Message from our President
It has been fewer than 90 days since I’ve had the blessing of taking office as your President on June 1. In between
summer vacations and board meetings, our Clergy, staff, board and many congregants have been hard at work preparing
for our High Holy Days and the year ahead as well as addressing the daily challenges that are ever present.
Staffing
Let me begin by welcoming new staff members as well as congratulating those who have been promoted. First, please
join me in welcoming Juliane McLellan as the Diane Trust Center Early Education Program Administrator. Juliane
earned a BS in Child Development from the University of Maine in Orono and a MS in Early Childhood Education
from Wheelock College in Boston. She has been an independent consultant since 2002 and is currently teaching a
course in Early Education as an adjunct faculty member at Andover College. In addition to her consulting, Juliane was
an accreditation consultant for the National Association of Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies, a health care
teacher, an assessor for the National Association for the Education of Young Children and an Education Specialist for
the Mid-Coast Resource Development Center. As we evaluated ARS and TCEE during our search process, the need to
integrate these two fine schools and consolidate resources became evident and the opportunity to effect change timely. As a result, I am very
happy to report that Shari Churwin’s role as Director of Education has been expanded to include oversight of not only ARS, but the early
education center as well. This fits in beautifully with our short and long range plans and will be a key to our success.
I am also very pleased to congratulate David Brody on officially becoming our Executive Director. David has a law degree from Suffolk
University Law School and recently passed his bar exam. He also has a BA in Political Science from George Washington University with a
minor in Religion. David has been with us for almost two years, most recently as the Acting Director. As reported in our last Tidings, please join
with me in welcoming our new Pararabbinic Fellow, Philip Bressler. Phil has a BA in Jewish, Islamic and Near Eastern Studies from Washington
University in St. Louis. As a Fellow, Phil will be providing administrative support to our clergy, teaching, leading services and organizing
additional programs for TOS.
Programming
We have planned for an exciting year ahead. This year we will be expanding our Shabbat programming on Saturday mornings with Shabbat
B’Yachad. The second Saturday of each month will have a morning of programming for the whole family including: Mindfulness and
Meditation (led by Rabbi Franken and Donna Rubenoff), Torah Study, Youth Education, Family and Traditional Services, with a Community
Kiddush to conclude. On the first Friday of each month, Shabbat Rishon is already attracting great speakers including Susan Helfgott Whitman
who is scheduled for November 5th. And thanks to Phil Bressler and David Brody, our young professionals group, haverim, has grown with
expanded programming. We are also proud to welcome back our now 8 person strong volunteer band who makes our Judaism in Motion
Services so engaging. With Cantor Schloss and David Sparr they do
credit to a long tradition of innovative and stirring musical worship at
Temple Ohabei Shalom.

We are writing you to consider getting involved with our Brotherhood, the Men’s Club at Temple Ohabei Shalom.
Brotherhood has monthly meetings, our guest speakers are outstanding, dinner is always served, and there is time to schmooze. Many members have been involved for years and it
has enriched our lives and our connection to our Temple. Many of us now know people that we did not know before and just as importantly, they know us.
We enjoy our meetings, get to see old friends and meet new ones, and we don’t have to impress anyone with our job titles or business success. We just get to relate to people that
we truly enjoy spending time with. Involvement with our membership, programs, and Tikkun committees will further enrich your experience.
In addition to an increased connection to our Temple, being in the Brotherhood helps serve the greater good of Ohabei Shalom. Our annual Breakfast with the Brothers is a big hit,
and raises funds, most of which we contribute back to the Temple.
Give us a chance this coming year and see if your participation enhances your life as it has ours. Become part of our active Brotherhood and make our programs even better! Our
programs this year include discussions and presentations designed to enrich your lives and stimulate your minds. Some of the topics include 50 Years of the New England Patriots
(bring the kids), Computer Security and Integrity, Men's Health, and The 1st Amendment - What it Really Means.
Attached is the Brotherhood’s Membership & Partnership Form, us well as our 2010 – 2011 Schedule of events. Please consider also contributing to the Ben Adler Memorial
Fund, created to sponsor Health & Well-Being Programs in memory of Ben Adler, like the Annual Blood Drive and Men’s Health programs; as well as making a donation to the
Brotherhood’s Penn Trust, which has supported the Ansin Religious School by providing scholarships, and co-sponsored events and projects that benefit the greater Ohabei Shalom

The Sisterhood of Ohabei Shalom extends all good wishes for a New Year of health and blessing to the entire synagogue community as well as to your extended personal

Before you stop reading this article, please take out your planner and mark Monday, September 13, 7:00 PM, for our annual Welcome Coffee (first night of junior and senior high
school). Our guest speaker will be humorist Carol Bortman, EdD, who will wittily address the topic: Sex and Seniors: Upside and Downside. We look forward to a welcome by the
clergy and President Weintraub. This program is available to all women of Ohabei Shalom. Thanks to Dottie Berman for planning what promises to be a fun and interesting
evening.
Hopefully you have all received our Sisterhood membership mailing that included our brochure and listing of our events for the 2010-2011 shul year. We urge all the women of
TOS to become Sisterhood members, and to join us as we play together and work together in support of our synagogue. You are invited to attend any of our events as guests
before joining! Thanks to all those who helped to get out the mailing.
The leaders of Sisterhood and Brotherhood will be honored on Wednesday, September 22, at the Erev Sukkot service and we hope that many of you will be able to attend.
For your advance planning, we will be participating in Mitzvah Day with the Ansin Religious School on the morning of Sunday , October 24. Our Gift Shop will hold an advance
Chanukah sale with a good selection of merchandise at reduced prices. On October 27 we will have our annual a potluck dinner and movie night with Brotherhood. Sisters will
bring dairy and pareve dishes and the Brothers will provide drinks, dessert and popcorn. The movie will be A Stranger Among Us starring Melanie Griffith as a New York police
officer who solves a crime in the Hasidic Jewish community.
We have a strong and active Sisterhood Leadership Committee that works hard to plan events and lead our activities. Ita N. Wiener will now be representing us on the Board of
Trustees. We have a number of active small groups and welcome suggestions for others. Please contact Amy Hozid 617-566-1939 or ahozid@gmail.com about the Book Group.
Also, watch Temple E-mail for book group dates and books. Rhonda Solomon is coordinating the Sisterhood Readers for the preschool. If you want to read to the children, please
contact Rhonda 617-773-3549 or seabirdshrs@verizon.net. Ita N. Wiener will be leading a series of Jewish Studies seminars on six Thursdays at TOS beginning on October 7.
We are also hoping to organize a number of "field trips" to places of interest in and around Boston.
One of these trips will be attendance at Limmud Boston, a celebration of Jewish culture and identity that will include Havdalah, study sessions, entertainment, dance, exhibitor sales
and more on Saturday evening October 30 and Sunday October 31. The event will take place at Temple Israel and will cost $36 per participant. Please visit
www.LimmudBoston.org for more information. I will post further notices in the November/December Tidings and in the TOS e-mail bulletin.
