Keep Hope Alive
A special evening with Michael Segal
Thursday, October 18, 2018
7:00 PM
In 1981, Michael Segal was a promising
pre-med student at the University of Texas at
Austin. He walked into the middle of a gas
station robbery, was shot in the head and
left for dead. Improbably, Mike survived.
What the perpetrators killed was the career
of a would-be surgeon.
After a long rehabilitation, Mike graduated
from college with the highest honors,
completed graduate school, and is now a
social worker in Houston, working with those
who have experienced trauma.
Join us for an inspirational evening,
sponsored in partnership with the Empty
Nesters.

psychologist abused their powers in the
name of science.
Come early for sips, sweets and schmoozing

 MISSION & HISTORY

CONGREGATION SHAAREY ZEDEK Mission

C ongregation Shaarey Zedek is a warm, welcoming, inclusive and egalitarian

Conservative Jewish community. We provide to all generations innovative,
stimulating and diverse spiritual, educational, leadership and social opportunities
that nurture our love and commitment to Jewish life, our Synagogue, our country and
the State of Israel.

Our spiritual direction is led by committed, knowledgeable and caring clergy

available to all.

Together, all participate in celebrating our history, enriching our community and
planning our future.

CONGREGATION SHAAREY ZEDEK History

In 1861, at the beginning of the Civil War, seventeen followers of Traditional

Judaism withdrew from the Beth El Society in Detroit to found the “Shaarey
Zedek Society.” In 1877 the membership constructed the first building in Detroit
to be erected specifically as a synagogue at Congress and St. Antoine. Over the
years, Congregation Shaarey Zedek has been located in a number of beautiful and
picturesque buildings. These include Winder between St. Antoine and Beaubien
Streets, Willis Street E and Brush, and Chicago Boulevard and Lawton which is still
standing. At the 100th annual meeting of the Congregation on April 12, 1961,
more than 700 members approved the recommendation from the Board of Directors
that a new synagogue be built on a forty acre site in the city of Southfield.

Since the 19th century, members of our congregation have proudly played leading
roles in Michigan, the nation and throughout the world Jewry. For more than
150 years Congregation Shaarey Zedek has been a house of prayer, a house
of learning and a community gathering place, transmitting Conservative Jewish
teaching, dor l’dor, from generation to generation.
