A High Holy Days Update from Rabbi Alon

Dear Friends,

A few weeks ago, we sent you a survey about the High Holy Days, and the majority of the congregation answered.  You spoke very clearly.  86% of those who responded to our survey said that they   would not    attend an in-person service and 45% said that they may attend an activity if it is held outdoors. Therefore, our task was to figure out how to create a meaningful Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur experience when you will be joining us from home--and we have.

We figured out that despite all the obstacles we face this year, we still have the most important ingredients for the uplifting and spiritual services Temple Beth Am is known for. We have our talented musicians, all the prayers in a digital form, dedicated volunteers, you, our members, and us, your clergy. In addition, we hired professional videographers to ensure a remarkable high-quality streaming experience so that we can bring you the best High Holy Days services, virtually.

What we don’t have is a Sanctuary full of people. Our tradition, as always, was helpful in suggesting an alternative model. After the Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed, the Jews were worried that they would not be able to worship anymore. The Rabbis responded by introducing the concept of mikdash me’at, a small sanctuary. Our ancient teachers taught that we could turn any place into a holy space where God will be thrilled to dwell. Normally, the mikdash me’at is the synagogue, but this year it is our homes that will turn into Temples in miniature.

In the next   Scribe    you will be receiving a full description of our High Holy Days services and activities, as well as our suggestions of how to get the most out of them. I hope to see you at our Elul Sunrise Service this Friday at 6:30am under the Juno Beach Pier.

Dear Congregants and Friends,

Based on the latest updates about Covid-19, from Palm Beach County officials, and out of an abundance of caution for the health and well being of at risk individuals in our community, Temple Beth Am is making the following changes to our calendar of events:

• The Temple will closed to the public until further notice; however, the office is available via phone (561.747.1109) and email (tba@templebetham.com) only.    Our clergy and staff is hard at work on making virtual connections, creating quality learning opportunities, and digital programs and content for you.

• Services will be available via  Livestream ONLY. You can view Services on the Temple's Facebook page or by clicking here.

• The One School will begin Spring Break early. School, including enrichments, intersession, and Family Center programming will be suspended through Friday, March 27. At that time we will evaluate when it is safe to resume classes.

• Religious School classes, camp days, and youth group programs are suspended until further notice.

• All programming at the Temple is postponed  including but not limited to adult education, challah baking, choir, Men's Club and Sisterhood programming, special services, Shabbat dinners and socials, canasta, and mah jongg.

Many of you have inquired about the Levkovitz family. We have been in touch with them and want everyone to know that they are fine, and safe, and very grateful for all of your concern.

It is during times of uncertainty that the importance of community is most apparent, and the need so dire for some. What also becomes apparent during situations such as this is the spirit of a community, and if the phone calls we have received are any indication, the spirit of the Temple Beth Am community is characterized by love, chesed (kindness), and generosity. So many of you have called offering to help deliver food, groceries, and supplies to anyone who may be immune compromised and unable to shop for themselves, and offer financial assistance to those whose income may be affected during this time. When so many stories on the news are of people reacting in crazy ways, it is heartwarming to see how our congregants step up. If you would like to offer assistance or know of someone who may need it, please contact us at tba@templebetham.com or 561.747.1109.

Thank you for your understanding, support, and generosity, as well as your patience as we continue to make the decisions to best take care of our congregation and community. We remind you all to take care of yourselves and stay safe.   We know the need for community now is high. Please don't hesitate to be in touch with us, even if you don't need anything, or just want to check in or talk, we love to hear from you.

Please continue to check this page often as we post updates and information about    virtual programming opportunities.
