President's Message By Gary Bloch
Summer is finally here…it took a bit long to warm up but we are now in full beach mode. And we all know what comes after summer…the Jewish High Holidays, which this year start in mid-September. I am pleased to announce that starting this year, our Liberal and Traditional services will be combined into one service at the Main Sanctuary at 9 Hadassah Way. These services will be officiated by Rabbi Ben Lefkowitz, with the assistance of Cantorial Soloist Lauren Andrews. Lauren has been performing at our Liberal Services for several years and is well known to members of our community. Further details will be available next month, but please be aware that participants of prior Liberal Services will be offered the same financial terms previously available to them to attend the new combined services. So plan to join us as we begin this new chapter in our Temple’s history!

The Bikur Cholim Outreach Program
Temple Beth Sholom is proud to provide an expanded outreach program for our extended Temple community. “Bikur Cholim” - conducted by Rabbi Lefkowitz who continues to call or visit infirmed patients and Dr. Robert Parris who reaches out to members of our extended community who may be ill, or have a relative who is ill, and offer Temple Beth Sholom’s support in their time of need. This includes arranging transportation to and from medical appointments; running errands such as picking up prescriptions or groceries; or simply offering comfort and support. Several members of our congregation have volunteered to help as needed. It is a mitzvah to offer assistance to the sick or suffering and an act of compassion, selflessness and loving-kindness. If you are in need of the Temple’s support, call the Temple Office at 781-925-0091 or send an email to: . If you would like to participate in offering support to others when needed, please contact the Temple Office.
