RABBI’S CORNER
Shabbat, Parshat Chayei Sarah
Dear Young Israel Families,
A few weeks ago, I was appointed to
be a chaplain for the East Brunswick Police
Department. As such, this past week, I was
invited to deliver the invocation at the annual
Police Awards Ceremony. It was particularly
meaningful because the EBPD recognized the
efforts of the officers and personnel who were
first at the scene at last year’s tragic accident
that took the lives of Ari and Sari Horowitz z’l. I,
together with Harris and Hadar Bram, were able
to personally hand the awards to the recipients
and thank them for their efforts.
Too often we view police officers as
the “bad guys” who give us tickets. Being
involved with the East Brunswick Police
Department has given me a little glimpse into
the lives and work of the dedicated men and
women who serve our community. When you
have the opportunity, I would like to encourage
you to take a moment and thank the police
officers for their service. They are truly devoted
people who put their life on the line to make a
big difference in our community!
Best wishes for a Shabbat Shalom,
Rabbi Jay Weinstein

Dear YIEB Community,
We wanted to take this opportunity to remind everyone of the MANY Adult Education classes that are currently being offered at
YIEB. Taking the time to study Torah during the week can really help infuse meaning & spirituality into the daily routine. Also, it allows
you to connect with others and of course, all YIEB classes are free of charge! Each class is open to participants of varied learning
backgrounds and allows you the opportunity to just “jump in” even if you have not attended previously. So, take a look at the list below and
find a class to join! Additionally, please remember that our YIEB Beit Medrash is stocked with an array of Seforim that might be of interest to
you. If you have any questions or suggestions or if you’re looking for a one on one charvusa, please feel free to contact either of us.
Best wishes to a year filled with Talmud Torah!
