My Father’s Life and Legacy

This coming March 6, my father would have turned 100.

It is my pleasure to invite you to Shabbat services on Saturday,

March 3, when I will display some of the rare Jewish and

secular books from his collection (and some that I have added

during my own years of bibliophilia.) I will also welcome the

opportunity to tell you a bit about David Hirsch Panitz.

Since he passed away a year and a half before I arrived

in Norfolk, you did not have the opportunity to meet him—except for a few members of

our congregation who remember him from weddings you attended at Adas Israel

congregation in Washington, D.C., where he served as rabbi from 1951-1959.

He was born of immigrant and Zionist parents, in Baltimore. When he was a

little boy, his father, Ezekiel, and mother, Nettie, attempted to make aliyah, so my father

began his education in Eretz Yisrael. They were not able to succeed economically, so

they returned to Baltimore and to the corner grocery store business. Wiped out by the

Great Depression, my father’s father took to kosher poultry slaughtering. Hard work and

long hours were therefore part of my father’s basic upbringing. Every Thursday night, he

and his father would work through the night, “chicken flicking”, preparing the poultry for

the reception that would take place that coming weekend at the Lord Baltimore Hotel.

My Dad’s first academic love was archaeology, and he wanted to go into that

career professionally. His mentor, the great Biblical Archaeologist, William Foxwell

Albright, counseled him that, as a Jew, he would not get the necessary permits from Arab

governments to conduct digs in Arab countries. He turned to the rabbinate as a strong

second choice, and then made his name as one of the leading Conservative rabbis of his

generation.

I’ll also share the story of how he met my mother. His initial attempt to impress

her failed miserably, although obviously, perseverance paid off… They were married in

June, 1942, and enjoyed 48 ½ years of married life together.

He cared about the causes of the day dear to progressive American Jews: racial

integration and social justice in America, Zionism and the welfare of the State of Israel.

He was active in the leadership circles of the Rabbinical Assembly (I wish I could ask

him if he knew our own Rabbi Joseph Goldman?—the chances are high, because there

were not so many rabbis in our movement back then, and they all went to the Concord

Hotel for the annual convention.)

My father represented the forward thinking of his generation, which was not in

the same place as my own. While he expanded pulpit opportunities for women, his

congregation remained non-egalitarian into the 1980’s, whereas my own moved to full

equality of synagogue standing for men and women. I also recall disagreeing with him

about whether a blind student ought to be accepted into rabbinical school. But despite

some areas of seeing things from a different generational perspective, I have always

celebrated the broad areas of shared vision that characterize our world view. I have

inherited many blessings from him, and I plan to voice them with gratitude. I hope you

can join me!

Shalom,

Rabbi Michael Panitz

P.S. If you enjoy this program, then we will do something similar in four years,

for my mother’s 100

th

birth anniversary…

A MESSAGE FROM THE RABBI

Temple Israel Bulletin • Page 3

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

Friendship

I began thinking of what to write for this column while lying awake in bed

on a morning when I couldn't sleep . . . we've all been there. Anyhow, here

goes.

Many of us are on Facebook with so many "friends." I wonder why it is that we spend so much

energy on Facebook, where we're asked to befriend people we hardly know or don't know at all!

This got me thinking about our congregation. We have an opportunity to create real face to face,

not just facebook --- friends. At shul, we see the same people with a fair degree of frequency

who can become real friends leading to a more cohesive congregation. This year our Men's Club

has gotten back on it's feet! We are planning many activities and face to face friendships are

developing!

And so, I want to address myself to those of you who don't often come to Shabbat services and

schmooze at the kiddush luncheon. It's you that I want to draw back into our worship service and

hopefully face to face friendships with your fellow congregants. I look forward to greeting you

at an upcoming Shabbat service.

I am very excited about Temple Israel’s spring fundraiser, Thanks for the Memories, to be held on

Sunday, April 29th. This theme is honoring the founding families and the important role they

played in the genesis of our Temple Israel congregation and this, our building, which is 65 years

old this year. We will also be honoring Rabbi Michael and Shelia Panitz for their 25 years of

service in our Temple family.

The evening will feature nostalgia from the past coupled with delicious food and dancing to the

sounds of one of the areas greatest bands, The Hotcakes. There will be a running slide show of

photos and old documents from the early years and recognition of the founding families and the

Panitz family. There will be something for everyone! The spring fundraiser is a crucial

component of the synagogue’s operating budget. Your support allows us to continue operating

self-sufficiently and debt-free 365 days a year. It’s sure to be a fun evening. Please save the date

and plan to join us!

See you in shul,

Jonathan S. Longman

WHERE DID THE MINYAN MONEY

GO THIS MONTH?

The Minyanaires contributed money

in January to:

TORAH AT THE BEACH

SECOND MONDAY of each month at 7:30 pm.

It still amazes me how nice an evening of Torah at the Beach can be for everyone attending. February’s study session was full

of information from Rabbi Panitz and participation from all there. It’s such a special way of learning!

This month we will meet on Monday, March 12, 2018 at 7:30 PM at the home of Jonathan and Linda Longman. We will

begin a three session topic of Yiddish fiction. Do you have any favorite Jewish authors? I remember going to the library and

taking out books by Sholem Aleichem for my grandfather. Rabbi will talk about fiction from Isaac Bashevis and many others. It

should prove to be an interesting study line. Why don’t you join us!

LEARNING TOGETHER

Every year, our congregation and our programming

partner, Kempsville Conservative Synagogue “K.B.H.”

jointly sponsor an adult education series at KBH (952

Indian Lakes Blvd, Virginia Beach).

This year, our series is entitled, “Torah Teachings

about Men and Women”at 7:30 PM on three successive

Tuesday nights: April 10, April 17 and April 24. The

format is a presentation by our rabbi, followed by a

spirited question and answer session.

April 10—Torah Stories about Men and Women. Why

does the Torah present stories about dysfunctional

marriages? What lessons about the ideal marriage are

implicit in these narratives?

April 17-- Torah Laws about relations between men

and women. What are the commandments regarding this

chapter of human relations? Is the Ultra-Orthodox

approach to modesty the teaching of Torah, or the

influence of the human cultures through which that group

has passed? Conversely, is the informality of current

western relations a challenge to Torah observance? Is

there a kosher but non-fundamentalist sexual ethic?

April 24-- Torah and Sexual Orientation. The Torah

calls certain homosexual acts “an abomination” (and

certain heterosexual acts, as well). Does this relate to

contemporary gender reality, or to the culture of

homosexual rape that characterized much of the ancient

world? How are we to interpret those verses today?

LET’S CONTINUE to HELP PUERTO RICO

Dear Congregation,

We wanted to share this update with you regarding the continuing needs in Puerto Rico.

Your generous donations of batteries, flashlights, tarps and insect repellent helped provide light, shelter, and

relief from mosquitoes which transmit the Zika virus. Because of this outbreak, death came to many of our

fellow Americans, especially in the rural areas in Puerto Rico, and many continue to become ill because of the

lack of sanitary conditions.

By helping to provide these essential items, it is truly a way, I believe, to perform a Mitzvah and Tikum Olam,

by giving and at the same time helping to repair a little part of our world and the lives of those who are so

devastated by the hurricane.

There is still an extreme need for many items, especially light because electricity has not yet been restored in

some of the areas. Even though the need for insect repellent continues, solar lighting is also a much

needed item.

Please plan to come to our March 10 Second Saturday Shabbat and meet the ladies from the Lynnhaven Dive

Center to hear of their personal experiences and sacrifices involved in going to Puerto Rico to personally

deliver all the donated items. Their stories of how they travelled to deliver these items, and where they slept in

the devastated areas are compelling. You will truly feel that your heart-felt donation helped bring some

comfort to those suffering.

Please let's go another round in aiding these ladies to deliver supplies to Puerto Rico. Let's bring the following to

the Temple office by March 9:

• Solar lighting -- (outdoor path lights will charge and can be brought inside at night to provide light)

• Insect Repellent-- still great need

Please feel free to contact us with any questions, and look forward to sharing this inspiring March 10 Second

Saturday Shabbat with you. David and Marilyn Suskind-Pearline

This evening will feature nostalgia from the past coupled with delicious food and dancing to the sounds of one of

the area’s greatest bands, The Hotcakes. There will be a running slide show of photos and old documents from

the early years and recognition of the founding families, as well as, honoring Rabbi Michael and Sheila Panitz

for their 25 years of service in our Temple Israel family.

The event begins at 6:00 pm with wine, beer and hors d’oeuvres on the Evelyn Eisenberg Atrium followed by

dinner in Brody Auditorium. Tickets are just $65 each.

Sponsorships are greatly needed because this is the main fundraising event at Temple Israel, and proceeds help

us cover the costs of operating 365 days a year. Your support allows us to continue operating self-sufficiently

and debt-free.

Sponsor Options:

Trail Blazer $10,000, includes 1 table

MITZVAH OF THE MONTH

MARCH

We are Men, At Your Service!

Our Temple Israel Men’s Club is planning a series of programs for the Spring to highlight its role as a service

organization. Please save the following dates and plan to take part in these programs:

Shabbat, March 3 -- The Men’s Club will hold its annual “Men’s Club Sabbath” and support the congregation’s

public worship. Men will be leading many of the prayers in that morning service, beginning at 9:30 AM, and the

Men’s Club will sponsor the Kiddush luncheon after the conclusion of services at noon.

Shabbat, April 7-- Commemorating the Holocaust. The Men’s Club will again support our Shabbat morning

program of worship, this time in a Sabbath dedicated to memorializing the victims of the Holocaust. We will have

a guest speaker at services to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing us as we attempt to educate the

younger generation about the Holocaust. The Men’s Club will distribute special yellow memorial candles to

everyone who attends the service. These candles are to be lit on Wednesday night, April 11, on Yom Ha-Shoah

itself.

Sunday, May 13—Treat a Mom on Mother’s Day. In our day and age, families often live in separate states, and

some of our mothers have no children living locally. The Men’s Club wants to make sure that none of our

congregation’s moms are without an escort for a celebratory brunch or lunch. CALLING ALL AREA MOMS: If

you do not have family plans for Mother’s Day, and you would like to go out to a restaurant to celebrate you on

Mother’s Day, call the synagogue office, and the Men’s Club will make arrangements to take you out. Our treat!

And we will handle all the transportation.

Sunday, June 10 -- A Family Outing The Men’s Club will assist the younger families of our congregation (and

all those who are young at heart), by underwriting the costs associated with a bicycle tour of the Yorktown

battlefield. We plan to rent a van to transport your bicycle up to the battlefield. Our own member, Nathan Brauner,

who knows that site well, will be our docent for the program. Family togetherness, healthy, fresh air fun, and a

history lesson, all in one!

March 10 Second Saturday Shabbat

meet the ladies from the Lynnhaven Dive Center

Hear of their personal experiences and sacrifices

involved in going to Puerto Rico to personally

deliver all the donated items they have collected the

last few months. Their stories of how they travelled

to deliver these items, and where they slept in the

devastated areas are compelling. You will truly

feel that your heart-felt donation helped bring some

comfort to those suffering.

They are still in need of:

• Solar Lighting

• Insect Repellant

Please let's go another round in aiding these ladies

to deliver supplies to Puerto Rico. Let's bring

these items to the Temple office by March 9.
