Listening to the voices of our Amer-ican tradition, one might imagine that freedom is the ultimate value. Having just experienced the Pesach s’darim, one might be forgiven for thinking the same is true of our Jew-ish tradition. The truth, however, is that the wisdom of our ancient reli-gion does not see freedom as a value

in and of itself. Freedom is only valued as much as we utilize it for a higher purpose. It is a means to an end, not an end itself.

One way we see this is through the fact that Pesach, the Festival of Freedom, is not a holiday which exists in isolation. During the sec-ond seder, we begin the practice of S’firat Ha’Omer, or the counting of the Omer. From the second night of Pesach on, we count each night and each week leading up to the fiftieth day, which is the Festival of Shavuot. Shavuot is the day on which we received Torah at Mt. Sinai. In other words, freedom is only valuable so long as it leads us towards a positive and purposeful utilization of that free-dom. From the Jewish perspective, the question isn’t about what we are free from; it is about what we are free to.

Mitzrayim, the Hebrew name for Egypt, means places of constric-tion. It is not just the name of a physical place, but also a spiritual place that we all inhabit. A place from which we are all in need of redemption. Our ancient ancestors were constricted by slavery, unable to fully enter into relationship with God while living and thriving in our own land. That is why we connect the redemption from Egypt with the freedom to accept Torah via the counting of the Omer.

Each of us has our own Mitzrayim. What is it that is constrict-ing you in your life? Perhaps it is jealousy, or anger, or shame or the time constraints of work, or the dissatisfaction with what you have. Whatever your Mitzrayim, can you imagine what your life would be like if those chains were thrown off? What would be dif-ferent about your life if you were not enslaved to your Mitzrayim?

The practice of counting the Omer each night, a practice we are currently in the midst of, can offer us the opportunity to imagine our life, not as it is, but as it could be. During these weeks leading up to Shavuot, ask yourself what is holding you back from turning this vision into reality? What can you do to make this transfor-mation happen? What can you do to truly free yourself from the constrictions of Mitzrayim this year?

This year we are slaves (to our own places of constriction). Next year we will be free in the Land of Israel (a place where we are free to live the fullest expressions of our own selves).

Support The Gift Shop

While the gift shop is unable to stay open during the pandemic, you may call the synagogue at 301-663-3437 to schedule an appointment during regular office hours Monday through Friday. You can also shop online at:https://bethsholomgiftshop.com/

As our first year of pandemic comes to an end, I want to thank you all for your patience, the love you’ve shown to Beth Sholom through your generous dona-tions and continued support of our community, and the way our congre-gants have continued to take care of each other though we haven’t been able to get together in person. Unfortunately our financial situation is still in jeopardy.

We are thankful for the donations received to date, and that we have some savings to draw on. While our savings can sustain us through this current year, spending our savings is problematic in the long term, so I urge you to take this opportunity to give gen-erously. You can make a difference for our community while we weather the remaining few months of this storm. As you probably know, for over 20 years bingo has brought in nearly 50% of our revenue, allowing us to keep our dues much lower than comparable synagogues in the area (and elsewhere). Without bingo this year, our income is woefully behind our expenses despite PPP loans and generous congregant donations. Thus, with vaccinations increasing and bingo players chomping at the bit to return, we are planning to restart bingo one night a week later this spring. It will be a different bingo than we’re used to, with fewer games, smaller crowds to allow for distancing, ubiq-uitous mask wearing, and no food or drink allowed indoors. But we need your help! We hope everyone who is able will volunteer just 2 hours a month to help sell cards and tips on the floor, work at the bingo table, help with payouts or other tasks, or become a bingo caller. Please let me or Rob know when we can put you on the schedule, and expect a call from a “friend” one day soon. We have also begun limited indoor services. Watch the weekly emails for updates. Our Reverse Raffle will be held on April 11 — there will be LOTS of winners so please share the link and purchase your own tickets! I hope you will all join us for our community virtual Yom HaShoah commemoration at 2:00 pm Sunday afternoon April 18, with Key-note Speaker Holocaust survivor Herbert Hane, an opening address by Congressman Jamie Raskin and closing remarks by Congressman David Trone. And now for the fun! Mark your calendars for our outdoor “festi-val” which is set for Sunday, May 23 late in the afternoon, our first real social gathering in more than a year - everyone is invited! Look for details soon, but in brief we will have kosher food and will gather safely in the Staley Park Pavilion. We’re looking for sponsors - let me or Rob know if you’d like to sponsor this fun event! I hope you all had a lovely Pesach and are enjoying the spring weather.

Book ClubOur next meeting will be on April 18, at 10:00am.

The book club meeting has been rescheduled to coincide with the syna-gogue’s Holocaust Remembrance Day services.

We will be discussing We Were The Lucky Ones, by Georgia Hunter. The novel is a fictionalized account of the true story of the Kurc family and their experiences during World War II,

beginning in their hometown of Radom, Poland in 1939.

The author is the granddaughter of one of the children in the fam-ily. The book spans eight years following the Kurc family members to several countries and continents, including, Austria, Italy, Argentina, South America, and Siberia as the war continues and finally ends.

The book is a story of survival and family love.

From the Executive Director - April Days of Remembrance

ROB ALLEN | [email protected]

From a Jewish historical standpoint, this is a great time of year about which to write. So many meaningful Holidays, Yom Ha’Shoa (Holocaust Remembrance Day), Yom Ha’Zikaron (Israel Memorial Day) and Yom Ha’Atzmaut (Israel Indepen-dence Day)). Not surprisingly, so many interesting events took place during this season, and our Shabbatot this month are certainly representative of that.

For instance, April 3rd marks the first recorded delivery of matzah to the White House, when, in 1904, a 13-year-old Jewish girl and her mother decided President Theodore Roosevelt should have some, so they personally brought it to him. And, in 1948, on the 5th of Iyar (April 17th this year), in a Tel Aviv ceremony led by David Ben-Gurion, the State of Israel declared its independence from Britain. Then, there is the 12th of Iyar, which this year will be Shabbat, April 24th, commemorating the breaching of the middle wall of Jerusalem by the Romans in the year 70 C.E.

But, I would be totally remiss if I didn’t make a special point of highlighting Shabbat April 10th, because on that date in 1945, the American Third Army, led by General George Patton, arrived at the Buchenwald Nazi concentration in Germany and liberated the prisoners who had survived up to that point. One of the Ameri-can soldiers in that troop was Sergeant David Allen, my father. It remains one of my deepest regrets that this was never a topic of discussion by my dad, and became a secret he took to his grave, never sharing with my brother nor me. My guess is that his obvi-ously horrendous experience at Buchnenwald led to his untimely death at the age of 45, since it was shortly after the liberation that my dad had his first heart attack and received an honorable dis-charge from the Army. It was not until I was well into my forties that the story of my father at Buchenwald was unraveled. My brother, Michael, who was the Director of the Holocaust Awareness Institute at the University of Denver summoned me to his office one afternoon to view the accompanying picture. Information about my father’s experience as a liberator had already been shared with Michael by our aunt in Israel, as well as others in the community who were aware of it. He knew exactly for whom he was looking when this photo was sent to him, and with several identifying features of my father, it was easy to spot him. Needless to say, I was completely shocked when I saw this picture and my dad’s story was finally shared with me. But, the story does not end there. I became obsessed to find out more information and more photos. And so, on a subsequent trip to Israel, I went on a search for additional details. Yad Vashem turned up nothing and I was down to my final day before return-ing to the States. With no afternoon plans, my uncle suggested I visit Binyenei HaUma (the Jerusalem concert hall), where they were having their annual book fair. I never saw so many books

in one place! I found a few books that interested me, and as I turned to purchase them before leaving, my eye was caught by a little book tucked in the corner of a shelf in the Holocaust section, entitled Children of Buchenwald. I quickly thumbed through it, and immediately came upon the full version of the picture shown below, together with many more details about Buchenwald, including lists of names of the children who were saved. People who visit Israel frequently would describe this as one of those “only in Israel could this happen” experiences! Among the names of those rescued children were Eli Wiesel, whom my brother eventually met, and Rabbi Yisrael Meir Lau, former Chief Rabbi of Israel, whom I had the pleasure of meeting. I raced back to my Uncle’s apartment to show him my book pur-chase, and told him to flip to page 26. He stared at the photo in complete disbelief, and finally said, “There’s your dad!” In the years that followed that trip, I met several other Holocaust survivors who spent time in Buchenwald and knew the story of my father’s experience from a letter he wrote home to my grandpar-ents in 1945, which was run in several local Denver newspapers. The letter was eventually given to me by one of the survivors. Here is an excerpt:

“I have gone through the concentration camp at Buchen-wald. I wish I could just make that flat statement and let it go at that, but if I did, I would be a traitor to everything I hold dear. So I must tell you what I saw, and in the telling, if I for the briefest moment arouse you, then I have not failed.”

He went on to describe, in detail much too graphic to share here, exactly what he saw. It was decidedly too much for any adult human who was there to completely take in, and way too much for my dad to share with his 8 and 12-year-old kids. But every April 10, I can at least remember.

(The soldier in front on the right, next to the prisoners, is my dad.)


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

Rabbi Chaim Vital, a great kabbalist who lived in Tzfat in the 15th century, writes that just as the world was created using four ele-ments—earth, air, fire and water—so too, each person was created using those same elements. For each individual, one particular element is dominant and this, to a large degree, determines your essential strengths and weaknesses. Identifying your “element” will help reveal the area of spiritual development (“tikkun”) you need to do to achieve your own greatness.”

As a reminder, we are in the month of Iyar and as we follow the month, we realize that it is a journey of spiritual engagement day by day, which we learn in counting the Omer each month or by nam-ing a relationship with the elements each morning in our prayers. This devotion can be an act of joy, vibrancy, and connection to our wholeness. Counting is a powerful practice, and a deeply human thing. We count many things: calories, sheep at night when we can’t sleep, the hours in a day, the weeks in a month, the months in a year, etc.

In a ritual known as “The Counting of the Omer” sefirat ha’omer in Hebrew, the Torah instructs us to number off every day of the 49 days that separate Passover, our festival of freedom, from Shavuot, the day we celebrate the receiving of the Torah. Like all Biblical holidays, all three - Passover, the Omer, and Shavuot (and Sukkot as well) - have agricultural connections, so an “Omer” is a sheaf of grain, and the “counting of the Omer” happens during the seven weeks that separate the wheat and barley harvest from the First Fruits offerings on Shavuot.

So, why counting and why these days?The answer is found in the secret of the number seven.The number seven is code for two things in the Torah - whole-ness and holiness - and it’s the base unit for the way sacred time is arranged in the biblical view. The seventh day is the day of rest. When the priests get the tabernacle ready to be God’s house, they do a seven-day ritual to prepare. Harvest festivals last seven days, and a baby boy gets seven days in the world before undergoing circumcision. When we count the omer, we count seven sets of seven, each week building on the one before, like a spiral staircase, helping us to make the climb up to wherever it is that revelation happens for us.

So, the question for you during this season of the Counting of the Omer is: what’s wholeness to you, and what’s keeping you from getting there? Can you use the ancient biblical practice of num-bering off these first days of spring to plant seeds of wholeness? Can you water them every day, by counting that day and making it count, so that when the first fruits festival arrives, it can be you who is harvested?

Yom Ha’atzmautYom Ha’atzmaut, or Israel Independence Day commemorates the establishment of the modern state of Israel in 1948. In Israel, Jewish people celebrate the day with fireworks, bar-becues, and public concerts. Outside Israel, Jewish commu-nities host parties and gatherings to celebrate. Often, the focus of these events is on Israeli culture, everything from classic Israeli foods — hummus, falafel, schnitzel, and shawarma — to Israeli dance, Israeli music, and all things Hebrew. People wear blue and white and wave Israeli flags. You can celebrate Yom Ha’atzmaut too by trying Israeli foods, listening to music, and learning about Israel.


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 spiritually attuned and awakened to its light and its power. We give our-selves 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 learning, ritual, and spiritual exploration to celebrate Rosh Chodesh with Cantor Shulie!

This month’s gathering will take place at 3:30 pm, Sunday, April 11, on Zoom.

Healing Through MusicMusic therapy is a burgeoning field. Those who become professionals in this field have deep knowledge of how music can evoke emotional responses to relax or stimulate people or help them heal. Cantors and sacred music spiritual leaders are also trained in this type of music knowledge and skill. A growing body of research attests that music therapy can improve medical outcomes and quality of life in a variety of ways.

Join the Beth Sholom community for a special afternoon of heal-ing music with Cantor Shulie. “Healing Through Music: An Inner Journey of Reflection,” will offer a soulful approach to coping with and healing from our struggles and hardships that we’ve faced over the course of this year. The program hopes to be a respite from all of that, providing the gift of song and music as a healing modality for the soul. This experience is a permission slip for the self, allowing participants to melt into the melodies that will be presented and explored, as a means of filling our cup back up with hope and healing.

Join us on May 30, at 1pm. Zoom link details to follow.

Holocaust Memorial Program - April 18


Lag B’Omer

Lag B’Omer, the 33rd day of the Omer count—this year, Friday, April 30—is a festive day on the Jewish calendar. It is celebrated with outings (on which children traditionally play with bows and arrows), bonfires, parades and other joyous events. Many visit the resting place (in Meron, north-ern Israel) of the great sage and mystic Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai, the anniversary of whose passing is on this day.

Have fun coloring the page below!
