הלל אומר: אל תפרוש מן הצבור.Hillel says: Do not separate yourself from the community.

-Pirkei Avot 2:4

These are blessed times indeed!

While we acknowledge and vis-cerally recall the difficulties we all

endured over this past year, we stand now at what we hope is a new beginning. The return to a society that looks a lot like the one we remember from a year-and-a-half ago. Of course, the pandemic has not disappeared from our world, and the virus that causes COVID-19 is still present in our own community. But it is equally true that as the positivity rates continue to decline and we spend more of our time outside, we are discovering opportunities to remove the once necessary barriers which kept us apart for so long.

Here at Beth Sholom we are transitioning more and more of our community activities back to in-person settings. It has felt so won-derful to see so many of you over these past few weeks, whether for Shabbat services, community barbeques or just around the build-ing. It is the shared nature of these moments that serve to infuse the kodesh, holy, in our kehillah kedoshah, or holy community.

Our tradition teaches that we are all created in the image of God and that each of our souls are sparks of the Divine flame. It is pre-cisely through coming together and being physically present with one another that we make God a palpable part of our experiences. This is why the Aron HaKodesh, the Holy Ark, which housed the tablets of the Ten Commandments was topped by two cherubim who faced one another; because the presence of God is most pres-ent in the physical space between two people who are present with and for one another.

Our ability to rejoin in community, in physical proximity to one another, serves to strengthen our spiritual fortitude; not just indi-vidually, but communally as well.

It is in pursuit of cultivating God’s presence in our lives and our community that we must continue to come together and not cut ourselves off. In the words of our great sage Hillel, “Do not sepa-rate yourself from the community.”

It is important to note that there are individuals who continue to have a higher risk and who truly need to remain isolated. Know that we are here for you and are going to continually strive to enable as many in-person forums as possible to be open virtually as well, so that the whole community may participate, whether in person or from home.

It is also true that we are all at different emotional stages regard-ing our communities’ (both Beth Sholom’s and wider Frederick’s)

return to in-person events. My hope is that all those who are not medically required to stay home come to find comfortability returning in person.

I am so grateful that we had the blessings of Zoom and live-streams to remain connected during this pandemic. But being connected and being in community are two different states of being. It is imperative that we reforge the physical bonds of our community. I pray that we will all be able to see each other soon in health and blessing.

Message from the President SHARON EDELSTEIN | [email protected]

Thanks to everyone who joined the annual Congregational meeting last month. I hope next year we will meet in person, but in the meantime I really appreciate so many attendees at yet another Zoom meeting.

As a reminder, Bingo is a mainstay of our synagogue finances, and our abil-ity to sustain Bingo is dependent on the

assistance of volunteers. We will re-open Bingo starting on July 4th at full capacity, with mask wearing required and selling only a minimal assortment of pre-packaged foods and drinks. I hope you will join with your fellow community members to uphold the vibrancy of Torah in Frederick by committing to volunteer just once every other month for our Bingo fundraiser. If we all pitch in, the workload will be manageable for everyone. Volunteers must be 18 or older (16 or older to volunteer in the kitchen). If you haven’t already, please complete the Bingo survey as soon as possible. You can find the link in the Thursday announcements.

Mark your calendar for our annual (except last year) Indepen-dence Day picnic. Since the July 4th holiday falls on Sunday this year, we will celebrate with a picnic in Staley Park on Monday July 5th from 4pm - 7pm. We will provide the main course and we are

planning lots of fun activities for the whole family! Please bring a parve side dish to share. Cost is only $8 per adult and $4 per child. The registration link is on the front page of this Bulletin or through the calendar on our website..

As a reminder, services are back on a normal schedule, Friday eve-nings at 7pm with a light oneg afterwards, and Shabbat morning at 9:30am with kiddush lunch following services. We ask that you please continue to wear your mask to services for the time being.

Although many activities are still by Zoom, we are resuming some in-person activities. Please scroll through the weekly announce-ments every Thursday for details.

Lastly, I want to take this opportunity to say THANK YOU to our many volunteers over the past year, who through the pandemic kept Beth Sholom an active, vibrant community. There are too many names to list (which really shows how deep our commit-ment runs). Thank you as well to our outgoing Board members as we welcome our incoming members!

Memorial Garden for SimonIt’s been two years since our members, Talia and Brent Turner lost their 22-month old son Simon to a sudden illness. And, in his memory the family is working with the City Parks Department and a Baltimore-based architecture firm to lay the

groundwork for a memorial garden in Baker Park that will give the city’s children a place to splash, a favorite activity of Simon’s in one of his favorite places.

The project has been in the works since about six weeks after Simon died, when Brent and Talia Turner first met with the City Parks Department. A relative had started a GoFundMe to support them after their loss, which raised more than $50,000 in donations. The family knew they wanted to put that money back into the com-munity in a way that would keep their son’s spirit close. Frederick’s Ausherman Family Foundation matched the GoFundMe numbers soon after.

Though there’s still a long way to go, the city’s Parks and Recreation Department has been helping the Turners schedule meetings with staff across the city government and in the state health department to finalize a proposal and develop a memorandum of understand-ing. Once the project is officially approved, the Turners plans to start fundraising in earnest.

In the words of Brent Turner, “It has been a great project for us to put some energy into something in Simon’s name, to take some of that energy that we would have [used] taking care of Simon if he were still here,” he said. “It’s been good for us.”

From the Executive Director - Historical Events

ROB ALLEN | [email protected]

The historical events on the dates of our summer-month Shabbatot reflect both human vulnerabilities and many dis-plays of strength, insight and creativity by noted Jewish figures.

On the occasion of her 13th birthday, June 12, 1942, legendary author Anne Frank received a diary from her par-ents Otto and Edith in Amsterdam. The

diary would become famous throughout the world as the “Diary of Anne Frank,” a young girl’s chronicle of 25 months of hiding in the attic of an Amsterdam building by 8 Jewish people who were desperate to escape detection by the Nazi Gestapo during World War II. The Frank family and the four others who occupied the attic with them were unfortunately discovered on August 4, 1944, arrested and transported to concentration camps where Anne even-tually succumbed to typhus. The only Frank family member to survive was Otto, who worked tirelessly to get Anne’s diary published. Throughout the years, it has sold 30-million copies and been printed in 70 languages.

On the Hebrew date of Tammuz 16, 5760 (2020), Connecticut Senator Joseph Lieberman became the first Jew nomi-nated as a Vice-Presidential running mate, as part of the Democratic ticket lead by Presidential candidate Al Gore. As a publicly observant Jew and tireless worker for minority equal rights, Lieber-man’s candidacy did much to enhance the face of Jews in public office and rally

Jewish support for the Democratic ticket. In the November 2000 presidential election, the Gore-Lieberman ticket won the popular vote but lost the Electoral College count, as the Supreme Court stepped in to decide the disputed Florida butterfly ballots. Despite his failed candidacy, the publicity surrounding Lieberman suc-ceeded in communicating Jewish pride to millions of Americans.

On July 3, 1976, Israeli mili-tary forces dispatched a special detail of commandos to Uganda to rescue 106 Israeli passengers and crew members who were taken hostage when an Air France airliner, en route from Tel Aviv to Paris, was hijacked by members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. The plane was diverted to Uganda, where the hijackers eventually released 148 non-Israeli passengers, who were imme-

diately flown to Paris. After sitting on the tarmac of the Entebbe airport for a week, the raid to free the remaining hostages was launched by Israel. It took only 90 minutes to successfully com-plete. Of the 106 hostages, 102 were safely rescued, 3 were killed in the raid and one was killed later in a Ugandan hospital. The only Israeli solider casualty was Yonatan Netanyahu, brother of Israel’s current Prime Minister, Benjamim Netanyahu.

On this 8th day of Av 2448 (1313 B.C.E.), the meraglim (spies), whom Moses had dispatched 40 days earlier to scout out the Promised Land, returned to Israel’s encamp-ment in the desert, bearing a huge cluster of grapes and

other lush fruits. The spies, who included Caleb and Joshua, praised what they saw as the fertility of the land, but brought back tales of mighty giant warriers dwelling there, and declared that the land was unconquerable. The people of Israel were not convinced, and G-d himself became angry that his direction to enter the land of Israel was being challenged and he threatened to destroy the Jew-ish people. At Moses’ convincing, G-d spared the Jewish nation, but remanded them to wander 40 years (one year for each day of the spies’ journey) in the desert before they could enter Israel.

Movie goers on July 31, 1928 were treated to the sound of the MGM trademark Leo the Lion’s very first roar when he introduced the studio’s first movie with a prerecorded soundtrack, “White Shadows in the South Seas.” MGM was formed in 1924 when Jewish entertainment entrepreneur Marcus Loew gained control of Metro Pictures, Goldwyn Pictures, founded by Jews Samuel Goldfish and Jewish brothers Edgar and Archibald Selwyn, and the movie studios of Louis B. Mayer, who was also Jewish. Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer Studios (MGM) grew to become one of the top five film studios in Hollywood, producing numerous big musicals, launching the movie careers of many legendary Hollywood stars and winning many Oscars. The company has undergone many changes of ownership and mergers over the years. Today, MGM produces feature films and television series, purchases films for distribution and distributes its own pictures. In films, the com-pany produces the Rocky and Creed franchises, and the James Bond franchise. Recent productions of MGM Television include The Handmaid’s Tale.

Upcoming Programs

NEOT KEDUMIM PARK—A VIRTUAL VISITSUNDAY JUNE 6 AT 1:00 P.M.Zoom Meeting ID: 863 9051 8901

Passcode: 475236Live from Israel, please join park guide Elly Waller for a special presentation. From the park’s website: Neot Kedumim, the Biblical Landscape Reserve in Israel, is located halfway between Jerusa-lem and Tel Aviv. This unique re-creation of the physical setting of the Bible in all its depth and detail allows visitors to see life as it was lived by our ancestors 3,000 years ago. More than a “garden” showing various plants, Neot Kedumim embodies the panorama and power of the landscapes which shaped the values of the Bible and provided the rich vocabulary for expressing those values. A non-profit organization in Israel, Neot Kedumim has received international recognition as a model of restoration ecology—the reclamation of ravaged landscapes.

HIGHLIGHTS AND OBSERVATIONS FROM THE 2021 MARYLAND GENERAL

ASSEMBLY LEGISLATIVE SESSIONMONDAY, JUNE 7 AT 7:30 P.M.Zoom Meeting ID: 848 8968 6842

Passcode: 507600The event will feature Karen Lewis Young, Delegate for District 3A, Freder-ick County.

Delegate Lewis Young will review some highlights from the past legislative ses-sion. She will also share a few personal observations she made as a Jewish mem-ber of the assembly. 

This presentation will be via Zoom.

Tzedek Committee ActivitiesWith the resumption of normal congregational life, we are able to resume a number of Tzedek Committee activities that were not possible during the pandemic. All congregants are welcome to join the committee and the projects the congregation supports. You don’t have to be a committee member to make suggestions for projects or activities. 

During the week of July 31-August 6, the Beth Sholom Congre-gation will once again host the Religious Coalition’s Emergency Family Homeless Shelter. All of the shelter guests are parents and their children. A maximum of fifteen guests can be served by the emergency shelter. All shelter guests’ temperatures are taken before they enter the shelter and guests are tested for COVID-19 on a weekly basis. An employee of the Religious Coalition is always present while guests are in the building. All Religious Coalition employees have been vaccinated against the COVID-19 virus. The Religious Coalition is currently rehabilitating a build-ing on Hayward Avenue that will serve as a permanent facility to temporarily shelter homeless families. The Religious Coalition projects that the new location will be ready for occupancy in Feb-ruary, 2022. This will hopefully be the last time that Beth Sholom will serve as an emergency shelter. Please volunteer to welcome, support and interact with the guests during a time of crisis in their lives. A volunteer’s primary responsibility is to make the guests feel welcome and respected during a very difficult time. First time volunteers are required to submit an application for a criminal background check conducted by the Religious Coalition and to attend an orientation session at the synagogue. Recognizing that many people may still be wary of coming into contact with strang-ers, we will, at a minimum, need volunteers to help the Religious Coalition staff move cots and mattresses in and out of the build-ing on 7/31/21 and on 8/6/21 and to welcome and ensure that the guests are able to enter the building at 6:00 pm during the week. A volunteer application and background check is not needed for anyone who only helps with the move in/out process. Donations of healthy kosher snacks that do not require refrigeration, water, children’s books, magazines, art supplies for children and chil-dren’s games are also needed. Many potential volunteers may still be uncomfortable with having contact with the public and we can-not determine the guests’ vaccination status.

Many congregants have continued to make donations to the Fred-erick Food Bank (14 East All Saints Street) during the pandemic. A collection box for non-perishable food is outside the synagogue office.

We plan to resume other activities including the Alzheimers’ Walk in October, serving dinner at the Frederick Soup Kitchen, working with the Frederick Department of Social Services and Children of Incarcerated Parents Partnership (COIPP).

Please contact Stan Binder for information about or suggestions for the Tzedek Committee ([email protected] 703-609-7011).

Mazel tov! We made it to the end of the Religious School year! We wanted to mark the end of this year’s learning with an in-person BBQ to celebrate all of the hard work on behalf of the teach-ers and students who persevered throughout this whole year to make learning Hebrew and staying connected Jewishly a priority. Kol Hakavod (way to go!) to all of you who put in the time and energy to be present virtually with us this whole year. We all had to navigate these new waters we’ve been treading, and it seems that we’ve been able to do so successfully. Our goal is always to make sure that the learning environment is a productive one, and to maintain flexibility when the need requires it. We’re so proud of all of the learning that took place this year and look forward to a renewed sense of community and connection in the coming year as we prepare to open in-person, with the Wednesday component remaining virtual.

We appreciate and commend all of our teachers this year, Natalie Eyler, Leah Grasso, Sheri Levine, Forrest Popkin and Andy Rosenfeld, for taking care of their students this year—we see how hard you’ve worked and we want to give you a special Yasher Koach! Thank you all so much for all that you do. Have a wonderful summer everyone! We’ll see you all (God-will-ing) in the fall. B’hatzlacha and enjoy the sun!

Religious School RABBI JORDAN AND CANTOR SHULIE HERSH | [email protected]

WE WANT TO KNOW…Are you under the weather? Do you know someone who is? Please let us know. We want to reach out! If a member of our community is sick or in need of a call or visit, please call Rob or Katelyn in the office at 301-663-3437 or email us at [email protected]. We need their names in order to say a Mi Sheberach (prayer for all those in need of healing) from the bima on Shabbat. If you know their and their mothers’ Hebrew names, please give us this informa-tion also. Please help to keep us informed because we care about you.

Rosh Chodesh GroupThe first day of each Jewish month, the celebration

of the new moon, is a day historically related to women’s renewal  and celebration. As the moon prepares

to make its reemergence into the night sky, we prepare ourselves to be spiritu-

ally attuned and awakened to its light and its power. We give

ourselves the gift of tuning into our own power as we appreciate and celebrate the moments of each month that are significant and meaningful to us as Jewish women.

Join us every month as we gather for learn-ing, ritual, and spiritual exploration to celebrate Rosh Chodesh with Cantor Shulie!

The gathering for June will take place at 3:30 pm, Sunday, June 13, and for July at 3:30 pm, Sunday, July 11 on Zoom.
