Fall Breakfast Meeting
  Next Sunday, October 13
9:30-10:30 am
Agenda:
  1. First Responders Thanksgiving Lunch
  2. Dec. 25 Pacific House Meal
  3. A big surprise!  

 One of the main themes in this week's Parsha is leadership. On the one hand, Noach merits to be saved from the flood due to his righteousness. On the other hand, in contrast to Avraham, he isolates himself from the world and does not possess the vision and will to save even more people beyond his family. Nations rise and fall based on the quality of leadership. The Jewish people follow the Abrahamic model staying rooted in tradition yet seeking to build and broaden community.
   Our congregation is a member of the Orthodox Union, the national body of synagogues. We are privileged this Shabbat to host the Chairman of the Board, Steve Savitsky. I encourage everyone to hear him over the course of Shabbat. We are looking forward to Steve's visit to our community! His wisdom, vision and engaging personality will spark ideas and renewed appreciation for our role as Orthodox Jews in the modern world.

   I had the pleasure of hosting Steve and his wife Genie as a Rabbi in West Hartford and Denver and know that our congregation will be motivated and moved not only by his words but model for menschlechkeit and leadership  within the national Jewish community.
Wishing you and your families a Shabbat Shalom,      

Rabbi Daniel Cohen

In our first year of existence, we have made great strides. In addition to creating our mission statement, "To honor the spirit and courage of our parents and those who perished or survived and rebuilt their lives. And to remember them and dedicate in their honor good works and healing deeds to benefit and enlighten future generations so the horrors of the Shoah will never be revisited upon humanity"  we are also exploring and sharing the unique experiences, awareness, bonds, burdens, and  responsibilities that come with being Children of Holocaust survivors.  As we journey into our second year together, we realize even more how much great community depends on great conversation and that we are witnesses in ourselves to something far greater than ourselves.Please come and join us.  For further contact information call: Ann Cohn at 203-762-0058 (home) or 203-984-6667 (cell)
