Shemini Atzeret / Simchat Torah

Date Added |
As we conclude our holiday season with the joyous and festive Simchat Torah, we cannot help but question the appropriateness of celebrating as we simultaneously mark one year from last year's horrific Shemini Atzeret attack.
Simchat Torah is a celebration of the Torah's completion and beginning, and could theoretically be separated from recent and current events, but that's not quite how we can - our should - function emotionally. At the same time, we consider Yom Tov celebration to be an obligation, especially as we model the joy we derive from Torah to our families, friends, and selves.
The answer has to be that we must try to do both. On these days we will both celebrate and mourn. This contradiction is not new to us as Jews, and can be found all over our calendar, texts, and liturgy. Of course, this is probably a year to tone down our famous (infamous) Sixth Street antics and to lean in to Simchat Torah in it's purer sense. Of course, this will only work if we have each other, so please, do everything that you can to join us and to be present.
Maybe next year's Simchat Torah be less complicated.
Gavriel Bellino, Rabbi

Post-Yom-Kippur Gratitude

Greetings Friends,
Thank You all who participated in what was a wonderful Yom Kippur.
I am grateful to our skilled cantors, Meir Shapiro and Neil Kitainik for their beautiful and perfectly-timed davening. They skillfully and precisely moved text along as they moved us, inspiring us with beautiful and thoughtful moments of prayer and song.
I also thank Modi Rosenfeld for his inspiring and amusing words, Elie Yudewitz for his ushering and gabbaing, Keshet Bellino and Naya Yudewitz for their help in setting up the sanctuary, our security team and the NYPD for keeping us safe, and Romano and his staff for their hard work in preparing and maintaining our building.
Adina Lichtman's leadership and energy were particularly inspiring. During the afternoon break, 150 sandwiches were prepared and distributed to our less-fortunate neighbors. Her devotion to the greater community is unparalleled. Adina's not-for-profit, Knock Knock Give a Sock, deserves your support. Please consider helping her to continue and expand her important altruistic vision.
At Kol Nidrei I spoke about synagogue consistency as an antidote to personal, political, and international inconsistency. If my vision spoke to you, if you have benefited from this synagogue's energy and would like to see it enlarged further, please consider participating in our Kol Nidrei Campaign. Your support is essential. I remind you that any amount helps our efforts and lifts our spirits.
Again, I thank you for your continued interest and support and wish you continued good health and a joyful holiday season. Bracha v'Hatzlacha,
Gavriel Bellino
Rabbi

Dear Friends,
Yom Kippur begins tomorrow night. Here's the short version of my appeal: Shul business is surprisingly expensive, so I need your help to continue to sustain and improve our unique synagogue. Click here to participate in the Kol Nidrei Appeal.
If you need more convincing, here is the longer version: The Sixth Street Community Synagogue is very much a locus of thoughtful, appropriate, never-judgmental, and often fun Modern Orthodox Judaism. We require your support to continue and to flourish.
We provide consistent and beautiful services, host events that attract a diverse audience, offer classes that are both rigorous and accessible, and serve delicious kiddushes, all while preserving and improving our 178 year old building. To function at this level is expensive and the income from collected membership is insufficient to cover our expenses. The upgrading of our security (both staff and hardware) post 10/7 has further complicated - and at times impeded - our ability to function at the level we would like.
As you know, this project of Teshuva - the return to our higher selves and to God - requires that we re-evaluate, re-prioritize, and then re-affirm our commitment to those things (and people) that truly matter. I hope that our synagogue is on this list of things that matter and that you are able to partner with me in its great revitalization and success.
I am grateful to you for your support,
You can click here to participate in the Kol Nidrei Appeal.
Gmar Tov,
Gavriel Bellino, Rabbi
P.S. If you need a seat for Yom Kippur, please tell me. I know a guy.
