1 1 March The New Adventure Begins! By Eleanor Weber Dickman The sun was the brightest participant in the festivities that began on the front lawn of Congregation Beth David at 10:00 am on Sunday, January 25, Turning the atmosphere into a warm spring day, the sun reflected the warmth, sense of community, and excitement of anticipation for the happy turnout of congregants, congregation leaders, political friends, and guests. It had been a long journey to this day. Fifty years ago, four founding families began to put a vision into action. The Daniels, Dreifus, Kallman, and Postman families put energy, dedication, resourcefulness, and commitment into creating a new spiritual community. In This Issue: From the Rabbi Page 3 President s Perspective Page 5 Calendar Pages 16 & 17 Don t Miss Scholar-in- Residence Page 18 All members of Saratoga s City Council came out to help breakground on our new building Beth David s congregational homes were many: from a Meeting House in Santa Clara to the West Valley Presbyterian Church in San José, from El Camino Real and McKinley Avenue in Sunnyvale in Stelling Road in Cupertino to Prospect Road in Saratoga. The congregation grew, with vision and vigor, with loyalty and pride. Current President David Hoffman opened the proceedings banging (gently) on the podium with his uniquely appropriate gavel a hammer! With humor, pride, and warmth, the tone of the event was set. David recalled the congregation s journey to its present home and acknowledged all the past presidents whose leadership and commitment had helped shape and strengthen the synagogue. Senior Rabbi Ohriner opened the groundbreaking ceremony by acknowledging that The Jewish people have always understood that a holy community must have a holy place (makom kadosh). Rabbi Alexander acknowledged the blessings bestowed upon us by dedicated and generous members.

3 3 From the Rabbi By Rabbi Leslie Alexander In the 16 years in which I was not a congregational Rabbi, I had the opportunity to " shul hop". For those unfamiliar with this interesting phrase, it means experiment with attending different synagogues. Actually, Ken and I belonged to three synagogues in that time, experiencing the wonderful and not so wonderful aspects of each. We learned A LOT! We found out just how crucial it is to be welcomed and embraced in the community. We learned how much it mattered that we felt like WE mattered, that we were recognized and greeted when present, that we were missed when absent, that we were invited to people's homes and that people enthusiastically accepted invitations from us. We learned how great it felt when people asked us if we were going to synagogue events and asked if we could meet up with them. We unfortunately learned a lot at some places about being ignored, feeling lonely, thinking ourselves insignificant and not quite good enough. I came away believing firmly that it truly doesn't matter in a synagogue if a person knows the prayers, can read the Hebrew, is as observant as the Rabbis or anything else that one can learn or take on. People can be completely happy in a community without any of those things IF they feel warm, included and cherished, not just by the clergy, but by each other. I came away from that kind of experience knowing just what I would want to ensure if I ever served a congregation again. And here I am, blessed to work at CBD with an incredibly caring and devoted colleague, Rabbi Ohriner and with all of you This is a time of wonderful change and growth in our community. New Rabbis along with the continued presence of our valued emeritus, new building, and wonderfully, many new CBD members. It is a perfect time to heighten our awareness of what matters most here at CBD and it is the reason for the design of our new building- feeling included and a part of an extended family. So, as Rabbi of community engagement and outreach, my FIRST concern is making sure that our CBD slogan is true, that there really is a place for everybody at CBD. If we make sure that all of us already connected to our synagogue feel happy here, we ourselves will be the best advertising about CBD to others unaffiliated in he community. With this in mind, we are very involved in reaching out to all of you, whether new or long time congregants of all ages and stages of life to help you connect to one another in " micro- communities" called Havurot and to create wonderful opportunities to socialize, celebrate and learn and support one another as extended family. In this issue of the Dvar you will see a description of what a Havurah is and the positive dimensions it can add to your life and the lives of your family. Many, many people who grew up as a part of their parent's havurah have a true sense of what a " village" is and even in adulthood, still look at members of the havurah as their closest adult relationships. We are, in addition, looking for members of CBD to volunteer to have your " antennae up" at shabbat services to reach out to people who you may not recognize and welcome them to our congregation. We want to make sure that visitors and new community members do not come to CBD and go home not having been integrated in some way into the life of the community. If you can volunteer to help be a matchmaker on Shabbat every couple of months, please let me, or Margie Pomerantz know. A Beit Knesset- House of Community, has to be the place where all of us, whether we have been here 50 years or 5 minutes, know that we matter and that people will notice and engage with us when we attend and, if we are generally present, notice and care if we are not. This is a time of newness and excitement for our synagogue. May the bright, fresh and welcoming environment we begin to build Insert physically, signature match the joyful, open and embracing environment we create socially and spiritually, for all of us, together. L shalom, Rabbi Leslie Alexander

5 5 President s Perspective By David Hoffman, CBD Board President Dear Friends, For my March column, I am reprinting the remarks I gave at Board Installation Shabbat on February 7 th. (I have omitted the Tu B shevat puns, however!) Shabbat Shalom! Two years ago, I stood before you and described what CBD meant to me, and my family, after my 2010 heart surgery and challenging recovery. Last year, I stood before you and spoke of how the board and the staff of this amazing shul were going to move boldly into our next 50 years. Recall, in just the past 12 months, we held a retirement celebration for Rabbi Pressman. We hired Rabbi Alexander. We elevated Rabbi Ohriner. We formally kicked off the Next 50 Building and Endowment Campaign. We laid the groundwork for new exciting, experimental and experiential Shabbat experiences. The groundwork was laid, and two weeks ago, it was broken, as the Next 50 Building project actually began. And on February 14th, the first of our new Shabbat experiences will kick off. I count myself lucky to be able to serve a second term during these transitional, liminal moments in our history. Of course, like Dan Skilken eloquently stated during our ground breaking about people thinking he was crazy enough to envision and then lead the Next 50 project, I ve got people asking me if I m crazy wanting to serve as president again. (The lead inquisitor is my sister, a past president of her shul. She really seems to enjoy reminding me that she is a past president). I d be crazy, and probably go crazy, but for the fact that I m not doing this alone. This congregation is blessed with an incredible staff that work their tails off on a daily basis. Whether it s Jillian s friendly voice answering the phones; Nestor setting up and breaking down room configurations; Monica processing checks, Lynn keeping you updated through our e-blasts, Iris, Andrea and Irene nurturing our youth and teens; Barbara keeping the Torahs rolled and Rabbis in line, and Tanya managing the office, the facilities, and organizing the move into the portables, our staff is an incredible resource that I am privileged to work with. Oh, did I mention our rabbis? The collaborative and creative energies that emanate out of Rabbis Ohiner and Alexander are simply intoxicating (think Hamen-scotchen) enlightening and entertaining. But our staff is only half the equation. You elected an incredible board -- committed volunteers who bring their own unique skills, abilities, interests and energies to CBD. I have been privileged to sit on many CBD boards; I am excited to work with this one. Rabbi Tarfon reminds us that the day is short and the work formidable... and then counsels that while it is not our job to complete the work, neither are we free to walk away from it. I could not walk away from the work we began 2 years ago, which is I agreed to serve as President again. We have completed some of our projects such as rabbinic succession and ground breaking. We are in the process of other projects, such as rolling out new programs for Shabbat Netivot Haneshamah, -- which arose from the Congregational forum in June of 2013, where YOU asked for alternative Shabbat experiences. We have also been studying new models for financial stability that we have been sharing with you. New programming is in the works Rabbi Alexander has even co-opted my wife to lead a program later this year! The work is formidable but so is this board. It will rise to the task of sheparding the shul through a year of construction and beyond. The synergy of Board and Staff is what makes CBD great, and what keeps me sane. I follow the advice of Moshe Rebbeinu s father-in-law Yitro to find and surround myself with good people, and delegate. I am in good hands with this Board, and so are you. I thank you for your trust and confidence in me. As I have said before, I am honored and humbled to be able to lead this amazing Kehilla. Shabbat Shalom, David Hoffman
6 6 The New Adventure Begins! Continued from front cover In addition, Rabbi Ohriner offered an invocation which acknowledged all those who had, over the decades, led the synagogue s growth and strength. We gather in joy and gratitude, he said, mindful of the blessings that have been bestowed upon us knowledge, wisdom, understanding, and the sense of community which has made us a true Kehillah, a sacred congregation. Rabbi Ohriner quoted the proverb which prophesied growth by building through wisdom and establishing through understanding. He cited four important foundations for strengthening the synagogue: understanding, learning, prayer, and community. Anna Eshoo, Congresswoman from California s 18 th Congressional District, described the event by quoting, This is a day the Lord has made, and acknowledged Rabbi Daniel Pressman for his 33 years of extraordinary leadership. Saratoga Mayor Howard Miller acknowledged the founders, clergy, staff, and Board members, saying, Future generations will read and know about the leadership of the visionaries who established this congregation, and praised all those whose stewardship of faith and community led to a renewed commitment to this holy place. He concluded, the expansion of your spiritual home is an example of living faith carried out by community. Rabbi Pressman praised congregation al leaders over the years for being forward thinking in your vision and faith. Noting that contributions by members of Beth David have extended throughout the Jewish community of the South Bay, he cited the names of congregants who have served in significant leadership positions with other Jewish organizations throughout Silicon Valley. Michelle Nathanson, Director of Development for The Jewish Federation of Silicon Valley, praised this visible milestone in our journey, and recognized Beth David s role as an institution and as a source of many of the larger community s most active and creative leaders in bringing leadership, planning, vision, and foresight to the larger Jewish community. Dan Skilken, whose leadership of the project has contributed significantly to its success, recalled a meeting two years prior with Sandy Mayer and David Hoffman, who asked him to join a committee to remodel the courtyard. Turning his fellow congregants into visionaries, Dan proposed a remodel of the entire building. The Next 50 Project had begun. Thanks to the energy of Board members and key congregants as well as the power of the concept itself the project received commitments and donations of $6.2 million in six months! Fundraising Chair Bonnie Slavitt
7 7 Moore was acknowledged for her leadership in coordinating the Jewish Conversations with congregants which led to the generous support the synagogue quickly received. The new facility will encompass 6600 square feet, and is described by Dan as the expansion of our spiritual home and living faith carried out by community. Some of the exciting new features of the new facility will include a 40-foot high rotunda with a glass roof, and a kotel built with Jerusalem stone, as well as prayers submitted by congregants to be embedded in the wall. In addition, plans call for the building of a new endowment to maintain this legacy. Noting that it takes good partners to achieve this dream, Dan acknowledged architect Joel Karr of WK Design, whose remodeling of Congregation Beth Jacob in Redwood City impressed Skilken and the Next 50 Committee. Karr, along with Bob Burns and Nick Bryson of Bryson Burns Construction, participated in the symbolic groundbreaking of a plot of grass near the synagogue entrance, along with the synagogue s past and present rabbis (including Rabbi Pressman s predecessor Rabbi Jerry Danzig), with earlier rabbis also acknowledged by name. Sandy Mayer, a member of the Next 50 Committee and the organizer of the groundbreaking event, was praised for her tireless efforts in helping shape the project and for organizing the groundbreaking event. Father José Galang, Pastor of the neighboring Church of the Ascension (which for many years provided additional worship space for Beth David members during the Jewish High Holy Days), gave the closing benediction, extending warmest congratulations and prayerful wishes, and praising the congregation for its commitment, as a people of peace, to create a place for prayer, worship, and peace one people together.
8 8 JYEP Students Help Break Ground and Saying Goodbye to the Building JYEP students in hard hats partook in the CBD Ground Breaking event. They sang Am Ehad One Nation, an Israeli song of friendship and tolerance within the Jewish nation. Representatives of each class participated in digging out the first shovels of earth. Two students shared their Prayer for the Community, and finally, the favorite part, drawing/scribbling/writing farewell messages in the school hallway!
9 9 Congregation Beth David Micro Communities - Havurot What is a Havurah? A Havurah is a group of couples or families or up to 20 individuals who get together on a regular basis in members' homes to study together, to socialize and to celebrate Jewish life. All members of the Havurah make a commitment to the group to meet regularly. What is the Advantage of a Havurah? A Havurah is an excellent way to become acquainted with others who have similar interests and are at similar stages of life. For years CBD members have found that by joining a Havurah they have developed an extended family at CBD. Havurah members can be counted on to both celebrate lifecycle events together and when necessary, provide comfort and support at difficult times. What Kinds of Things does a Havurah Do? It's up to you! Your group can enjoy a Shabbat dinner together, have a Hanukkah party, build a Sukkah, even go camping if you're so inclined. Each Havurah determines the types of activities it wants. Some involve children, some do not. You can ask one of our Rabbis to attend a meeting to discuss a variety of topics related to Jewish life. The Havurah chair, Ziva Fishman, Rabbi Alexander and mentors from existent havurot are available to help with ideas. How is a Havurah Formed? After returning a completed Havurah application, you will be "matched up" with others who have similar interests, backgrounds and requests. At the first meeting of your new Havurah, a Rabbi and /or the Havurah chair will be there to help break the ice, to explain about how a Havurah functions and to give programming ideas. At this meeting you will be able to get an initial idea of whether this havurah match up feels right to you. If so, GREAT! If not, we will work toward finding you just the right havurah dynamic for you. What if I Don't Like Everyone in My Group? In any group of that size, there may very well be one or two you can't seem to get to know. The best advice is to stick with it! You'll be surprised what can happen over time. Some of the CBD Havurot have been together for 30 years! If it's just not working out though, you can speak to the Havurah chair or Rabbi Alexander about your options. CBD Lean In Circle What do you aspire to achieve? Come share your dreams and we will plan together to make them your reality.
