Bold Statements to 

Guide Our Future 

Imagine a congregation that is warm 

and welcoming, where everyone feels 

connected to Judaism and each other. 

Imagine a congregation actively committed to 

Jewish education, teen involvement, Shabbat, 

Israel and the Conservative Movement. 

Imagine a congregation that encourages the use of mentors 

and technology and seeks to reduce financial barriers and be 

intentional Jews. 

This vision for Adath Jeshurun was introduced over the High 

Holidays in the form of eleven bold statements. A complete listing 

can be found on page 9 of this Clarion. Although some of these 

statements will be implemented over time as resources permit, 

we are well on the way towards realizing our overall vision. 

Programs such as Synaplex, Creative Adult Morning Program 

(C.A.M.P.) and L’dor V’dor are just a few examples where we 

educate and provide opportunities to connect with one another. 

Our Shabbat Coffee Lounge, outreach efforts and drivers through 

Yad Sima Tova help foster a warm and welcoming community. 

Numerous other examples exist where we provide quality teen 

programming, and where we engage congregants in Israel, the 

Conservative Movement and the broader community. 

Although we have much to celebrate, there is more to do and I 

encourage you to get involved with one of our committees and 

take advantage of the many wonderful programs and activities 

we offer. For further information please see the Adath website 

(www.adathjeshurun.org) or feel free to contact me via the Adath 

office (952.545.2424 or office@adath.net).

Adath’s Annual Purim Pushke Project 

Needs Your Help to Help Our Neighbors 

The economy has been improving slowly, but too many of 

our members and neighbors continue to need help. The 

Adath Hesed Committee has pledged the funds collected 

for this year’s Purim Pushke Project to support the only 

social service agency in this area with a kosher food shelf, 

STEP in St. Louis Park. 

This is a particularly significant year for STEP as it raises 

funds in a Capital Campaign for its own building while 

continuing to serve the needs of its extensive service area. 

Observe the Purim mitzvah of matanot l’evyonim (gifts 

for the poor) by joining Adath’s Hesed Purim Pushke 

Project in support of STEP’s fundraising drive. Contribute 

from your pushke, checkbook, or wallet! Pushke Project 

donations are accepted during all of the Purim celebrations 

or by mail or in person to the Adath office or education 

office during March. 

Adath’s Morning Minyan will match the funds donated, 

doubling the impact of your donation! There is an additional 

matching grant for STEP Capital Fund donations. 

Do you need a pushke tzedakah donation box for your 

home? Contact the Adath office or Gan/education office.

Be a Minyan Maker 

Beginning in March, each week about 

20 Adath households will receive a 

special e-mail request, asking members 

of their household to attend daily 

minyan as many times as they are 

able to during a specific upcoming 

week. This request includes all 

household members who are 13 or 

older. We encourage you to use this 

opportunity to attend with your children 

and teach them the mitzvah of daily 

prayer. 

While Adath has a vibrant daily 

minyan, we still occasionally struggle 

to meet the required quorum of ten 

adult Jews. The daily minyan is 

extremely important to mourners and 

individuals who are observing a 

yahrzeit as well as those who are 

seeking the spiritual comfort of prayer 

in a welcoming community. With this 

new system of dividing the congregation 

into 52 groupings to receive requests 

for specific weeks, we hope to 

ensure the vibrancy of our minyan. Of 

course we encourage you to attend 

minyan at any time, with or without an 

e-mail request. 

Our new ―Minyan Maker‖ program is 

modeled after a successful program 

developed by Rabbi Micah Peltz at 

Temple Beth Shalom in Cherry Hill, 

New Jersey. Rabbi Peltz grew up at 

Adath and is the son of our members 

Paul and Henrietta Peltz.

Romeo and Juliet in Yiddish 

April 2 at the Minneapolis 

Jewish Film Festival 

The 2011 Minneapolis Jewish Film 

Festival is March 24 through April 10. 

This festival presents feature films, 

documentaries and shorts from around 

the world on themes of Jewish culture 

and identity. 

Adath Jeshurun has ―adopted‖ the film 

Romeo and Juliet in Yiddish. Shakespeare’s 

words come to life in Yiddish 

in this innovative drama (English plus 

subtitles) about ex-Orthodox guys who 

lend their Yiddish skills to a budding 

scholar. The one problem: they have 

never heard of Shakespeare! Parental 

discretion advised; recommended for 

ages 18+. 

Meet the filmmaker Eve Annenberg 

and see her film on Saturday night, 

April 2 at 8:30 PM at the Sabes JCC. 

The synagogue receives 10% back 

when our members mention Adath 

Jeshurun when they purchase tickets 

to this film. 

For tickets and a full schedule go to

From Your 

Congregational Nurse 

Debby Jewett 

In my work as your Congregational Nurse, I’ve visited 

many congregants who are living with dementia. Dementia 

is a progressive brain impairment which usually goes 

through stages resulting in increasing inability to perform 

daily activities, most often requiring increasing help and 

care. A number of conditions can result in dementia. The 

most common is Alzheimer’s disease. 

Many of us have friends and family members living with 

dementia. We know that communication becomes more 

difficult as a person with Alzheimer’s ages, but communication 

continues to be a vital link to our friends and family. 

Here are some suggestions you may find useful when 

visiting a friend or relative. They have helped me in 

communicating with people with dementia. 

Communication isn’t just words. You’re making a human, 

emotional connection and often that can be done nonverbally. 

Holding hands or sitting close by can be comforting. 

Use the past as a bridge to the present. Use your knowledge 

of your loved one’s past interests, work, hobbies, and 

family to draw them out. Pictures, especially of family or 

homes and other familiar places can be a springboard to 

Wednesday, May 25 • Tree of Life Luncheon. 

This is the day we honor our Gan Shelanu, and 

the children entertain us along with other professional 

entertainment. A delicious lunch will 

be served. 

Sunday, June 12 • Installation of a New President and 

Officers. 

November 6, 2011…SAFAM… 

Fabulous Concert! 

Board members please attend the Tuesday, March 8 

Board meeting at 10 am to 12 noon in the Adult Lounge. 

Gift Shop—Passover is coming! The Gift Shop has many 

new holiday items. Hours are Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 

8:45 AM-12:15 PM, and Sunday mornings when there is 

Sunday School. When there is no one in the shop Risa or 

Janice in the Gan will be happy to open the doors for you. 

Or call for an appointment with Ardis Wexler, 952.925.2097 

or Raleigh Brand, 612.926.7871. 

Purchase Women’s League cards from Jean Rosenzweig, 

952.797.0262. She will even mail them for you. 

We look forward to seeing you at any or all of our events. 

We welcome you, however you choose. 

Sheri Steinman, President 

763.543.4351, shevst@aol.com (Contact me at any time.) 

communication. Beloved or familiar music can trigger 

memories. I’ve seen people who can’t name their family 

members, but can sing along perfectly and joyfully to a 

popular song from their youth. 

Sometimes a trigger is talking about a family Shabbat ritual, 

or a holiday observance such as lighting Hanukkah candles. 

Almost everyone who has been connected to a synagogue 

remembers Adon Olam – I’ve had congregants with dementia 

sing along with me. All of these can bring warmth and 

comfort, and possibly conversation. 

Don’t be discouraged or impatient when your loved one 

(with or without dementia) asks the same questions 

repeatedly, or tells the same story over and over. They’re 

reaching out to communicate with you and they appreciate 

the loving and patient responses you give. 

Your presence is the most important thing you can give. 

Your loved one may not cognitively remember you, but your 

presence makes them feel good. They will be happy to see 

you right now, in the moment. Though your loved one may 

not remember that you visited, they enjoyed being with you 

while you were there.

Bold Statements 

To Guide Our Future 

August 2010 – Av 5770 

The mission of Adath Jeshurun Congregation, 

a member of the Conservative Movement, is 

to be a progressive, egalitarian and sacred 

community dedicated to Torah (learning and 

tradition), Avodah (prayer and spirituality) and 

Gemilut Hasadim (acts of loving kindness). 

Welcoming Place (Hachnasat Orchim): We are a warm, welcoming congregation that promotes inclusion and 

participation while valuing diversity. We embrace welcoming as an important Jewish value and a responsibility 

shared by all as we support each other throughout all stages of life, and in times of joy and times of need. 

Connectedness (K’sharim): Judaism is grounded in community. We will connect with one another through a 

rich variety of opportunities that foster smaller communities, engaged in our congregation, reflecting the commitment 

to our mission and values. 

Education (Chinuch): Education is the foundation for a committed Jewish life. We will provide a lifelong continuum 

of quality Jewish learning opportunities to congregants of all ages, abilities and means through a combination 

of our own resources and that of our community partners. 

Teen Involvement (Noar): We value our teens and seek to engage them in congregational life. We will foster a 

sense of belonging and spiritual fulfillment among our teens and remove barriers to full participation in everyday 

Jewish life. We will provide leadership and financial support, creative programming, and will welcome teen input 

into congregational committees. 

Israel (Yisrael): Our commitment to the Land, the People and the State of Israel is steadfast. We will provide 

and promote opportunities for congregants to experience, visit, and learn more about Israel and will maintain a 

strong connection with the Masorti Movement and Magen Avraham, our sister congregation in Omer. We will 

strongly advocate for pluralism and tolerance in Israel and will model this by being respectful of differing points of 

view. 

Shabbat (Shabbat Kodesh): We inspire our members to experience the beauty and holiness of Shabbat, respecting 

tradition and offering an innovative array of Shabbat experiences. We recognize that Shabbat is celebrated 

in the synagogue, the home and other places. 

Conservative Judaism (Tenuah): We model what it means to be a leading Conservative Jewish congregation, 

fully engaged with our national organizations as they reshape our movement. 

Financial Commitment (Kemach): We will take a leadership role in developing resources that reduce financial 

barriers to participation in congregational activities and in the broader Jewish community. 

Technology (Technologia): We are committed to utilizing and expanding current and new technologies in order 

to extend our presence beyond the physical building. 

Mentoring (Hadracha): As congregants journey through a life dedicated to Torah, Avodah, and Gemilut 

Hasadim, we will provide mentors to welcome newcomers and increase the congregation’s overall knowledge, 

skills and comfort level with their own Jewish journey. 

Intentional Jews (Kavanah): We are a congregation that fosters intentional Jewish living. We will help 

members grow to become active Conservative Jews living in a vibrant, spiritual, caring and ethical community. 


Honor a Teacher Who 

Inspired You 

In his recent State of the Union 

address, President Obama 

encouraged all of us to become 

teachers. His message is not new. We 

find it in the Talmud as well: ―Whoever 

teaches his son teaches not only his 

son but also his son's son—and so on 

to the end of generations‖. We as 

Jews have always been committed to 

education and lifelong learning, as well 

as to teaching our children the ways of 

the world. 

As we aspire to implement the goals 

and vision for the future of our congregation, 

education, or chinuch, plays a 

fundamental role as the foundation for 

a committed Jewish life. We hope to 

provide a lifelong continuum of highquality 

Jewish learning opportunities 

to congregants of all ages, abilities 

and means, through a combination of 

our own member resources and that 

of our community partners. 

A D A T H J E S H U R U N F O U N D A T I O N 

Over the years, Adath has been 

blessed to welcome renowned 

scholars into our home and our 

minds. You may recall when Noam 

Zion challenged us to re-think how 

we celebrate Pesach. Rabbi Elliott 

Dorff and Rabbi Steven Greenberg 

helped spearhead our keruv/ 

outreach efforts to reach out to gay 

and lesbian Jews and others who 

may feel marginalized or without a 

place in our community. Rabbi Amy 

Eilberg helped bring the topic of 

spirituality and healing to the forefront—now 

a priority of our Yad Sima 

Tova Program. These scholarly visits 

were made possible by the generosity 

of several Foundation funds that 

support adult learning opportunities. 

As we look ahead we ask you to 

consider honoring a teacher who 

inspired you, by sponsoring a program 

that will educationally touch 

the lives of others, of any age, in 

our congregation. 

For more information on how you can 

help secure Adath’s well-being for this 

and future generations, contact 

Jennifer Herman Spiller by phone 

at 952.215.3916 or by e-mail at 

jspiller@adath.net or you can find us 

on the web at 

www.adathfoundation.org. 

Thanks to the Gail and Harvey Goldstein Gan 

Book Fund, our youngest congregants have 

classroom collections to enjoy.
