High Holy Days with Cantor Estherleon Schwartz
HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT THE ELEVENTH COMMANDMENT?
To Our Dear Friends and Shabbos Buddies,
High
Holy Days are almost here. This year we are blessed to have the Matrix Theater
available for services.
Have
you heard about the Eleventh Commandment?
Cantor Estherleon wants to be sure everyone knows the Commandment
provides that services will only be complete with your attendance and shared
blessings.
The
doors are open to all. Your heartfelt
donation of thanks for the Blessings You Receive from these Services are so
necessary for Cantor Estherleon to continue to make them available to the
community and to the unaffiliated.
High
Holy Days, Friday night Shabbat Buddy services, and now implementing in
schools: Gratitude Buddy Circle - a long term strategy to dispel bullying,
anti-Semitism, discrimination, and hate is our main focus as outreach programs
of our non-profit Beth Shirah Congregation.
All of this is not possible without your help.
Kindly
help replenish the dwindling supplies at the Los Angeles Food banks and bring
Cans of food. Non-perishables are
appreciated.
Coming
together at this time, showing you care, will bring back the fellowship of our
community. Looking forward to pray together for hope and action.
May
you be blessed with Shalom...
All
my best,
Cantor
Estherleon Schwartz

Friday Night Shabbat at Lenny’s 1st Year Anniversary!
Dear Shabbos Buddies,
Well, we don't
know where the time went, but this Friday is the one year anniversary since we
brought Friday Night Shabbos to Lenny's Deli.
It's been a wonderful and gratifying year in which the Shabbos Dinners
have become a unique experience and the talk of the town. It's been an overwhelming success thanks to
our Shabbos Buddies. We have continued to grow and meet new friends who have
become loyal Shabbos Buddies now filling Lenny's Shabbot Room each week to
share and enjoy the friendship of the family that you have created to
experience the blessings and the joy of the Shabbos Dinner. We look forward to the next year and for our
Shabbos family to continue growing until we are spilling out of Lenny's Shabbot
Room.
Please join
with us this Friday, June 6th to celebrate the closing of the first year and to
welcome in the start of another year of Friday nights together and hopefully
many more.
RESERVATIONS
ARE REQUESTED. Please contact me at
either 818.783.8824 or at this email address.
Regrets are not necessary.
A VERY
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Shabbat will
continue at Lenny's Deli Shabbot Room every Friday EXCEPT the last Friday of
each month. This will be the schedule
until further notice.
We look
forward to you joining us this Friday.
Shalom!
Gail

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CREATING A NEW HISTORY ROOTED IN UNITY AND PEACE
Friday, May 23rd, 2014
Their website banner reads: “FHS fosters a community of diversity and potential!!! FHS will lead Los Angeles schools in graduation rate….” – these are the children of today, uniting cultures to help dispel discrimination and bullying for today and tomorrow.
On Thursday, May 22nd Cantor Estherleon Schwartz visited Fairfax High School in Los Angeles where she shared her story as a child Holocaust survivor and showed students how to instill forgiveness, unity and peace through coming together and creating a gratitude circle.
The Gratitude Circles project was created by Cantor Schwartz as a movement to bring a voluntary program to schools that aim to connect children with one another regardless of culture or faith. Cantor Schwartz believes that by the children holding hands and sharing gratitude with their classmates, bonds will be created and strengthened by their commonalities. The result could be that by overriding differences – diversity and uniqueness will be celebrated and enjoyed.
Attending the multi-media event at Fairfax High School was Assistant Principal, Mark Ross, who said that he found the presentation, “interesting.” Also in attendance were Shabbos Buddies, Leonard Delpit, Executive Director of The University of South Central; Gail Blair, Executive Director for Cantor Schwartz, and, Ivor Pyros, Creative Director for Cantor Schwartz.
“Cantor Schwartz provided two presentations to students, the first was for 3 classes and the second was for 2. Almost all students participated in the holding of the Torah as well as being wrapped in the Shawl of Many Colors (which symbolizes our world’s diversities), and ended with the formation of gratitude circles.”
“The kids were great,” said Cantor Schwartz, “They made me feel welcomed and one of them.”
As a thank you for her efforts, Assistant Principle Ross honored Cantor Schwartz as a graduate and alumni of Fairfax High by presenting her with a class pin.
