Reform to Gather to Mark Isaac Wise Sabbath Today Members of the six area Reform congregations will gather 8:30 p.m. today at Temple Beth El to mark Isaac M. Wise Sabbath, a tribute to the founder of Re- form Judaism in the United States. Participating will be Temples Israel, Emanu-El, Kol Ami, Beth Jacob, Beth El and Cong. Solel. Rabbi David S. Hachen, director of the Northeast Lakes Council of the Union of American Hebrew Con- gregations, will deliver the sermon. - His topic is "10 -- A Regional Rabbi's 10th Anniversary Fantasies," a reference to the fact that 1980 marks the 10th year since the creation of the council. Rabbi Hachen, the first and only director of the region, serves as a resource ;o more than 60 temples in Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and western New York. Ordained at Hebrew Union College - Jewish In- stitute of Religion in Cin- cinnati in 1952, Rabbi Hachen has served as a Navy chaplain and in con- gregations in New York, Connecticut and Ohio. He has been a faculty member of HUC-JIR in New York and a visiting lecturer in the graduate department of the University of Cincin- nati. The annual service, which is sponsored by the Metropolitan Detroit Federation of Reform Synagogues, honors Rabbi Isaac Mayer Wise, who immigrated to the U.S. from Bohemia in 1846. In 1873, Rabbi Wise founded the Union of American Hebrew Congre- gations, which now repre- sents 730 Reform temples in the U.S. and Canada. He also created the first rabbinical school in America, the Hebrew Union College in Cincinnati, now represented by campuses in New York, Los Angeles and Jerusalem, and in 1889 or- ganized the Central Confer- ence of American Rabbis in the city of Detroit. Catholics Attend Synagogue Talk Parishoners at the St. Aloysius Roman Catholic Church in downtown De- troit learned a little bit about Passover Sunday when they attended a talk by Rabbi Noah M. Gamze at the Downtown Synagogue as part of their Palm Sun- day activities. The goodwill gesture was the joint idea of Rabbi Gamze and Fr. Russel Kohler, pastor of St. Aloysius.
