Shloshim. This Shabbat marks a remarkable

accomplishment for Joel Gordon. With the

Laining of Parshat Shmini, Joel will have Lained

every Sedra in the entire Torah. What makes this

milestone truly special is that Joel often times

spends his Shabbat morning running to Lain at

different Minyanim. He has made himself

available week in and week out and has

provided his talent, in the most gracious of

manners. The Religious Committee is proud to

have Joel as one of its members and is

dedicating Seudat Shlishit in his honor as well as

his lovely wife, Miriam, who has and continues

to enable him to participate in this manner. May

he continue to go "M'chayil L'chayil" Mazal Tov &

CONGREGATIONAL MEETING

Dear YIEB Member, The Mikvah board has been working tirelessly over the last year and a half in figuring out how to build a Kalim Mikvah on our property. Simply put, it’s not easy. Quite the opposite, given the issues with the wetlands, township, construction, etc. the best option we currently have to build a Kalim Mikvah would cost a minimum of $75,000. Knowing the situation that YIEB finds itself in, Torah Links graciously offered to house the YIEB Kalim Mikvah in their new building. In order to partner together in that initiative, YIEB would give $30,000 and Torah Links would cover the rest of the

building costs and maintenance costs. Partnering together in this initiative could not only benefit the YIEB community with a Kalim Mikvah but could show how YIEB and Torah Links working together could benefit the entire Jewish community. I thank Torah Links for offering us this extremely generous proposal. Please join us at the Congregational Meeting on April 7th at 8 PM to find out more information and vote on the motion that the YIEB Board passed. The text of the entire motion was sent out to the congregation via email. Thank you for your support, Sharon Weinstein _________________________________________

Every year, thousands of young Israeli combat soldiers are discharged from military service and are returned

to civilian life. Despite their lengthy and arduous

physical training, scant attention is paid to their

psychological preparedness to cope with the aftermath

of traumatic experiences they may have had: Many

witnessed terrible sights, made split-second life and

death decisions, or expe rienced the loss of a comrade.After three or more years spent in a strict

military framework, many feel overwhelmed by the

decisions and demands of civilian life. They may

develop symptoms ranging from difficulties with

concentration to sleep and memory disorders. Other

manifestations include substance abuse, anger, and

symptoms which can lead to full-blown Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

Peace of Mind

(http://www.peaceofmindictp.com/index.html)

reunites soldiers who served together.Peace of Mind

(POM) offers them the admiration and respect of

American Jewish communities while providing them

with time in Israel and in American host communities in which they can receive treatment for the grief,

bereavement, and guilt that resulted from their

experience in IDF service.For Highland Park/Edison to

become a POM host community we must raise the

funds to underwrite the cost of the treatment program.

To date, over half of the necessary funds have been

collected to bring young veterans and their Israeli psychologists to our community November 9 - 16,

2014.During the time that they are here, the veterans

will work with their psychologists in the mornings and

spend the afternoons doing the things that twenty-

somethings do:sightsee and experience New York and

New Jersey.The time that we spend with these soldiers,

whether in our homes or in special evening programs,

is a vital part of their healing program.To learn more about the Peace of Mind Program, please join us at the

home of Marcia and Barry Levinson (419 Becker

Street, Highland Park) on March 31st at 8 PM. Please

show your support and Hakarat Hatov to soldiers who

have risked their lives for our homeland and for our

friends and families living in Israel. RSVP to Barbara

Strassman (barbara.strassman@gmail.com or

732/545-3931). If you are unable to attend this

meeting but would like to support the program, please

send donations made out to American Friends of
