Hey folks, if you haven't already done so, this is a terrific and super easy way to support the temple.

My sincerest apologies, there will NOT be a Pizza Night tonight at the temple.

Please just plan on the regular Shabbat Service at 7pm.

🍞🍞 Let there be Bread.

To send a email specifically to Konstantine Anthony, who is responsible for the proposal, please use [email protected]

Here is the wording of the petition, the PDF link to which can be found in the pinned post:

TEMPLE BETH EMET OF BURBANK 600 N. Buena Vista Street ● Burbank, California 91505 PHONE(818) 843-4787 ● FAX (818) 557-7240 e-mail [email protected] ● www.templebethemet.com

I, the undersigned, having lived/worked in Burbank, believe that given the complex Middle East situation, any statement referring to the Hamas-Israel war would be premature and not in the best interest of the city. I have an additional concern for the safety and security of our local synagogues and the Jewish community. Therefore, I wish to make an appeal to the Burbank City Council to dismiss the proposed cease-fire resolution.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]

If you cannot access it for any reason, please reach out to Rabbi Mark and he can email you a copy. Please feel free to share this to anyone who may be interested.

Thank you for your time.

From our current Temple President, Ira Goldstein:

It is with great sadness that I must tell you of the passing of long-time member and former Board member and Sisterhood President Fran Bernstein. Fran was always a joyful, loving, active, and dedicated part of our community.

Services will be held on this Thursday, January 25, 2024 at 2:00 PM at Hillside Memorial Park, 6001 W Centinela Ave, Los Angeles, California. The family invites everyone to share in the meal of condolence to be held at the Temple after the service.

May her memory be a blessing.
