Rabbis MessageWomen this Past Year

It would seem as though much of this year has focused on women's rights. On Yom Kippur I ad-

dressed the destructive plan for the government to withdraw funding from Planned Parenthood.

This past January I had the honor of delivering the invocation before the Governor's State of the

State Address in Albany. My role there in particular was to set the stage for the Governor's

Women's Equality Agenda, addressing equal pay for equal work, protection from sexual harass-

ment, anti-discrimination laws regarding pregnancy (or potential pregnancy), non-discrimination

laws in cases of abuse, and access to medical care, particularly with regard to reproductive health care. It is a ten

-part agenda which cannot be parsed. All ten issues must be included in the final legislation.

Then, barely more than a week after this address, I had the privilege of speaking on an interfaith panel at the

Downstate Medical School regarding reproductive choice. This forum was convened by Medical Students for

Choice, and was scheduled to coincide with the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. We at Union Temple also

marked this anniversary with a forum on the salient issues that still exist.

This past March, I joined several hundred of our fellow New York Jews at the Town & Village Synagogue for

Rosh Chodesh Nisan, in solidarity with Women of the Wall, who were being arrested in increasing numbers

month after month this past year, for the "offenses" of wearing talitotand praying in full voice at the Kotel

Hama'aravi, the Western Wall in Jerusalem.

Early this May, I joined our fellow Reform Jews from New York for Advocacy Day of Reform Jewish Voice

of NYS in Albany, to urge our legislators to adopt the Governor's Women's Equality Agenda.

Then this past May 10th, I again joined our fellow New York Jews in Madison Square Park for the celebration of

Rosh Chodesh Sivan, and in solidarity with Women of the Wall. But this time, it was after the Jerusalem District

Court decision declaring that women wearing talitot, reading from the Torah, and praying together at the Kotel

did NOT constitute provocation and public disturbance. This time, instead of arresting Women of the Wall, the

police arrested the Haredim who were throwing rocks at them. Finally - reason and sanity emerge.

Looking back on this extraordinary series of events, only within a six-month period, doesn't it seem odd that

we're having to put out all this energy at this time? Shouldn't all this be self-evident by now? The Women's

Movement moved into full swing 40 years ago. Why should we still be fighting these fights now, 40 years

later? Equal pay for equal work? Access to reproductive health care? Protection against harassment and

abuse? . . . Where are we living? Isn't this supposed to be an enlightened society? Isn't Israel supposed to be

one too? New York, of course, is one of the more progressive states in our country, or so we would like to

think. But the regressive statutes introduced, and in some cases passed, by other states around the country, are

turning the clock back on women's reproductive rights in very serious ways.

We are moving into the summer months, and naturally, we will slow down a bit. But these issues are still very

much with us. And we dare not let down our guard too much, lest we lose ground that we cannot afford to

lose. I hope that all of us will remain vigilant so that we can bring our society into line with the progress that

we would wish to have made by now. This is for ALL of us. . . .

I do wish all of you a restful summer, and hope you will drop in for Shabbat services during July and August,

in support of your fellow congregants.

-Rabbi Linda Henry Goodman

Officers ColumnStepping Up

One of the gratifying things about being a long-

time member of the Temple (has it really been

six years since our adult Bnei Mitzvah?) is see-

ing new leaders emerge. This year has been es-pecially rewarding.

For two years now, the Temple has been

blessed with the highly-effective duo of FayeWhite-Willinger and Lorri Gumanow, co-chairs

of the Religious School Committee. Largely

due to their efforts, we now have a firmly estab-

lished First Friday Family Shabbat and the fun-filled annual kids Purim Festival.

Special thanks are due to all our Youth Group

parents, who totally stepped up when our YouthGroup leader resigned, to keep the program go-ing for their teenagers. Co-chairs Susan Buchs-

baum, Beatrice Segal and Rachel Woolley, inparticular, were instrumental in pulling off an-

other Midnight Run, collecting and distributingfood and clothing, with the kids, to the home-

less on the streets of Manhattan and serving

on the search committees that brought us ournew Youth Group Leader, Aaron Levi, and our

first Director of Youth and Family Engagement,

Mindy Sherry.

Bob Newhouser and Pearl Schonfeld recently

took the reins of the Adult Education Commit-

tee, ably succeeding the indefatigable PeggyLebenson. Already they have nailed down the

rest of this years events, and half of next years

schedule. It will be a well-packed year.

And what a find we have in Dennies Gajadhar.Dennies has organized crews to make latkes,

hamentaschen, cookies and all manner of feasts

for special occasions. She was the driving forcebehind Union Temples first congregational Sec-

ond Seder, a wonderful tradition in the making.

The work of the Temple couldnt go on without

the efforts of all our generous and dedicated

volunteers. I thank you alland am delighted to

see your numbers increase.

and Howard Katzman, and Rabbis Linda and Stephen

Goodman, in the NY State Assembly Chamber.

Did you feel the earth shake in April?

Well, it didwith a court decision in

Israel that was felt by Jewish women

around the world. On April 11, 2013,

Judge Moshe Sobel of the Jerusalem

District Court upheld the earlier deci-

sion of the magistrate's court that

women who wear prayer shawls and

pray aloud at the Western Wall should

not be arrested. He agreed with the

magistrate's ruling that Women of the

Wall are neither violating "local cus-

tom" nor "causing a public distur-

bance." He wrote, according to The

Times of Israel, that "the idea of the

'tradition of the site' can be interpreted

more broadly, in terms that are

'pluralistic-secular-nationalist' rather

than purely Orthodox."

Join Sisterhood on Sunday, June 2nd at

10 AM., as we celebrate this ground-

breaking decision and view the stirring

and powerful documentary PRAYING

Sisterhood

A Voice to be HeardIN HER OWN VOICE: The

Struggle of the Women of the

Wall for Religious Freedom

in Israel. It's an inspiring

way to end what has been a

season of terrific programs.

To top it off, there will be a

sumptuous brunch and a not-

to-be missed mystery raffle.

Since this will be our last

program of the season, we'll

also be holding a brief elec-

tion. We hope that you

would like to submit yourname or nominate someone

as an officer or member of

the board. Not yet a member

of Sisterhood? Not to worry.

Sisterhood bills will be

mailed out this month. Join-

ing our warm circle of

friendship is as easy as mail-

ing in a check for $36. Just

of bringing hope and help

where they are needed by

adding your voice, your

heart, and your hands to ours

as together we reach out to

help our temple, our commu-

nity, and our world.

Sisterhood wishes everyone

a happy summer. Enjoy all

the pleasures of the long,

lazy days of July and Au-

gust. Then come back rested,

happy, and ready to join us

for another great season!

Preschool Sipping and BiddingAs we near the end of the school year in addition to

focusing on year end events in the classrooms, we also

had some school-wide fund-raising events. On April

10thwe kicked off our annual on-line silent auction.

Bidding went on for two weeks culminating in a won-

derful Spring Gala. The Gala was held on Wednesday

evening April 24th in the Temple Ballroom. The

theme for the evening was old Hollywood. The room

was decorated with black table linens, beautiful can-

dles, flowers and lots of glitter. Catering for the event

was provided by Car lo Soranno of

www.mychefdirect.com. Desserts were provided by

Sarah Dima, a parent of a Robin student, and owner of

606 R&D. In addition to donating delicious home-

made donuts, one of the specialties of her restaurant,

she also donated several cheese platters for the party,

and two silent auction items, gift certificates to her

restaurant. The highlight of the evening was a live

auction hosted by a comedian and actor, Steve Rosen.

He really got the crowd going with a combination of

humor and enthusiasm. We were lucky enough to be

able to auction off a two room suite at a luxury hotel

in Del Rey Beach Florida; a beautiful pair of earrings;

a closet consultation by a stylist to the stars; a cooking

tutorial for two offered by Melissa Clark, a parent of a

Puffin student; two donations of a long weekend at

their beautiful home in the Catskills by Vanessa and

Rob Kassabian, parents of a Chickadee student; an

Australian Barbeque at the home of Andrew Leitch

and Alexandra Tolk, parents of a Chickadee student;

tickets toAnnie donated by Lara Cohen and Ben Heller,

parents of a Sparrows student; and some incredible

photographs donated by Anna Williams and Todd

Huffman, both parents of Robins students.

The evening was a lot of fun. We sipped wine,

Prosecco and gimlets as we listened to music from the

forties. The silent auction and spring gala with its live

auction set a record as the biggest fund-raisers we

have ever held. We plan on spending the funds to un-

derwrite a new Spanish program as well as to increase

the presence of our schools psychological consultant

at the school. Our Spanish program will begin in Sep-

tember and we will be offering it on Monday and

Wednesday afternoons to all full day students.

Many thanks to an incredibly dedicated and hard-

working committee that included, Nicole Tu, KebraCaleo, Andrew Leitch, Abby Fleischer, Rachel Ulanet,

and Laura Phillips. Special thanks to Krista Bogetich

who headed up both the silent auction and the Spring

Gala. Her incredible hard-work, dedication, and amaz-

ing organizational skills, all came together to make

this an amazing event.
