The implicit message: learning is sweet. This lovely tradition reminds us all of our hope: that our children will embrace our religion, and that they will want to learn more about what it means to be Jewish. As a parent myself, I know how difficult it can be to transmit to children values and traditions that we hold so dearly. After all, our children will grow with ideas of their own. We can only hope that through example and through our love they too will know the joy of being Jewish. At Shabbat Services May 24th eleven of our religious school students will remind us that our tradition lives on in a very marvelous way. This year?s Confirmation Class is a very special one. ?Very Verbal" would be an under?statement... They have challenged me even as I have challenged them. Together we have come together to learn, to study, and to celebrate our faith. Confirmation is a very important ceremony. Unlike a B?nai Mitzvah, Confir?mation does not celebrate a single child, rather the group is celebrated. These students are a microcosm of Am Yisrael, the People of Israel. By their friendship, their trust, their desire to work together in writing a special Confirmation Service, these Confirmands will show us that yes, our hopes, and our dreams are answered. They are a part or this year?s Confirmation Class. I invite the entire Congregation to join me as I officiate at this most meaningful Ceremony. Together we will celebrate the joy of our tradition as embodied in this very special group of students. Wilner Foundation Achievement Award The Wilner Foundation grants are made to recognize, distinguish, honor, and reward outstanding Jew?ish youth for their religious commit ment and their social action aimed at enhancing the community in which they live. The grant is considered an Achievement Award. The award is given to financially assist the recipient youth to partici?pate in activities such as summer camp, day camp, enrichment classes or seminars, travel to a Kinnus, travel to Israel with an organized pilgrim?age, or scholarly projects. The award amount is given in the name of the recipient directly to the organization or school providing the activity for which the grant is made.

Freedman Alex Adler Dora Weintraub Bessie Chaikin Samuel Richard Bossak Lena Akselrad May 31st Rachel Figelski Bertha Martin Paul N. Meltzer Adolph Kramer Florence Bader Andrew Jackson Samuel Newman Clara Routtenberg William Weintraub Jennie Asch Jacob Dunn A special thank you to all of those who worked so diligently on our annual Passover Seder. It was a memorable event for all who attended. Thanks are also due to Rabbi Akselrad for the planning and execution of an especially beautiful and meaningful Yom Hashoah service for our entire Las Vegas community. We hope to see each of you at our Goods and Services Auction and Dessert on May 11th. It will be an evening of fun and surprises. May will be a special month for our congregation. We will have a Confirmation ceremony at the time of Shavuot for our ninth grade students. Confirmation is actually a Reform innovation, begun about one hundred years ago as a ?coming of age? ritual. Originally it was meant to replace the B?nai Mitzvah Ceremony. Now it serves as a continuation of a teenager?s Judaic studies and a reaffirmation of their heritage. All branches of Judaism have adopted the ceremony. We hope to see many members of Ner Tamid share in the joy of our confirmands and their families. Mazel Tov to all. Sincerely, Eileen Page 2 Congregation Ner Tamid ?The Parents of the Confirmation Class of 1991 Request the honor of your presence to help celebrate this important milestone in the life of our Congregation.

In case you?re wondering, my interests include baseball, comics, karate, and uh... math. I?m interested in math for two reasons: HI, It helps you in the real world, and H2,1 need to be excellent at math for my future career as an engineer. There are a lot of reasons I can?t wait to be Bar Mitzvah. Ill get a lot of presents for one. I?ll finally be done with all this studying, and I guess, because, I will symbolically be a man in the eyes of God, myself, and the Jewish people.

We were treated to Passover cake by mayoral candidate Jan Laverty- Jones. Last year we were visited by Steve Miller, so we were happy to comply with the request to have Jan Jones speak to us also. She was kind enough to answer many of our questions about her qualifications and her platform. We also had entertainment at this meet?ing. During lunch we listened to the lifting piano music of Art Gellin. Later we heard old favorite Cockney songs presented by Janet Ire?land. The second meeting of the month (which has not yet occurred at this writing) will be a Bingo day. In May we will have Reva Schwartz from Weight Watchers speaking on ?How to Feel Good About Yourself.? At the second meet?ing Joe Behar will tell us ?Everything we wanted to know about getting into pictures.? Every month we have added new mem?bers to our roster. Needless to say, we are delighted to welcome many newcomers to Las Vegas, as well as long-time residents who have just discovered us. A great drawing card is our support group for widowed persons. Sandy Greenblatt has been the group leader and is described by those attending as ?wonderful?. Her help is deeply appreciated. The Golden Chai board has approved our first donation to the Temple for this fiscal year. A check will be presented to the Temple Board at the May Meeting. Hopefully we will be able to make a second presentation as our Kol Nidre pledge. We would like to see many more temple members join our ranks. We are planning wonderful activities for seniors including trips, parties, and a variety of programs to please all tastes and interests. Remember - the first and third Thursday of each month at noon.
