From the President’s

Backyard Gazebo How disturbing is another cowardly terrorist attack against innocent Muslim victims as they prayed in their

Mosque. Though this did not happen in America, the horrible act reverberated around the world. It was felt all

over our nation, and in Erie, PA. That there can be so much hate and rage at this time in history, and leaders here

not willing to make a stand against bigots, racists, are perplexing in the least. Rabbi Jonah Dov Pesner, Director of the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism, issued the following

statement on behalf of the Union for Reform Judaism, the Central Conference of American Rabbis, and the wider

Reform Movement institutions: “The massacre in Christchurch pierces our hearts to the very core. To murder

people in the midst of worship is the epitome of evil. As we mourn this senseless loss of life, we hold our Muslim

family in our hearts and commit to stand with them during this painful time – including by visibly and vocally

showing up in solidarity (Please see the URJ Press Release on this matter).

With this being said, I would like to give some uplifting news from my backyard gazebo. I recently had the hon-

or and privilege to speak with Milton Sender. As many of you know, his generosity created the Sender Rabbinic

Fund. Mr. Sender spent his youth in Erie. He attended Temple Anshe Hesed until he left Erie to strike out on his

own. He has many friends who continue to live in the Erie area. Mr. Sender went on to become a major business

success story. Mr. Sender conveyed that what he learned at Temple had shaped him into the man he is today. He

expressed his love for the Temple and congregation. For the past 25 years, I have always heard of the wonderful

things Milton Sender has done for Temple Anshe Hesed. It was through Milton Sender’s philanthropy that we

have The Sender Rabbinic Fund. This trust is set up to use the funds to pay for our Rabbinic leader. Although

Milton Sender may not physically be here, his generosity to this congregation continues.

Although he is not here, we want him to know how much we appreciate all he has done. It is hoped Mr. Sender

will make a visit to our congregation in the future.

Get ready, set, go. We have so much going on at Anshe Hesed. With the Bat Mitzvah of Naomi Warshaw to the

annual Passover Seder, what better time is there to come to Temple then to celebrate the passage of youth to cele-

brating our exodus from Egypt.

Sofo Shel Davar, when all is said and done, we are of one congregation. We continue to strive to make Anshe

Hesed a formidable, loving congregation. We look forward to the future with Rabbi Robert Morais. He has so

much to bring to this congregation. Let us remember L’shem Shamayim, all who labor for the community

should do so for the sake of heaven (Avot 2:2).

B’shalom,

Edie

Care to be a Leader?

In 2019, we have had many congregants “step up to the Bimah” to lead us and we are so grateful for everyone

who has done so. While we have been without a Rabbi for 8 months, the Worship committee has done an

amazing job of continuing to hold services on both Friday nights and on most Saturday mornings. We could not

have done that without all of our amazing volunteers.

We currently are set for Service Leaders in April, but there are opportunities to lead in May and June.

If you think you might be interested, please call or email the Temple office and we can put you on the schedule.

Services can be adapted to YOUR style, English or Hebrew, musical or not, it's your chance to lead.

TRANSITION TEAM UPDATE!

This has been a busy month for the Transition Team as we anticipated Rabbi Morais’s

house-hunting visit to Erie March 23-26th. We wanted to make sure that he and and Korlyn Sharpe felt

welcome, and that we could show them our wonderful TAH-Erie hospitality.

We arranged dinners for them for all three evenings (thank you to all those who hosted!), had a

lovely Welcome Basket of Erie goodies waiting for them at the hotel, and presented them with an ERIE &

TEMPLE RESOURCE DIRECTORY full of all kinds of information. This was lovingly assembled by

The Team, and presented to them to help them get to know what’s available in our city and our temple.

Hopefully, they will find it very helpful as they get to know Erie. There was also a meeting with the B’nai

Mitzvah parents, scheduled at the rabbi’s request.

You will be hearing of more activities in the coming weeks. We will be arranging Dinners and

Meet & Greets with the rabbi this summer so that every congregant will get to spend time with him. If you

are interested in hosting one of these, for any size group you desire, please let me know and The Team

will work with you to make it happen.

Thank you!

March was packed full of Gesher activities. To start off the events Jessica Maldet &

Sharon Warshaw’s students along with Rabbi Stone led a beautiful Shabbat service on March 15th. Thanks

to Bobbi Pollock for rewarding the students with a special personalized treat during the Oneg.

past.

Due to the Passover holiday, our April meeting is cancelled! It has been rescheduled for

May. Please join us on May 14 at 5:30 P.M. at Panera on Peach and 38th Streets.

Our May book is Barren Island by Carol Zoref

Thanks to the many who have given us some great recommendations. We are always ready to

hear others. Please forward them to Janice Wittmershaus at [email protected]

How does one remember a world that literally no longer exists? How do the moral

imperatives to do so correspond to the personal needs that make it possible? Told

from the point-of-view of Marta Eisenstein Lane on the occasion of her 80th

birthday, Barren Island is the story of a factory island in New York's Jamaica Bay,

where the city's dead horses and other large animals were rendered into glue and

fertilizer from the mid-19th century until the 1930's. The island itself is as central to

the story as the members of the Jewish, Greek, Italian, Irish, and African-American

factory families that inhabit it, including those who live their entire lives steeped in

the smell of burning animal flesh.

The story begins with the arrival of the Eisenstein family, immigrants from Eastern

Europe, and explores how the political and social upheavals of the 1930's affect

them and their neighbors in the years between the stock market crash of October

1929 and the start of World War II ten years later. Labor strife, union riots, the

New Deal, the World's Fair, and the struggle to save European Jews from the

growing threat of Nazi terror inform this novel as much as the explosion of civil

and social liberties between the two World Wars. Barren Island, finally, is a novel

in which the existence of God is argued with a God that may no longer exist or,

perhaps, never did.

Dr. Sherri “Sam” Mason, Sustainability Coordinator at Penn State Behrend, is coming to

Temple Anshe Hesed on Sunday, April 7 at 11:00 am to answer our student's questions about

making our Temple a greener place. Following that, at 11:30, she will be available to further

speak about recycling in our community and answer questions you might have about sustaina-

bility. Dr. Mason is responsible for much of the groundbreaking research identifying contami-

nants known as microplastics in the Great Lakes and raising awareness of their potential impact

on human health and the food chain. Her work has led to state, federal and international policy

changes.

Yom HaShoah Observance

Sunday, May 5, 2019

Jefferson Educational Society

2:00 P.M.—4:00 P.M.

The JCRC is pleased to inform you of the appearance of Holocaust educator and presenter Michael Gans at

our annual Yom HaShoah observance on Sunday, May 5, at the Jefferson Educational Society. Our

program, including our traditional candle-lighting ceremony, is scheduled from 2 to 4 p.m.

Mr. Gans, a child of a Holocaust survivor, believes it incumbent on himself to bear witness for his family

and the millions murdered during the Holocaust, giving voice to their silence and keeping their memories

alive. It thus became his life's mission to combat the spread of antisemitism and to help others who have

been traumatized. To quote from Michael: " .. after years of vowing 'Never Again,' it has become truly

disheartening to have to ask how is it possible that merely 70 years after the Holocaust, the most extreme

example of antisemitism, there is again a rabid, worldwide resurgence of Jew-hatred?"

In the face of growing antisemitism in the U.S. and abroad, highlighted by the horrific massacre in

Pittsburgh, still so fresh in our memory; and in the face of continuous confrontations with Holocaust

deniers, Michael's very timely Erie presentation will focus on "Rewriting Holocaust Memory."

“I believe in Spinoza's God...not in a God who concerns himself with the fate and the doings of mankind.”

-Albert Einstein to Rabbi Herbert Goldstein Well if that’s true Al, it would make for a boring Torah book called Exodus. Whether you read it as literal, allegory, or something in between, Exodus is anything but boring. A rage killing by Moses, an unconsumed burning bush, the cruel and unyielding Pharoah, plagues, a parting sea. Is it any wonder Charlton Heston signed on?

Of all things Exodus, I’ve had a preoccupation with the plagues. Mom would call it one of my “sick fascinations” - legions of frogs, dead livestock, a river of blood, and lest we forget oh, the boils. Utter mayhem. But why those plagues? God could have exploded pyramids, reversed the flow of the Nile, animated hieroglyphics to hunt palace guards (great scene in The Mummy, by the way). Before anyone gets all Talmudic (...but Carly, an Egyptian fertility goddess had the head of a frog and there’s rabbinical commentary on the river of blood symbolizing drowned Israelite infants…) I make no attempt here to debate the meanings of each plague. My question is what plagues would God unleash today in 2019, and against whom? Would they even change that much?

Plagues have a universal ability to cripple: making undrinkable the water necessary for survival, disruption of food sources by pestilence, disease of the body, killing of offspring. I don’t even have to try that hard. Undrinkable, putrid waters in this country and elsewhere? Been to Flint, MI recently? Read about frequent cholera outbreaks in the Caribbean? How about pestilence? Last I read the CDC and the WHO warned of an unabated rise in tick and mosquito populations because of warmer temperatures. Personally, I’ll take frogs over Lyme disease or malaria any day. And my favorite plague of all, measles, which currently infects hundreds throughout the U.S. because we never discovered a vaccine. My bad, I meant skin boils. Got confused there for a second.

What about darkness? Do we suffer the darkness of bigotry and intolerance which blinds worse than a failed power grid? Darkness that targets those as they gather to worship in Christchurch, New Zealand, Pittsburgh, PA, Sutherland Springs, TX, Charleston, SC, or Oak Creek, WI.

No one could argue that what God unleashed last, the death in one night of all Egypt’s first born, carried the harshest and saddest lesson. Offhand I can’t think of a modern comparison (thankfully), but what roiled in Pharaoh until then sounds familiar: disbelief, a cling to the old ways, a need for order...and power?

Fear not, for I refuse to conclude in gloom and despair. Exodus ended with freedom: that joy of knowing that when your eyes open every morning, no one owns you. That you, your thoughts, and your actions can have profound and positive change. That Jews and non-Jews alike have the knowledge to reverse and repair what afflicts us all with the freedom to do so. In a few brief paragraphs I’m unable to solve anything - I couldn’t given the space of a book. But here I refuse to give what I see as the worst plague of all one more victim. The plague of apathy.

I’ll hope that Einstein would agree, literalism aside.

-Carly Williamson

What is a puppy mill?

The first question Naomi gets when she

says she's doing a project for Puppy Mill

Awareness is "What is a puppy mill?"

And therein lies the problem!

A puppy mill is a dog breeding operation

in which the health of the dogs is

disregarded in order to maintain a low

overhead and maximize profits. The dogs

are very often kept in inhumane living

conditions, are over bred, and typically

removed too early from their mothers.

Please join us on May 4th at Erie Day

School to learn about puppy mills and

what you can do about them in our

community.

You are joyfully invited to join us as

BANNER FOR TEMPLE ANSHE HESED!

We've had BIG changes at Temple Anshe Hesed - a new building and a new rabbi! These changes will enable

us to grow in different ways. Discovering what we all truly care about will guide us through this new beginning.

As we kick-off this chapter for TAH, the Transition Team is asking for your help in creating a banner to display

at Temple that embodies our true self.

Please provide some descriptive words that tell why Temple Anshe Hesed is important or special to you?

You can either email your response to Jackie Spry at [email protected] or you can fill out a note at

Temple and place it in the comment box. This box will be up through the month of April!

"There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about!"

We, the members of One Table Erie, a group of local citizens committed to building bridges of respect, cooperation and understanding across diverse cultures and faiths, stand proudly with our Muslim sisters and brothers in and around Erie.

We grieve with those in Christchurch, New Zealand, who suffered the loss of loved ones in the horrific and senseless massacre at two mosques there.

We grieve not only lost lives but also the loss of community, the loss of trust, the loss of peace, and the accumulating damage done to the future that we all want for our children.

We grieve, but we will not be paralyzed by our grief for there is truth that needs to be spoken in such times as these. The truth that demonization, hatred, and violence, will not make our world safer or better. The truth that bigotry gone unchallenged will be emboldened and that if we say nothing we may as well join them.

The truth that we are all in this together and that sitting side by side at the table of our common humanity in pursuit of understanding is the only reasonable approach to passing on to future generations a world worth living in.

Today, we want to say to our Muslim friends here and around the world, we grieve with you, we stand with you, and we commit ourselves to working with you to find a way where love and understanding flourish.

Genizah Burial

On March 17, 2019, our congregation held a service to

bury the books and sacred items that we did not bring to

our new Temple. The Worship committee led the service

as we buried our items in a special plot at Temple Anshe

Hesed Cemetery.

We would like to thank the members of the Worship

Committee who led the service and Joe Graziano who

facilitated the move. We also thank Peter Burton and

Burton Funeral Home who organized all of the sacred

items, treated them with deep respect and care and helped

in the burial.

The Cemetery Committee welcomes any congregant who

would like to visit our cemetery on West 26th Street.

Perpetual Memorials:

Names that appear on the yahrzeit list both here and

on our service sheets each week are the names of

those whose family members have purchased a

Perpetual Memorial in memory of their loved ones.

Purchasing a Perpetual Memorial means that your

loved one will have Kaddish said for him or her in

perpetuity, as long as the congregation of Temple

Anshe Hesed exists.

If you are interested in a Perpetual Memorial for
