SUMMARY:Pride Shabbat
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Temple Emanuel’s Pride Shabbat! This year\, we will hear a special sermon from our Ritual Coordinator\, AJ Helman.\nSermon Topic – Both/And: Being a Proud Queer Zionist Jew in a Post-October 7 World\nMinyan Ma’or’s events in Reisman will include a D’var Torah by Reva Kasman. The drash theme will be: “Redefining Bravery: Personal and Parsha-Based Reflections for Pride Shabbat” \nAbout AJ Helman \nAJ Helman (they/them/theirs) is an educator and artist with a focus on Jewish and LGBTQ+ theater and education. After graduating from Emerson College with a BFA in Theater Education and Performance\, AJ remained in Boston\, working in the local theater and film industries as both an artist and a Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion liaison. As part of their activism and educator work\, they facilitated workshops on gender diversity in theater and spearheaded better inclusion practices for transgender employees in the film industry thanks to the support of Ryan Reynolds’ and Blake Lively’s Group Effort Initiative. AJ proudly marched with Keshet at San Francisco Pride directly following the Supreme Court’s overturning of the Defense of Marriage Act\, effectively making LGBTQ+ marriage in the United States legal. In addition to their activism and artistry\, AJ is thrilled to be a part of the Temple Emanuel staff as the Ritual Coordinator. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Selichot Service
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our beautiful Selichot services Saturday night\, September 13\, from 8:00 to 9:00\, preceded by a lovely collation generously sponsored by our Sisterhood.Selichot is about getting ready for our High Holiday season by hearing the beautiful songs\, reciting the familiar prayers\, feeling the sacred and serious mood—and sharing it all with our beloved community.In addition\, we are going to have a conversation around this question: When is a light touch the right response to a heavy world? We all know about the Coldplay moment this summer. That brief moment\, caught on camera\, destroyed careers\, reputations\, marriages\, families. Literally the opposite of light\, humorous\, or funny.Yet when Astronomer responded to this deeply painful moment\, it did so with a brief appearance by Gwyneth Paltrow\, who herself had been married to Coldplay’s lead singer\, Chris Martin\, with whom she had two children. Her words were light\, funny\, dry\, wry—and were very well received. The overwhelming reaction was that Gwyneth Paltrow’s piece landed and effectively enabled the company to move on.We will watch the clip of the Coldplay moment and Gwyneth Paltrow’s words and ask: why did it land so well\, did you have any reservations about it\, and what can it teach us about how to engage our world today? When things are heavy\, when and how do we go light? \nJoin us in Reisman Hall or via livestream here. \nView the songsheet here. \nView our service booklet here. \nView the Coldplay moment & Gwenyth Platrow’s words here. \n\n
