In our corpus we have texts such as Tanakh, Midrash, Talmud and Shulchan Aruch. Incredible minds like Rashi, Rarnbarn, Ibn Ezra and Nachmanides, beautiful and intricate languages such as Hebrew, Ladino and Yiddish, titanic moments like revelation at Sinai, the reigns of David and Solomon and the return from the exile.
However, despite this, I could not find a witty quote or a piece of insight from our sages that can properly convey my thoughts.
As I write this column, the Congregation has just finished an important rite of spring, the congregational annual meeting. Congratulations to all the board and I hope that UHC members will feel free to contact any of us with your ideas and concerns.
Sadly, we also say goodbye to our student rabbi, Aaron Rozovsky. We wish him well as he finishes up his fifth year of studies.
United Hebrew Congregation held its annual meeting on Sunday, May 21, 2017. There, the congregation elected a board of trustees and officers of board.
Officers include President Betsy Frank, VP/Secretary Terry Fear and Treasurer Bruce Black. Six board members will serve as well.
United Hebrew Congregation conducts services every Friday, with Temple members officiating most evenings when a student rabbi is not present.
On May 12, five ladies who comprised the Temple’s 2016 B’nai Mitzvah class took that role, as Karen Harris, Debra Israel, Patty Lewis, Wilma Turetzky and Sara Wormser-Waltermire delivered service, Torah portion and sermon, as well as an expansive oneg Shabbat.
