Re[2]: High Holiday Services

[richard_wolpoe <richard_wolpoe...>]

     Dear George,
        Sorry for subjecting the list, you didn't post your email address.
     
     First of all, I guess I'm flattered to have been imitated.  Myabe I've 
     started a new trend?!
     
     Second, while  Beth Am is one block OFF-BROADWAY we are on BROADWAY. 
     And you cannot compare OFF-BROADWAY with the real thing! <smile>
     
     Third, re: yomtovdik;  I beg forgiveness as wells as I get to disgree. 
     Yomim Noraim are a perfect time to beg forgiveness and perhaps an 
     oppurtune time to demand it too.  So, George, if your reviews have 
     offended anyone, it's a perfect time to seek their forgiveness! 
     <smile>
     
     Foruth, despite the absolutely Purim-line tenor of this email, I 
     seriously wish you all a Good New Year and offer my apologies for 
     anyone on the list I might have offended during the past year.  
     Sometimes my emails "sound" oh so much more serious than intended.

With no disrespect to Richard intended, allow me to extend the same invitation 
to anyone in the Heights-Inwood area looking for a Reform congregation to daven 
by (one that is more traditional-minded than you might expect, by the way). We 
are Beth Am, the People's Temple, located at 178 Bennett Avenue, one block west 
of Broadway at 189th Street. Our services feature a wonderful opera-trained 
cantorial soloist, Beverly Myers, and an ardent (and maybe even talented -- not 
for me to say, since I'm a member) volunteer choir, performing an interesting 
mix of traditional and new music. Our schedule of HH services is:
     
Sunday eve., Sept. 20, 7 p.m.
Monday morning, Sept. 21 9:30 a.m., children's services at 9 and 10:15 and a 
free learner's service at 11:15 a.m.
Kol Nidre, 6:30 p.m. Tues. Sept. 29
Wednesday, Sept. 30, 9:30 a.m. with the same schedule of children's and 
learners' service.
     
I wouldn't post this to the list except that I felt obliged since it's our 
neighborhood also. :-)
And if anyone on the list is angry over my review of their record in Jewish 
Week, this is their chance to see me in person and tell me to my face (although 
that wouldn't be very yuntifdike, would it?).
     
Shana Tova and best wishes to all for a creative, prosperous and healthy 5759
