THE BULLETIN September - October 2017 Elul - Tishrei - Cheshvan 5777
A Chavurah is a group of people sharing common interests and values who meet
outside of the temple for social events and friendship. Temple Emanuel is hoping to
facilitate Chavurot as a way to promote Jewish community in a digital age.
A Chavurah will consist of 18-20 people, matched by demographics and interests.
One rotational person in the group will organize the get-togethers.
During High Holy Days services, you will receive a Chavurah Profile Card so you can
rank your areas of interest.
Please join us for a Chavurah Kick-off event
When: October 29 at 5:30 PM
Where: Camel City B-B-Q
701 Liberty Street
Winston-Salem, NC
Cost: Free
RSVP: Click to RSVP via ChaverWeb or
on the Chavurah Profile Card.
HIGH HOLY DAYS
Wishing all a L’Shanah Tovah - a Happy New Year.
The start of the Jewish year takes us from reflecting (Selichot) to rejoicing
(Rosh HaShanah) to repenting (Yom Kippur) to celebrating (Sukkot) to one
last day of gathering (Shemini Atzeret). The informational and inspirational
High Holy Day mailer contains all the service times and program details.
This document was mailed to your home and emailed to your inbox.
We look forward to greeting you and wishing you L’Shanah Tovah.

The Board does not meet in July.
The following actions were taken by the Board of Governors during the
August 2017 meeting:
● The Board introduced themselves to each other.
● Reviewed financials and the new membership commitment pledge structure.
● Voted to fill two Board positions left vacant by 2 sitting board members mov-
ing to the Executive Committee. Based on recommendations made by the
Nominating Committee, Temple President Felice Brenner asked the Board to
approve Rona Klein and Andy Meltzer to complete the final year of Jennifer
Grosswald and Evan Friedel's terms.
Please help us find a new staff member for Temple Emanuel. We are
hiring a receptionist to work Mondays and Fridays, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.,
freeing up Temple Administrator, Cynthia Silber, to work away from the
"glass bowl" of our lobby. A few developments led to our decision to
add this position.
1. As of last year, our ever-dependable and long-term bookkeeper,
Diane Deal, works three days a week vs. four, freeing up office
space and budget for a receptionist position.
2. Cynthia's duties continue to expand so that she needs more time
to work quietly vs. answer the phone and greet visitors.
3. We moved the cabinetry from the gift shop to the front lobby for
increased visibility of Sisterhood gift shop products.
4. We have converted the old gift shop space into an office for
Diane mid-week and Cynthia on Mondays and Fridays.
Please click for a PDF version of the job description. Feel free to share
the job description with anyone who might be interested.
Thank you for your help and please feel free to call (336) 255-1643 or
email Felice Brenner with any questions or comments. Applicants
should email resume and contact information to Felice Brenner.

PRESIDENT FELICE BRENNER Who Are We?
My dad used to tell me what happens to people who assume.
So, imaging that children might read this, I was feeling like quite the nitwit when we realized
that we were basing temple decisions on assumptions about our membership. Understanding
what happens to temple leaders like those referenced above, board member Lee Chaden
helped push us to conduct a demographic survey and compare it against some old numbers
so that we could look at trends. Alas—there was no former survey found. But, thanks to some
hard work from Cynthia in the office, we found some surprising trends and below, I’ve listed
the highlights and what I call the “bottom line” of what these numbers mean. It’s a snapshot
of who we are and I think it’s fascinating.
Before you read down, please know that these are more than fun facts. Rabbi Mark, Courtney, Colleen, and our
Board of Governors have already responded to these trends with a variety of initiatives including an engage-
ment committee for membership follow-up and contacts, better connections for singles and young families, a
new Chavarah program, additional time and funding for programs on effective aging, and a reboot of our life-
long learning efforts. We’ve finished assuming and started being strategic about member engagement and be-
coming more “relational” and relevant to our congregants.
Of course, we have a lot more to do so stay tuned to the Wednesday e-mail, the bulletin, or join us at any Tem-
ple activity. You’ll see how we’re adapting to engage and connect our members to each other and Judaism in
meaningful and lasting ways. Ask me or any board member to learn more and please feel free to share YOUR
ideas so that we can better serve our Jewish community.
Wishing you a sweet, healthy, and happy new year—L’ Shanah Tovah!
Felice Highlights of 2017 Temple Emanuel of Winston-Salem Demographic Survey
Membership Units are Steady and Strong
As of this summer, we have 279 member units—about the same number for the past 15 years under Rabbi Mark
Cohn’s leadership.
About 25% are single adults, 8% are associate or affiliate members and the rest are two adult households or
families. We had no student or intern members last year.
Our Membership is Aging
30% of member units have children high school age or younger
70% of member units are adult-only households
62% of members are over age 43
44% of members are eligible for Mavens (are over age 55)
Jewish families in our Temple community are having fewer children. And fewer young families are joining our Temple
This is a national trend
The average number of children per household (under 19) is 1.67
Families in our Temple community are less motivated to send their children to religious school. Preschool enrollment is
steady with many Jewish families
2015-2016: 73 children enrolled in religious school, across 48 families
2016-2017: 65 children enrolled in religious school, across 43 families
We had 9 B’nei Mitzvah students in 2016-2017 vs. 13 in 2012-2013
42 children enrolled in preschool across 38 families, 3 are Temple members and 13 have at least one Jewish
parent, but are not Temple members
Temple Auxiliary groups are increasingly critical to our membership and other Jews in our community
Also part of national trend
Brotherhood: 46 members, must be Temple member to join
Sisterhood: 105 members, 3 are not Temple members (3%)
Mavens: 73 members, 12 are not Temple Members (15%)

RABBI MARK D. COHN
The High Holy Days are Coming!!
And just like that, the Summer is over. It’s funny how the other three seasons of the
year don’t get quite the play that Summer does. And I understand why – largely
because of school summer vacation – but still I’m always amazed how there is this big
build up to the Summer and then re-entry to ‘regular’ life on the back side.
And so here we are – which means only one thing in a synagogue: THE HIGH HOLY
DAYS ARE COMING! And thank God they are coming because it gives us another
chance to check in with one another in a big way – through prayer, song, meditation,
study, and more! Think about those wonderful new machzorim and special Yom Kippur Afternoon or
Shabbat Shuvah programming as well as the fabulous Board Oneg on the night of Rosh HaShanah. Not
everyone will come to every service or program and not every program and service will speak magically
to us all. But the High Holy Days are a time for us to reset, renew, and re-envision what has been and
what is possible.
Our biblical ancestors called the first day of the seventh month, Yom Teruah (Day of Shofar Blasts) and
we call it Rosh HaShanah (Head of the Year). For our ancestors it was a time of calling out with the
shofar in order to remember the covenant with God, forged on the very mountain where the Temple
would come to stand. For us it is a time of hearing the echo of ages past through the voice of the shofar
and allowing that sound to RESOUND within our hearts and souls to propel us into the New Year with
strength and might.
Our biblical ancestors also called the 1st day of the seventh month, Yom Zikkaron (Day of Remembering).
For on that day we are to remember the covenant, remember our misdeeds, and remember the
goodness in our nature to return, repent, and renew. Our tradition calls on us to be mindful on a regular
basis. We are to pay attention to every act we do – from the moment we awaken to the moment we
fall to sleep. That intentionality and mindfulness can help us lead meaningful and enriching lives for
ourselves and everyone around us.
May these days leading up to entering into 5778 be filled with calm and reflection, repentance and
forgiveness, rejoicing and reconnecting.
B’Shalom,
Rabbi Mark
“A Priest and a Rabbi Walk into a Bar …” It’s Torah and Testament on Tap! And that’s no joke!

COURTNEY ANTHONY, DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION
Live from New York: It’s Temple Emanuel !
I have always loved summer: sunny weather, travel, and the beach are some of my
favorite things. Since becoming Director of Education at Temple Emanuel, I have
also loved the summertime stretch of relatively quiet time to plan and get excited for
each new year of Religious School and Lifelong Learning. I work on developing our
curriculum, planning programs, and – very importantly – cleaning my office (it’s
usually in quite a state after nine months of constant activity during the school year).
This year, I tackled the very enjoyable summer project of planning our upcoming Havayah (grades 9-
12) trip to New York City. When I saw the Havayah students at Shabbat services in July and August,
they had lists of questions for me. Are we definitely going to Ellis Island? (Yes.) Which Broadway shows
are we going to see? (Come From Away and The Band’s Visit.) And – this was the most frequent and
urgent question – Are we going to eat at Katz’s Deli? (Of course!)
During our first Havayah trip to New York back in 2015, the students loved the museums, tours, and
theatre. Most of all, though, they loved being Jewish in New York City. At our regular Sunday classes,
the kids still talk about H&H Bagels on Shabbat morning, Katz’s Deli on Sunday afternoon, and the
astonishing number of synagogues we passed while walking around the city. For some, it was the first
time they had experienced that kind of immersion in a large, urban Jewish community. The memories
we made together will last a lifetime, for the students and for Rabbi Mark and me. We could not have
had a more meaningful group bonding or Jewish educational experience.
Traveling together is important for the teens, who are creating friendships and beginning to form their
Jewish identities as young adults. However, we don’t stop growing and learning once we reach
adulthood. Our newly expanded Lifelong Learning programming offers adults opportunities to ex-
plore and engage with Jewish religion, history, and culture. This year, we are bringing back popular
Lifelong Learning programs such as the 92nd Street Y series and Jewish literary study. We’re also intro-
ducing an exciting travel component that will include a day trip to Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello on
April 8, 2018 and… you guessed it… a three-day New York City travel experience from June 15-17,
2018! After all, why should the teens get to have all the travel fun?!
Our congregational trip to New York will be open to all of our members – singles, couples, and fami-
lies. Everyone is welcome! The itinerary will feature cultural experiences such as the Lower East Side
Tenement Museum and a Broadway show, as well as delicious culinary experiences such as the
aforementioned Katz’s Deli. More details, including registration information, will be available soon. In
the meantime, I hope that you will save the dates, and let me know if you have any great recommen-
dations for places to see and food to eat! While three days is a limited time and we won’t be able to
see and do everything worthwhile in New York (that would take a lifetime!), the goal is to fit in as
much learning and fun as we can. I am open to input, and would love to hear from you.
I look forward to traveling together, and to another year of shared Jewish growth and experiences in
Religious School and at Lifelong Learning. As much as I really do love summer, I am now ready to
jump into this new academic year, with all its promise and potential!

REFUGEE RESETTLEMENT IN WINSTON-SALEM
The refugee resettlement project of Temple Emanuel, in partnership with Knollwood Baptist
Church, has assisted four refugee families, comprising 22 individuals, who are living in
Winston-Salem, three from Syria and one from the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
We are grateful for the outpouring of support to assist our families and those who will follow
them. Volunteers have helped with so many needs as members of Good Neighbor Teams
or by pitching in on an occasional project as needed. Special thanks to The Shalom Project
who opened their Clothing Closet. Temple Emanuel Preschool provided scholarships for
Summer Fun and the new Preschool term. Please keep those monetary donations coming
(noting “Refugee Resettlement Program” in the memo field). Click to make your online
donation via ChaverWeb for unusual or emergency refugee resettlement expenses.
Volunteers are needed to drive to drive young Ahmadi to Preschool on Tuesday and Thursday at 9AM and return him
home at 12 noon. Please call Herb Spindel to sign up (704) 301-1714. The family lives in The Ledges Apartments off of
Peters Creek Parkway near Academy Street, approximately 2 miles from temple.
Volunteers are also needed to drive to drive family members to medical and administrative appointments as well as
trips for food and personal needs. Please email Jean Fromson if you have time to provide transportation and welcome
our new community members.
We are going to try to form another Good Neighbor Team in the fall. If you are interested in being a part of a Good
Neighbor Team, please email Mike Green.

MOORE ELEMENTARY FOOD PANTRY
Congregants generously provide 66 backpacks for students Thanks to the amazing generosity of our Temple Emanuel and Highland Presbyterian congregants, this
successful joint project surpassed our goals and provided 66 backpacks full of school supplies for the
Moore School students whose parents shop in our Food Pantry. Both purchases of supplies and your
generous monetary donations contributed to the project. Thanks to the Temple & Highland volunteers
who spent 4 hours sorting and bagging supplies. TODAH RABAH THANK YOU
The kids had huge smiles, as big as their backpacks, and the parents offered grateful thanks, as
temple volunteers helped the students begin their new school year with a backpack containing
grade-specific supplies of crayons, markers or colored pencils, dry-erase markers, highlighters, pencils,
erasers, a pencil box or pouch, glue sticks, notebooks, folders, loose-leaf binders & paper,
composition books and index cards.
In addition, hand sanitizer, tissues & zip-lock bags will be distributed to the teachers. We are also
grateful to Fain Office Supply for their donation of several boxes of materials for the students and teachers.
From Bob Schwartz, Temple Emanuel’s program co-director The Moore Food Pantry has gone paperless with electronic registration. The data collected will allow our clients to
use any food pantry in Forsyth County and will be a valuable resource when a child graduates from Moore School
and the family is no longer eligible to shop at our pantry. Thanks to the leadership of Lois Miller who coordinated our
hugely successful annual backpack school supply drive. Moore Magnet Elementary School has a new principal,
Adam Dovico, and I had a successful meeting with him on August 2. We will be recruiting new families starting in
September and will continue to serve families who are food insecure.
Our pantry and temple were honored to receive the Fain Social Justice Award. We are now in our 4th
year of operation and this award is a reflection of the collaborative effort with Temple Emanuel,
Highland Presbyterian Church, the Second Harvest Food Bank, and Moore Magnet Elementary School.

Max is a 7th grade honors student at Forsyth Country Day School where his favorite subject is math, and
he plays cello in the orchestra. He plays soccer, basketball and baseball for school with baseball being
his absolute favorite sport. He also loves traveling, beating his father at x-box games, and rooting for the

We thank Rabbi Mark Cohn, Ms. Courtney Anthony, Mr. Bobby Stern and Mr. Mike Backfield for their assistance in help-
ing Max in preparing for this special day.

two years. Sophie began playing soccer at age 4 and currently plays for the Twin City Classic Blue
04 team as a consistent defender. In addition, she swims, plays basketball and soccer for Summit.
Sophie loves to help her school and community. She has volunteered at Cook Literacy Model
School, participated in set design at Summit and has volunteered at the Mistletoe Run. During the
summer, Sophie swims for the Sherwood Sharks and attends Camp Poyntelle Lewis Village in Pennsyl-
vania. During her free time she enjoys hanging out at the beach and pool, laughing with friends
and family
We are excited to share this special day with all of our family and friends and invite the Temple congregation to cele-
brate with us at services and Kiddush Luncheon.
Zoë Friedel - October 28, 2017 Zoë Morgan Friedel will joyfully celebrate her bat mitzvah on October 28, 2017. She is the daughter of
Evan and Erika Friedel and the younger sister of Alexander “Xander” Friedel. Her proud grandparents
are Doris Kendrick and the late Bryant Kendrick of Winston-Salem, NC, and Dorothy and Walter Friedel
of Denville, NJ.
Zoë is an 8th grader at The Downtown School, and she is incredibly passionate about the visual arts.
She embraces creating art in all media-- from drawing anime characters, to weaving tapestries, to
wheel-throwing pottery, to creating pieces at the Olio Glassblowing Studio. Her favorite things include
reading, swimming, playing piano, snuggling her dog Caroline, and walking the neighborhood pugs.
Zoë and her family wish to extend a very special thank-you to Rabbi Mark Cohn, Ms. Courtney Anthony,
Mr. Mike Backfield, and Mr. Bobby Stern for their heartfelt support, guidance, and encouragement over the last year.
The Friedel Family eagerly looks forward to sharing this momentous occasion and Kiddush luncheon with friends, loved
ones, and the entire Temple Emanuel congregation.

PRESCHOOL
Temple Emanuel Preschool had a wild and wonderful
summer. We had 7 weeks of art and science
activities, with plenty of time for outdoor pool and
playground time as well. Our only complaint was it was too hot!
Now we are back to our regular school year. All classrooms are at full
enrollment. We are settling back in, and look forward to our High Holy
Days. We do tons of art and craft activities, and learn about this special
time of year with Rabbi Mark and our teachers.
