"Maybe our paths will cross when this universe folds in and makes another. Maybe, at the point when all that is and all that's ever been, collapses into everything else and is remade, our paths will cross, however briefly, and our terminus become a junction. It may be a long shot. I will take it and hope and trust that our paths cross again." -Epilogue, by Oliver Tearle I recently came across this poem and, although it is few in words, it speaks volumes about journeys, relationships, and connections. Nine years ago, Moshe and I arrived in Atlanta, freshly married, and excited for the adventure ahead. What an adventure it has been. The most profound moments have been sharing Jewish connection with you, through music, through text, study, song, b'nai mitzvah, baby namings, funerals, weddings. Living the Jewish cycle of life and the Jewish calendar through you and with you has been a deep and humbling privilege. You have placed yourselves into my hands and my care. This; those moments we … [Read more...]

Letter From The Co-Chairs Welcome to the second edition of Tikkun Olam Times, a living, breathing space to inform, educate and advocate for Social Action and Justice. Since the first edition of TOT on June 9, a head-spinning number of events and decisions have occurred. Demonstrations urging racial equality swept the nation and the world. The Supreme Court determined that it is, “unlawful for an employer to fail to hire or discharge an individual … because of such individual’s race, color, religion, sex or national origin.” The Supreme Court also upheld the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. Here at home, the Georgia House and Senate passed a Hate Crimes Bill, HB426, that Governor Kemp signed into law. All of this activity while we are still in the middle of a global pandemic. Wendy Frank & Julie Mokotoff At Carnival With A Cause March 8, 2020 Against this backdrop of challenge and change, Judaism provides a constructive framework to guide our thoughts … [Read more...]

A Historic Week
Passover is weeks away, and many of us have started to make preparations to gather and share our central story of our Exodus from Egypt. (If you would like to join us for 2nd night seder, register HERE.) In Torah times, this preparation would include a journey to our nation’s capital, Jerusalem. From the four corners of Israel, our people would travel by foot to bring their sacrifices to The Temple, where they would be received by the Levite priests. Accounts of this sojourn (taken three times a year, at Passover, Shavuot and Sukhot) relay that although our ancestors were mindful that it was for a serious purpose, there also was very much an element of celebration that would occur once they were in Jerusalem. We can picture it: a city with people, tons of catching up with old friends, and meeting lots of good people who were very much like you. Last week a group of about 30 Temple Emanu-El congregants made a similar journey to our nation’s capital in Washington, DC. We were there … [Read more...]
Take Me Up from Egypt, I Have No Other Land
In the final Torah portion of the Book of Genesis, Jacob (aka Israel) delivers an ethical will to his children. Jacob's first request was to be returned to his homeland, the Land of Israel when his descendants left Egypt. This isn't the first nor the last instance of our people's connection to the land that God promised Abraham. When we describe the Jewish connection to the modern-day State of Israel, we look back 3000 years to a story like Jacob's. In life and death, our people turn toward Israel. Over the last 80+ days, we have heard wave after wave of antisemitic rhetoric that tries to displace us or divorce us from our homeland, but our Torah portion this week reminds us of our eternal connection to the Land. Jacob's insistence to return to his birthplace, even in death, reminds me of a classic Israeli song, "I Have No Other Land." The great musician Ehud Manor wrote these words in June of 1982, and it became a hit in 1986. Since then, the song has become an anthem for Jews and … [Read more...]
