Mazel Tov to Jackie & Andrew Klaber on the birth of their daughter Eliza Ann Klaber, and to Jason Carter, and Mona & Stephen Klaber on the birth of their granddaughter. Eliza’s Hebrew name is עַלִּיזָה, which means “joy” and is in tribute to her paternal grandmother, Annalise (Anne) Klaber (1923 - 2020), who was born in Germany and fled during WWII to build a better life in America.
Happy Birthday to Nissim Sade.
Refuah Sh'leima to Leslie Levinson who is back in the hospital and best wishes to David Chu, Brina and Malka Chu.
From Jeff: On Chol haMoed I visited the Brooklyn Botanic Garden and made my way to the Cherry Esplanade in the center of the garden. I arrived at the moment when a five and a half minute meditative composition for seven vibraphones is broadcast every hour on the hour. To my delight, the interpretative signage entitled the music as "loved." by composer and Stanton member, Michael Gordon and percussionist, David Cossin. Michael's work marks the one-year anniversary of New York City's pandemic shutdown. The delightfully haunting piece was created for the Brooklyn Botanic Garden to honor those we have lost.
"Like the ringing of fractured bells, loved marks the memory of those just recently lost. As we walk down the tree-lined path that just months ago exploded with blossoms, the music moves into the natural space in waves of resonating metals, silences, and an accelerated harmony." - Michael Gordon

Building Community Together
For many, remembering Yahrzeits, Birthdays, and Anniversaries are the most personal and meaningful dates on our calendar. They connect us to our deepest emotions.
The Stanton Street Shul would like to help you remember these important dates. As we live busy lives, many of us would appreciate being reminded in advance of upcoming Yahrzeits. In the future, and upon request, we would like to hold more morning and evening services for members to say kaddish.
We can automatically generate personalized greetings and reminders once you enter your dates onto your Shul account page. If you prefer, you may bring a list of your Yahrzeits, birthday and anniversary dates to Shul and we will gladly update your account for you. If you don't know the dates of your yahrzeits, please send name of loved one and time/date of death to Jill.
This is one more way of building a stronger, caring and loving community.
COVID Protocols for In-Person Shul
Many of us are committed to attend Shabbat services throughout this pandemic. We respect all who have decided to remain at home and look forward to the time when we will reunite under the Stanton roof.
During these frigid Shabbatot, we turn up the heaters and, per, CDC ventilation maintain a healthy airflow by opening the front doors, the rear doors of the sanctuary, and the rear doors of the balcony. To retain as much heat as possible, we have decided not to open the side windows. We wear masks and maintain social distance.
Come to shul only if you feel healthy, and please dress in seasonally appropriate attire.
