FROM RABBI MORRISON
Hakarat Ha'Tov - Recognizing The Good
Dear Congregational Family,
My last message for 5780 is Hakarat Ha'Tov - Recognizing the good. Many good people have done many good things for our shul this past year, especially during the pandemic. Their efforts are worthy of gratitude. The following groups are acknowledged in no specific order or preference.
First - all of you who have chosen to remain committed to your shul despite economic and/or emotional hardships over the last several months. You understand the importance of a synagogue like Beth Emeth needing to be strong and available 365 days a year.
Second - our lay leadership. You did not choose to lead knowing a pandemic was coming our way. You have led our community with optimism, strength, and dedication, putting in countless hours for the wellbeing of our shul.
Third - the special task forces which were assembled during this exigent circumstance. Many of you shared your expertise in terms of preparing our synagogue to function during extraordinary times.
Fourth - our office and maintenance staff. You have come into the synagogue every day during difficult times and have kept our members connected to Beth Emeth life in a variety of ways.
Fifth - our Chesed committee, which has done yeomans work in reaching out to the most vulnerable members of our congregational family.
Sixth - the group of people who have kept classes, activities and programs going on thru social media platforms.
Seventh - our regular core of daveners who have maintained daily prayer life and preserved the truest meaning of spiritual community.
I could go on and on. I apologize if I have omitted any important category of involvement over the past year. To all of you, I express Hakarat Ha'Tov. Because of you, we are able to enter the High Holy Day season favorably.
Jennifer Smuschkowitz and family on the loss of her father David Ross ז״ל

BECOME A SPONSOR
In our new norm with online Clergy led private services, Divrei Torah, Torah Readings, Cantorial Music, Rabbi Lectures and Classes, you too can also sponsor one of these weekly online live sessions in honour of your Simchas or in memory of your loved ones for a donation of $54.
Your generous sponsorship will be included in the weekly e-blast, as well as mentioned by the clergy at the beginning and end of the online live session you are sponsoring. While we are temporarily closed due to this health crisis, it is imperative we continue to keep our synagogue operating at this time thereby ensuring we are able to once again open our doors to you - our dedicated members, and to the Jewish community when it is viable to do so.
The Executive, Board and Clergy thank you for your continued support during this difficult time. Best wishes for a healthy and safe Shabbat.
