Friday, September 13, 2024 • 10 Elul 5784
6:30 PM - 7:30 PMTemple Israel members since 2009, Emma and Walter Rous contribute in many ways. As chair of the Israel Affairs Committee, Emma has fostered respectful discussion and education from a wide variety of perspectives. Walter’s beautiful photographs have been shared in the synagogue newsletter and art exhibits. Together and separately, Emma and Walter’s kindness, involvement, and spirit of adventure delight us all.
Emma has led Temple Israel’s Israel Affairs Committee for ten years. This successful initiative, launched by Rabbi David Senter z”l, promotes dialogue about Israel and Israeli current events in ways that reflect and respect the diverse perspectives within our congregation while affirming support for the ideals upon which Israel was founded. Under Emma’s leadership, the committee has offered quality programs, sponsored Israel-themed events, and provided education that broadens awareness of Israel’s complexities. Diplomatic and even-handed, Emma has facilitated an open, healthy, and respectful exchange of ideas, both within the committee’s discussions and through the programs sponsored by the committee.
Among Walter’s gifts to our community have been photographs taken both at home and abroad, sharing images of joyful events and celebrating the wonders of the natural world. Walter has also been a devoted member of the Yiddish class, to which he contributes his broad knowledge of Jewish culture and Hebrew language. We are grateful for Emma and Walter’s open-hearted contributions, which add to the health and vitality of the Temple Israel community.
