The Time of Our Rejoicing • Zeman Simchateinu
- By the time you read these words, we will be just days away from the start of the High Holy Days, and the New Jewish Year they usher in. Just a few days after, we will together share the Ten Days of Awe, and make our vows to begin the year fresh. We will spend a day in earnest personal reflection and hope to be inscribed for blessing anew in the Book of Life.
- Yet the season of the Jewish New Year is more than those first Ten Days of Awe. Although Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are the ‘stars’ of the High Holy Day Season...they get much of the attention and the press...the holidays do not end there. Following on the heels of Yom Kippur is the week-long festival of Sukkot. Sukkot is a time for us to come together, to appreciate the blessings of shelter and food, and to give thanks for the gift of community and family.
- About fifteen years ago, sometime after Sukkot ended, our Director of Early Childhood Education, Nuccia Hernan of blessed memory came to me with a paper cup containing a tiny seedling. “I planted some of the seeds from this year’s etrog,” she said. “Here, see if it grows.” I took home the fragile shoot, a bit dubiously, and watered it. Soon it outgrew its small pot. A few more years went by, and a few transplantings later, we saw tiny white flowers burst out all over the branches. The following year we had our first etrog that ripened in the late fall, after Sukkot ended. And the year after that, finally, we hit the jackpot...I proudly brought my home-grown etrog into our Temple sukkah!
- Sukkot is called zeman simchateinu, the time of our rejoicing. And there is much to celebrate at this time of year...the gift of community, the joy of coming together to dwell in a sukkah under the stars, the gift of an earth that brings us abundant food, the wonder of the change in seasons, and the growth of living things. When we shake the lulav and etrog together, we look in all directions and find our blessings, and God’s presence everywhere.
- However, Sukkot isn’t all unmitigated joy. It is also a time to acknowledge our fragility. To be kosher, a sukkah cannot be too stable - it must have a roof made of branches assembled in such a way that you can see the sky through them. And its walls cannot be solid or fixed. When you dwell in a sukkah, even in the midst of celebrating, you are meant to feel yourself at the mercy of the elements to remind you that no matter how strong our walls may be, they can come toppling down.
- An etrog harvest is fragile too. This year we had many white blossoms on our small tree, and many of them sprouted fruit, but the squirrels and rabbits got to them before they could grow. All that remains on the tree is one valiant bud whose fruit we hopefully will see before the frost.
- This Sukkot morning on October 17th at 11:30am, please join us for a very special program sponsored by the Lifelong Learning Committee. We will welcome Dalia Marx, professor at HUC-JIR Jerusalem and author of the new book, From Time to Time: Journeys in the Jewish Calendar. Professor Marx is an engaging, dynamic speaker, and she will be able to share with us the joys of the Jewish holiday cycle, and her take on the fragile situation in Israel as well. You will not want to miss this special program.
This Sukkot, may you find wonder in the growth of a seed and every new beginning, and hope in the midst of every storm.

Embracing Change: The Spirit of Renewal
- During the High Holy Days, we typically spend time reflecting on the previous year, both what we have done well and where we need to improve. It is a time of renewal, and in this spirit, we seek forgiveness for our past sins and pledge to do better in the new year. At the same time, we invite ourselves to recommit to our Reform Jewish values and to deepen our connections within our Temple community.
- This is a bit of an unusual year for our community. We survived - and dare I say even thrived - in the face of extreme adversity. We successfully faced the twin plagues of flood and disease. We lived outside our building for a full year and without our sanctuary for two years. Religious School met in rented space for two full years.
- Through it all we have kept up our programming and maintained our vibrancy. We have learned that we are a strong, connected community that is not dependent on the building where we worship and gather. Our congregation is not just a place we attend; it is a home where we can grow, learn, and support one another.
- With the demographic shifts in our neighborhoods, we have spent a lot of time rethinking the best way we can maintain our vibrancy and grow our community long-term. As I mentioned in my President’s Letter in July, the Future Planning Committee believes that the most viable long-term option to meet the needs of our community is through a partnership with a similar minded Reform Congregation.
- As we plan for this future, we understand that change is ahead. We know that change will lead to an even stronger and more vital community that will be well positioned to be a vibrant center for Reform Judaism in Western Nassau and Eastern Queens. I invite everyone to embrace this change and share our excitement for the possibilities that lie ahead.
- I hope to say hello to everyone at our various High Holy Day Services.
- Note that our services do not end with Yom Kippur. On Wednesday, October 16th everyone is invited to a Pizza Dinner and Sukkah Decorating Event followed by a Festival Service. The following Wednesday, October 23rd, there will be another Pizza Dinner followed by our Erev Simchat Torah Service and Consecration of New Religious School Students. All are invited to dance with the Torah!
- Together, let’s embrace this season of renewal and continue to build a future that reflects our shared values and aspirations.
- We have a full plate of activities scheduled throughout the year. I encourage each of you to think about your role in our community and how you can contribute to our collective mission. Whether it is volunteering your time, sharing your talents or simply being present, every action counts.
- As always, please reach out to me with your questions, comments and ideas.
L’Shana Tova!

What do you know about the four species of Sukkot? There are many different ways to understand the meaning of the four types of plants; for example, some scholars say that the plants relate to parts of the body. The shape of the etrog (citron) represents the heart, the lulav (palm frond) the spine, haddas (myrtle) is shaped like an eye, and aravah (willow branch) represents the mouth. In this interpretation, binding the four species together for Sukkot rituals reminds us of the wholeness of all humans. (PJ Library: Sukkot Treasure Hunt by Allison Ofanansky)
"Hi! My name is Charlotte Faulkner and my Bat Mitzvah is on February 22nd 2025. For my Mitzvah Service Project, I'm reading aloud books to kids and doing a book drive for the Book Fairies, because I love to read. It would be so great if you could help out and donate books between September 29th and December 15th. Thank you!"

New Beginnings
- We had a terrific start to the school year. The children were happy to see one another, and our parents enjoyed catching up at our parent orientation.
- Our students are busy studying life cycles and learning about their Hebrew names. Our 2nd through 7th graders all have started their Individual Hebrew Tutoring Sessions.
- With the start of school comes new students. Welcome to the following new students: • Kindergarten: Ada Alexander, Rebecca Braunstein, Carson Lavoie, and Lucas Podber • Grades 2/3: Charlotte Miller, Louis Mora, and Mia Weinstein
- Please join us on October 23rd for our Simchat Torah Pizza Dinner and Celebration as we welcome them and consecrate their beginning of Religious School.
- We also want to welcome to our new parents: Seth and Helaine Alexander, Emily Kizner, and Elana Weinstein. We hope to see you at Religious School Committee Meetings and Family Events.
- October is a holiday filled month! We look forward to seeing everyone at our Rosh Hashanah (October 3rd) and Yom Kippur (October 12th) Family Services, at our Sukkah Decorating Dinner Event (October 16th), and at our Simchat Torah Celebration (October 23rd).
I now would like to introduce everyone to our wonderful Madrichim, our high school students who volunteer on Sundays to help out in our classrooms!
- My name is Lucas Baker. I am beginning my freshman year of High School. In my free time I love to play sports, video games, and spend time with my friends. I have been attending Religious School since third grade. I am really excited to be a madrich again this year and continue to give back to the Religious School.
- My name is Rebecca. I am 16 years old and I am in my junior year of high school. I like music, engineering, biology, and world history. I have been part of the Temple Tikvah Community since I was seven years old and have been a madrich at Temple Tikvah for the past 4 years. I can’t wait to meet you!
- My name is Aaron Weisser. I had my Bar Mitzvah this past December. I am entering high school and I graduated Hebrew School two years ago. I like to read a lot and this summer I read 27 books! I love hanging out with my family and my dog, Tiger. This is my second year as a madrich in Hebrew School.
- Hello, my name is Austin Lefkof. I am going into the ninth grade at Herricks High School and this is my second year as a madrich. I am very excited to start this new time of learning at Temple Tikvah.
- My name is Ethan Moy and I am in the 10th grade at Great Neck South High School. My favorite in-school and “outside” subjects are math and science. I have been interested in math for years and study things on my own. My favorite things (other than math and science) are programming, playing the cello, and my cat, Pepper.
- Hi my name is Leah McCorey. I am 14 years old and I am going into 9th grade at New Hyde Park Memorial. I love traveling, sports, crime shows, and much more! I am looking forward to this school year!
- Hi! I’m Jaci Gries and I recently became a Bat Mitzvah! My hobbies are volleyball, drama, biking, and crocheting. My favorite subject is science. I have two brothers named Ben and Harry, and two cats named Stanley and Leo. I love to help out and be a part of my community. My favorite way to help out is to lend a hand whenever I can. I am looking forward to being a madrich this year.
TIKVAH TOTS
Time to Invite (Ushpezin) Others and To Be Generous (Nedivut Lev)
- Let us rejoice! How easy that is for our little ones! If we look towards them more, perhaps we can find the joy in the tiniest things, like the leaves crunching under our feet or adding fruit to the walls of our sukkah.
- When I think of Sukkot, my first thought is the fun of decorating a sukkah, a space that welcomes all and allows us to see outside from within. We look up and see the wondrous world around us. Little people love to make sukkahs year round when they gather all the blankets they can find and create a tent in their living room or backyard using lawn chairs. They are the first to invite anyone to enter. They look around and use their imagination to make this warm space.
This year try to find opportunities to celebrate the inclusive spaces they create and honor the kindness they manifest.

DID YOU KNOW THAT SUKKOT HAS 2 NAMES? ... 1. Also called Z'MANZ SIMCHATEINU (Season of Our Rejoicing), Sukkot is the only festival associated with an explicit commandment to rejoice. 2. Another name for Sukkot is CHAG HA ASIF (Festival of the Ingathering), representing the importance in Jewish life of giving thanks for the bounty of the earth.

LIFELONG LEARNING
How Important is Sukkot?
- In Deuteronomy, Moses gives an impassioned speech to the Israelites shortly before they are to invade Canaan and create their land promised to them by God. Moses, as God’s spokesman and prophet, seems most concerned that the Israelites will forget their past and their special relationship to God. One of the actions he calls upon the Israelites to do is to make three pilgrimages each year to the holy place where the Ark of the Covenant will be stored. These holidays are what we now call Passover, Shavuot, and Sukkot. Sukkot, in particular is to be celebrated as a holiday of great joy with the harvested food representing all that we have gained by our relationship with God. When we dwell in tentlike structures on Sukkot, we recreate the exodus from Egypt, while the fruits of our labor, which decorate the temporary house, represent all that we owe to God. We also owe each other a debt of gratitude: We have created a civilization based on justice, mercy, humility, and love. No wonder that we feel joyous and that we should continue to do so, even when we find ourselves and our world falling short of the mark.
- To help us understand Sukkot and the other Jewish holidays better, Temple Tikvah has invited Rabbi Dalia Marx from Israel to speak about her book, From Time to Time: Journeys in the Jewish Calendar. Come hear and discuss with her the origins and relevance of the holiday festivals we celebrate to this day. She will be at our synagogue on Thursday, October 17th at 11:30am for a Lunch and Learn Event. Check the Weekly Temple Tikvah Update for more information.
- Please come and join your fellow congregants in a joyous Weekly Review of the Torah held each Saturday morning at 9:15am. Each session is on ZOOM and several are simultaneously held at the Synagogue, where we hungrily grasp for the meaning of the Jewish Tree of Life…and enjoy the lusty taste of bagels, coffee, and tea. In October, we complete our study of the Torah…and then start again in Genesis, peeling back the onion of these books to find meaning in our origin and especially in our current lives. You can find October’s Schedule in the Calendar at the end of this Issue or follow the Weekly Temple Tikvah Update for the ZOOM connection, as well as the most up-to-date times. When we meet in-person we congregate in Temple Tikvah’s Beber Auditorium.
Happy Holidays to Everyone
SOCIAL ACTION
The Season of Rejoicing and Making Proactive Choices
Early last year, Newsday ran an article about a Moody’s climate change risk assessment that ranked Long Island “fourth among major American population centers for exposure to the physical and economic risks of climate change, behind only San Francisco, Cape Coral, Florida, and New York City…”The risks included warming temperatures, severe hurricanes, rising sea levels, and “an elevated risk for drought because of the region’s sole source aquifer.”
- So for all of us living in this region, this month’s Tikvah Times Theme - the Sukkot message of joy and welcoming, but also vulnerability in the face of the natural world, could not be more relevant, especially as we consider our choices in the upcoming November elections. We have the opportunity to examine which candidates at every level of government have taken the positions and actions on climate and other issues that best align with our Jewish values, as well as which candidates will most likely support legislation that advances those values.
- This November our ballot also includes an amendment to the NY State Constitution, the New York Equal Rights Amendment or Proposal 1. The amendment will enshrine our rights and freedoms, including the right to abortion, in our state constitution. As explained by New Yorkers for Equal Rights, “...it closes loopholes in the state constitution to make sure that no New Yorker can be discriminated against by the government, regardless of gender, age, ethnicity, pregnancy status, disability status, or whether someone is LGBT.” Proposal 1 will be on the back of our ballot making it easier to miss than it otherwise would be.
- In September, Social Action was pleased to help organize two events offering information about the NY Equal Rights Amendment and an opportunity to take action. The first was held on Sunday, September 15th in conjunction with the North Country Reform Temple at their building in Glen Cove. Assemblyman Chuck Lavine spoke about the Proposal, we enjoyed a community brunch and then members of both congregations along with some other volunteers got down to the business of writing postcards about the ERA to NY voters.
- The second event, also with NCRT was a joint Social Action Shabbat held at our Temple on Friday, September 20th. This time the speaker was our local Assemblywoman Gina Sillitti, a co-sponsor of the bill that became the amendment. Attendees were able to pick up sets of postcards and instructions to complete at home.
If you know anyone, particularly a young person, who is not registered to vote, please remind them that applications must be in no later than Saturday, October 26th.
And finally, to everyone...Shanah Tovah! May you have a happy and healthy New Year!
BROTHERHOOD
Sukkot Reminds Us to Unify, Solidify, and Join Together to Celebrate and Reform
- The High Holy Days are upon us as we spend time together to bring in the New Year. We have prayed together and repented our sins together, and it is now time to celebrate Sukkot.
- We gather together to celebrate under the stars, as the Children of Israel did, as they journeyed through the desert for 40 years. We will spend time in the sukkah together reaping the friendships we have made at Temple Tikvah.
- Brotherhood continues to plan ahead with new events plus a change of time for one of them: • We have moved the meeting with Brad Kolodny, author of 125 Years of Synagogues on Long Island and The Jews of Long Island from Sunday, October 27th 2024 to Sunday, April 27th 2025 at 10:00am. We know it's early, however, mark your new 2025 calendars now for a very special event open to everyone. • On Sunday morning, December 8th Urologist Gary Goldberg will join us at 10:00am to answer the many questions we have on this important health area. • On Tuesday, December 10th Brotherhood has secured 30 seats at the new UBS Center for a hockey game between the New York Islanders and the Los Angeles Kings. Tickets are $60 for this 7:30pm game and will go fast. Please see the flyer on the next page.
- As the new Brotherhood year begins, we urge every Temple gentleman to join Brotherhood. You will not regret it. It provides the incentive to get involved with the many activities we perform such as latke and matzoh brei making for the Religious School students. Your dues and attendance at our events also provide funding for financial stipends for students attending Jewish themed summer camp.
Sisterhood
Let’s Rejoice Together with Our Tribe and Family
- I have warm memories of Sukkot. After the solemn period of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, Sukkot is a time of celebration, thanks, and family. Working with others to decorate our Temple Sukkah, as well as being with family for a meal in the Sukkah bring memories of laughter, joy, and belonging.
- With Sukkot being in mid-October this year, memories of being in my sister’s Sukkah during a cold October night comes to mind. We ate our dinner wearing heavy jackets and sweaters, hats, and gloves. After two courses in the Sukkah, we all agreed that we had met the expectation of eating a meal in the Sukkah and ate our dessert in the warm dining room. The next time Sukkot came also during cool weather, my sister’s family had a space heater under the table to help us stay warm. Whatever the weather will be this year, we hope you enjoy a meal in a Sukkah.
- Thank you to everyone who participated in our Sisterhood Rosh Hashanah Honey Sale. The funds raised will go towards security during Friday Night Services and Sunday Religious School.
- Please note: The Joint Program with Brotherhood scheduled for Sunday, October 27th 2024 with Brad Kolodny has been rescheduled due to conflicting schedules. The program has been rescheduled for Sunday, April 27th 2025. More information to come as we get closer to spring.
- Save the Date: Our Paid-up Membership Brunch is scheduled for Sunday, November 3rd at 12:30pm. Letters with dues information for the 2024-2025 year have gone out. If you haven’t already, please send in your dues by the end of this month to be able to attend the brunch and spend a fun afternoon with entertainment, shopping, good food, and the companionship of your Temple Tikvah Sisters. Further information will be arriving soon. Don’t forget that you must RSVP to attend this event. Paying your dues is not a reservation.
Chag Sameach!
IN MEMORIAM
• We mourn the passing of our beloved Robert Bader, who left us on August 30th 2024, just five days shy of his 100th birthday •
- A Life Well-Lived Life • Bob grew up in the Bronx as the youngest of five brothers. When World War II broke out, he proudly joined the Air Force. After the war, he earned a degree in engineering and dedicated 38 years to designing communication systems for AT&T before starting his own consulting company. • In his personal life, Bob married Pearl, with whom he had two children. They settled in New Hyde Park, where they shared 44 wonderful years together until Pearl's passing. Later, Bob found love again with Helen, enjoying 25 more years of marriage. Through this union, he embraced a new family, beautifully blending both families into one loving unit that included children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
- A Legacy at Temple Tikvah • Bob was an invaluable presence at Temple Tikvah (formerly Temple Emmanuel), where he served as past President. For many years, he led our bazaar, one of the most successful fundraisers each year. This was not just an event for Bob; it was a year-round commitment where he excelled at securing goods for sale and rallying volunteers. When the Temple faced challenges after losing its caterer, Bob stepped up once again by introducing a Bridge Group to rent our catering hall twice weekly, providing essential income for the Temple. Bob's dedication to fostering community among Temple members was evident in many ways. He organized annual reunion luncheons for “Temple Emanuel South,” our snowbirds in Florida, and coordinated Friday Night Shabbat dinners for residents at North Shore Towers. Even at 99+, Bob remained an active participant at every Board of Trustees Meeting, sharing insights about our Temple's history and offering thoughtful suggestions and constructive criticism. The men of his generation affectionately referred to themselves as “the dinosaurs,” and Bob was not only the last of this remarkable group but also one of its greatest leaders. Our Temple has been truly blessed to have had him as a member and guiding force...Courtesy of Merle Fishkin & Jay Beber
