and weeks that have passed since the Omer; the 50th day is Shavuot, the festival celebrating the Giving of the Torah at Sinai. (from chabad.org)
Ethics of the Fathers
Ethics: During the summer months, from the Shabbat after Passover until the Shabbat before Rosh Hashahah, we study a weekly chapter of the Talmud's Ethics of the Fathers ("Avot") each Shabbat afternoon. (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)
Please visit chabad.org for additional information about this Shabbat.
