A Message from the Rabbi

The second century rabbinic text Pirkei Avot Ethics of the Sages is a compilation of the
ethical teachings and maxims of the Rabbis of the Mishnaic period. It is a unique text in that it
deals solely with ethical and moral principles, providing a fount of wisdom for its students and a
collection of maxims and sayings on principles of proper human conduct. Although to the
present day mind these subjects are not religious, for the Jewish people, this most popular
Talmudic tractate is holy and is studied during the summer months by sage and novice alike.
The second chapter of the text quotes Rabbi Johanan ben Zakkai who taught Go and see
which is a good path of life to which one should cleave. His student, Rabbi Eliezer said a
generous eye meaning one who is optimistic and hopeful and who sees good in everyone. A
good friend one who is responsible, someone you can count on. Rabbi Jose said a good
neighbor one who is caring; one who advocates on behalf of the community, supports it and
sustains it. Rabbi Simeon said one who has vision a person with wisdom, with foresight and
the ability to discern the best way of moving forward; one who acts purposefully. Rabbi Elazar
said one who has a good heart one who puts aside their own interests and seeks the welfare
of others. Rabbi Johanan concluded all of my students suggested noble virtues and lofty
qualities but Rabbi Elazars suggestion a good heart encompasses them all.
Our Guest of Honor our dear friend our guide and leader the pillar of our congregation
and most esteemed and beloved member Harold Anfang mirrors the qualities and traits of
character suggested by each of Rabbi Johanans students. Harold, in serving as treasurer of our
congregation for many years, has seen to the fiscal health of our congregation. He is generous
with his substance and time. He attends services unfailingly and is in the office on weekends
and evenings to make sure that the shul is in order. He has provided counsel for officers and
Board members of our Congregation and I can attest to the truth that he is a source of wisdom
and guidance for clergy. The Sadie Anfang Memorial Weekends have been, not only a tribute to
the memory of his mother, Sadie Anfang, of blessed memory, a memory that Harold cherishes,
but also an opportunity to engage the spirit and stimulate the intellect with which we, as a
Congregation, have been nurtured.
Friends, the siddur put it plainly in the 19th Psalm ayn omer vayn devarim words do not
suffice and no tribute could do justice to how we feel about Harold; how blessed we are and
how grateful we need to be, that the path that Rabbi Johanan described is a path that brought
Harold to us.
We wish Harold health and well being as well as arikhut yamim length of days with
appreciation from a most grateful congregation.

Rabbi David Gaffney

A Message from the President

10 Sivan 5775
1 June 2015
Dear Friends:
Serving as CSFAs president for the past two years has been a privilege. Thank you all for your
support, rachmones on me, and dedication to our shul. CSFA is facing several important
changes and I urge you to give your full support to Rabbi Schwartz, Rabbi Gaffney and Russ
Winer.
Shaun and I want to thank each and every one of you for your friendship and support through
the years. Also, thank you for the patience and kindness extended to Rachel, Jacob, and Josie.
CSFA truly was our home away from home and we will miss all of you.
When it comes to decisions about our kehila, Harold Anfang always uses the framework Is it
best for the shul? when making a decision. While working with Harold, we have evaluated
rabbinical candidates, chazanim for holidays and Shabbat, building plans, guest speakers,
contractual issues, and much more. If he had a personal preference, and it conflicted with what
he thought was best for the shul, he always sided with what he thought was best for the shul.
Always.
May Harolds generosity to CSFA in terms of time, means, and devotion serve as an inspiration
to all of us in the years to come.
Mazel Tov Harold.

LChaim yall!

G-d full of mercy who dwells on high

Protector of widows and father for the fatherless
Grant perfect rest on the wings of Your Divine Presence
In the lofty abode of the holy, pure and valiant
Who shine as the brightness of the heavens
To the souls of our brothers and sisters,
Six million Jewish men, women, and children.
They gave up their lives in order to sanctify Gods name.
Because we are at one with their memory
We pray for the elevation of their souls
Their resting place shall be in the Garden of Eden.
Therefore, shall the Master of mercy care for them
Under the protection of His wings for all time
And bind their souls in the bond of everlasting life.
O Earth! Do not conceal their blood
And let there not be a resting place for their cry.
In their merit shall the remnant of Israel
Return to its rightful place
And as for the holy ones, their righteousness
Shall be in front of the Lord as an everlasting memory.
They will come in peace and will rest in peace.
They will meet their rightful destiny at the end of days
and let us say Amen.
