dat Shalom Synagogue in
Farmington Hills welcomes
Bruce Pearl, head basketball
coach, University of Tennessee, on
Friday evening, April 16, as part of
SYNergy Shabbat.
Pearl fulfilled one
of his professional
dreams in July as
he led the Maccabi
USAs Open Men's
Basketball Team to
a gold medal with
a 95-86 overtime
A
Bruce Pearl
triumph, defeating
Israel at the 18th
World Maccabiah Games. For the past
five years, Pearl has presided over the
University of Tennessee basketball team.
Pearl has demonstrated a lifelong
commitment to Jewish causes and to
Israel. "Growing up in the Boston area,
Israel has been at the forefront of fam-
ily conversation ever since I was a small
kid:' he says. "My grandparents were
Orthodox and kept a kosher home as
well. I can remember that it was much
more difficult for my parents, who
endured a lot of anti-Semitism during
my childhood than what my own chil-
dren have to deal with today.
"Israel:' he adds, "is also at the
forefront and part of my daily life as
well. Our rabbi discusses Israel each
and every week at the Shabbat service
I attend with my family. And when I
open the local daily newspaper, I don't
automatically turn to the sports page.
I flip through the World section to see
if there's a story about Israel. Being
Jewish and being connected to Israel is
part of who I am:'

The program is being presented
in conjunction with the Adat Shalom
Young Adult Group and JCC Maccabi.
