April 2019 VOLUME XXXII ISSUE 4
Passover: Freedom from Fear
It may be the oldest joke in the book: “Every Jewish holiday is the same…. They tried to kill us, we won, let’s eat.” How true the sentiment is as we approach this year’s Passover Seder with in-creasing concerns over anti-semitism both here and abroad.
More and more it feels as if “they” are trying to get us. We would do well to recall that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., who was assassinated 51 years ago this month, once wrote a brilliant sermon entitled “Antidotes for Fear” describ-ing two types of fear: “Sigmund Freud spoke of a person who was quite properly afraid of snakes in the heart of an African jungle and of another person who neurotically feared that snakes were under the carpet in his city apart-ment. Psychologists say that normal children are born with only two fears—the fear of fall-ing and the fear of loud noises—and that all others are environmentally acquired. Most of these acquired fears are snakes under the car-pet…. Normal fear protects us; abnormal fear paralyzes us. Normal fear motivates us to im-prove our individual and collective welfare; abnormal fear constantly poisons and distorts our inner lives. Our problem is not to be rid of fear but rather to harness and master it.” And that is what Martin Luther King, Jr. did. He built what he called “dikes of courage to hold back fear.” He was unafraid and became the Moses of his people. In his final speech in
Memphis, on April 4, 1968, the night before he was shot, Martin Luther King, Jr., stat-ed: “You know, whenever Pharaoh wanted to prolong the period of slavery in Egypt, he had a favorite formula of doing it. What was that? He kept the slaves fighting among them-selves. But whenever the slaves get together, something happens in Pharaoh’s court, and he cannot hold the slaves in slavery. When the slaves get together, that’s the beginning of get-ting out of slavery. Now let us maintain uni-ty.” What an empowering lesson for us as divi-siveness, senseless hatred and fear abound. Even if our enemies are many and our fears are great, if we remain unified as a people and steadfast in our commitment to fight for freedom and peace then indeed “we shall overcome.” Let this year’s Festival of Freedom become a turning point when we can flee the narrow straits which terrify us and begin our journey to the Promised Land; a na-tion wherein we and all peoples will yet be-come “free at last.”
Shalom,

We Must Remeber their Names
The Israeli poet “Zelda” Schneur-son Mishkovsky wrote the follow-ing well-known poem:
Each of us has a name given by
God and given by our parents
Each of us has a name
given by our stature and our smile and given by what we wear
Each of us has a name given by the mountains and given by our walls
Each of us has a name
given by the stars and given by our neighbors
Each of us has a name
given by our sins and given by our longing
Each of us has a name given by our enemies and given by our love
Each of us has a name
given by our celebrations and given by our work
Each of us has a name given by the seasons
and given by our blindness
Each of us has a name given by the sea
and given by our death.
It is important that we take time to know the names of those whose lives are taken from us—the names of the people who are not amongst us because of a world so often lack-ing in justice. It, of course, isn’t enough to “just” remember a name. Our consciences demand that we do more. Nevertheless, as our Kaddish prayer evidences, remembering the name of the deceased is an im-portant part of what we, as Jews, do to mourn the dead. I remain as devastated as ever as I grapple with the fact that dozens of innocent men, women, and children were needlessly slaughtered last month as they prayed in a mosque. Despite this massacre having hap-pened on the other side of the world, there is a real pain that we all experience in our own homes here in Dayton. My heart still hurts, and I am still at a loss about how to respond. I know, though, that at the least, we must remember. I encourage you to take a moment to do precisely that-to read one by one through the names of the peo-ple our world so recently lost for no reason other than the fact that hate, and racism, and bigotry still exist. There is something both powerful and intimate in uttering a person’s name; I encourage you to breathe new life into these human memo-ries, vocalizing their names in a pri-vate moment.

Youth News
Purim Carnival Thanks to all of the Beth Or Temple Youth (BOTY) who spent the night and set up a won-derful Purim Carnival for our youngest members on Sunday, March 17. Everyone had a great time.
Passover Care Packages Offered Temple Beth Or would like to send our college-age kids a Passover Care Package, so that they can have a Passover nosh while away from home during the holiday. If you have a college-age kid who is away from home, please email the office at [email protected] or call the Temple of-fice at 937-435-3400 and give us their address. We will make sure that they don’t go hungry.
Congratulations to Our New B'not Mitzvah: Temple Beth Or is proud to welcome Alexis, Brianna, and Caitlyn Becker as new adults in our community. Their b'not mitzvah ceremony, on March 16th, was a truly exciting simchah, and they excelled in all aspects of leading their service. Please join us in congratulating these young women on their good work!
Send in Your Grads It’s a busy time for our youth as they enter the
homestretch of the school year! Temple Beth Or would like to congratulate
members who have a graduate this year. All graduates will be recognized in the June issue of The Light.
Please send information and a photo of your graduate to [email protected] by May 18. Include the next step they plan. College graduates and non-traditional students are wel-come too!
Our Makor year is nearly at its end: There are only a handful of days left in our Makor year: April 7th, 14th, 28th, and May 5th and 12th. As we begin the spring and enjoy some nicer weather, make sure to bring your kids in so they can wrap up another year of learning on a high note!
Register Your Children for Makor Early, Get a Price Break: The tuition for Makor will be increasing a modest amount next year ($50 per child), to help us keep our books bal-anced. However, there's good news: If you register your children for Makor by the final day of Makor, May 12th, you can lock in last year's rates! Registration details will be coming out shortly, so keep a lookout.

Spring is the time of awak-ening. The time to realize that we have been stuck inside our houses too long because of an artic vortex or wintery mix. Spring lets us release that cooped up feeling that we want to get out and do some-thing. Temple Beth Or is the place for you to do that “something.” Come on in to participate in a Friday night service. Venture out to join a committee and share your pas-sion or leadership. Throw the yard tools in the car and drive on over to help with the beau-tification of the Temple grounds. Call up the Rabbis and ask, “What something do you need me to get out and do?” Spring is a great time to get involved with Temple Beth Or. There is so much that can be done. You may have an idea of what you think needs to be done, so take that initia-tive and get out and do it. Temple needs the involvement and passion of members like you. So, when you get that feel-ing that you need to get out and do something, think of Temple Beth Or and volunteer to do a “something.” It is that feeling and then taking the ac-tion to do it that makes Tem-ple Beth Or such a special place Today . . . and for Gen-erations.
