Ruth intermarried, too!
At Shir Shalom, we would
make her part of our
family . . . and our new building,
which begins construction on Aug. 28!
Like Ruth, there was Moses's wife. And Queen Esther's
husband. Intermarried couples and Jews by choice have
existed throughout history. At Shir Shalom, they're part
of our family. And our congregation. We welcome
intermarried couples and converts with open arms,
open minds, and open hearts.
And Shir Shalom is sensitive to the needs of individuals.
Our membership reflects the diversity of today's society.
Families, young and old; singles with or without children;
and blended families—as well as intermarrieds and
converts. Each member is an important part of the
special mix that is Shir Shalom.
• It's also why we have once a week Hebrew school (on Monday,
Wednesday, or Sunday). Because we realize that children and
families have so many commitments in their lives.
• That's why we guarantee single Bar or Bat Mitzvah dates
to each child who enrolls in our school. So that child
knows that he or she is special. And feels a sense of
individual accomplishment.

*And why Shir Shalom has a tish, a question and answer period,
at the conclusion of every service. So that personal concerns
and questions about the mysteries of our faith can be addressed.

Because of our demographic make-up, Shir Shalom
is sensitive to the needs of all our families. As a matter of
fact, we've set aside a memorial wall in our Carole and
Henry Frank Interfaith Garden that is dedicated to the
memories of our members' relatives and friends—Jewish
and not Jewish.

Temple Shir Shalom is not for everybody. But, if you
believe in individuality, if you want to feel like part of a
family ... and a dream, if you want to experience the
beginning of a temple's history—and don't want that
temple to be too big or too small, but just right, what better
time to become a part of the Shir Shalom family?
For membership information or if you want to experience
Shir Shalom personally by coming to our prospective
members' tea, please call Carol Ogusky, Rick Smith,
or Rabbi Dannel Schwartz at 737-8700.
