New Congregational Fund Established
Message from the Rabbi
About the time you read this we will
be reading parsha Yitro which begins with Moshe’s father in law Yitro
coming to him right after the Israelites encounter with Amalek on the way out
of Egypt. Hazal , the sages of old, consider this portion of the Torah
to be the “hinge of the Torah” as it describes the revelation at Sinai. The
parsha opens by saying that Yitro, who was a priest of Midian, had heard all
that God had done for Moses and for Israel His people, how the Lord had brought
Israel out of Egypt. So Yitro brought Moshe his family, whom he's sent home:
his wife Zipporah and sons, Gershom and Eliezer.
But before
the Torah gets to the seminal moment for Jews and, possibly, for all humanity
at Sinai, there is a curious incident. It takes time to describe how Moshe was
sitting one day as a magistrate among the people with people standing around
him day and night. And it says: (Exodus 18:14) “When Moses’s father-in-law saw
how much he had to do for the people, he said ‘what is this thing that you are
doing to the people? Why do you act alone, while all the people stand around
you from morning to evening?’” Moshe replied, telling him of his
responsibility. To which Yitro replied: “The thing you are doing is not right;
you will surely wear yourself out, and these people as well. For the task is
too heavy for you; you cannot do it alone.”
As I sit here, crutches by my side,
I've decided to take a break from boring you with my rants. My daughter Melissa
spent part of her winter break in Israel as part of a group from the University
of Maryland. Families were kept up-to-date on the internet, with periodic
e-mails from the group leader, as well as guest blogs from some of the
students. The following is Melissa's blog from Jan. 1, 2008:
So I'm
sitting at a gas station somewhere in Israel, typing away at a computer. Headed
to the desert for the night, I have no idea where we are at the moment. I see
city lights in the distance. Jerusalem? Probably not - I've been asleep
since we left it a few hours ago.
The truth
is, I have no idea where we are. But it doesn't really matter. I'm back in
Israel, and that's all I really care about. The past week has been a whirlwind.
I truly think I've done more in this one week than I have on any of my past
Israel trips. We've made Jerusalem our home, Tzfat our weekend vacation spot
and fro-yo our food of choice. I've become settled in Jerusalem, in our sick
hotel with amazing food (and soup). Because we've gotten into a routine
(breakfast, Nevey Yerushalayim, random afternoon activity) we've gotten more of
a chance to get acquainted with the city where it all began.

New Congregational
Fund Established
by Susan F. Rafkind
It is my great pleasure to establish a new fund at
Congregation Ahavath Israel to be called, The Miriam G. Freed Arts and Entertainment
Fund, in memory of my dear mother. She was a person of many talents - artist,
crafter, musician, and public school teacher. A devoted mother, she give me my
first introduction to the violin, played duets for long hours and encouraged me
to pursue music. She at first hosted services at home before there was a
synagogue in our home town of Wethersfield, CT, and once a building was
purchased and the synagogue established, she regularly attended services with
her family as a founding member of Temple Beth Torah of Wethersfield . In
addition, she was very active as a Talmud Torah teacher, teaching in her home,
at Temple Beth Torah, and at Emanuel Synagogue in West Hartford, CT.
The monies which are donated to the Arts and Entertainment Fund will be used
for musical events, guest lectures, and film screenings to enhance the cultural
life of Congregation Ahavath Israel and the broader Jewish community.
Our first project will be "Chaifest 2008" to
be held on Sunday, March 16, 2008 at 3 pm. This will be a program featuring
classical music played by area professionals, and klezmer music with audience
participation. Refreshments will be served. Please consider contributing to the
Miriam G. Freed Arts and Entertainment Fund and help ensure the success of this
and future events.

Miriam G. Freed
“Chaifest

will be held on Sunday, March 16, at 3 p.m. Classical music, including the Mendelssohn

professionals conducted by Mr. Nathan Madsen, recently appointed Music Director
of the Bard Orchestra at Bard College. Talented young players from the Kingston
area have been invited to join in a gypsy Czardas which will be conducted by
the lucky winner of a silent auction. Audience members are encouraged to bring
their instruments and play or sing along in a Klezjam after intermission.
People may participate if they can play by ear or read music with a medium
level of difficulty.
The winner
of the music excerpt contest (as published in The Voice) will be
announced at the concert and will receive a wonderful Klezmer CD, but will not
have to be present to win. March 7 is the deadline for the silent auction and
the excerpt contest. Tickets with advanced reservations are $18 for adults and
$12 for those 13 and under. Prices at the door will be $20 for adults and $15

Yiskor Journal Correction We regret that Larry Jacobs' name
was left off the list of departed former presidents in this year’s Yiskor Journal.
In addition to being the Hazzan for many years, many of us remember Larry as
he also served as our Hazzan for High Holidays, even after retirement. Larry
served the synagogue in many roles and is deeply missed by many. We regret
leaving his name off the list. It will be added in future years. |
By Candace Belles
As always,
the kitchen is busy. We do need some new ideas and helpers for baking. Winter
is the perfect time to be inside with the oven on! We have Wednesday
afternoons, some Fridays, early in the day before 2 pm, or on Sunday mornings
between 9 – 12. Bring recipes and your apron to enjoy free time, good company
and coffee, to help stock the freezers. We are always looking for pareve deserts.
If you
haven’t been to our first Friday Shabbat dinner, there is still time. February
is an Italian dinner, and it looks like March is going to be the “Everything
Stuffed Dinner”: cabbage, both meat and vegetarian, peppers, meat and vegetarian,
and a few stuffed surprises. We will have a nice crowd and it’s always good
food and good company.

I hope
everyone is enjoying the mild weather. Don’t get too happy though. Winter is just
taking a break.
Sisterhood
is also taking a winter break. January is quiet. Our snowbirds are enjoying
Florida and the rest of us at home are snuggled in.
The book
club is running the next meeting which will be in March at Rita Smith’s house.
Watch your email and snail mail for the name of the book, date and time. If we
don’t have your email and you would like to keep up- to- date, send it to
Arlene Cohen, our membership chair.
In February,
we hope to be running some craft classes. Lisa King-Smith and Marlene Steiner
are in charge. Let them know your interests. In late February, we hope to have
a Sisterhood Sunday. We will conduct services and then sponsor a breakfast. I
hope everyone will participate.
I am open
for ideas for Spring meetings: crafts, services, and ideas are always welcome.
Call me or leave a message at the office 338 - 4409.
The gift
shop is looking for someone to give it a fresh look for Spring and order a few new
items. Any ideas or free time ? Call Chris Kowalenko or the office at 338 -
4409.

Shabbat Services Please
come for Shabbat services, but please, when you do, remember that at shul we
are shomer shabbas and therefore the use of cell phones is prohibited during
Shabbat and should be turned off during services, and that calls should not
be made to the Synagogue from sundown on Friday to sundown on Saturday
night. (Check the conveniently located calender in each issue for
candle-lighting and end times). No
synagogue business may be conducted on Shabbat (ie: shopping for synagogue
functions, phone calls or emails to synagogue members regarding synagogue
business, etc.) Thank you
for your understanding and cooperation. |
USCJ held its
biennial convention from November 29th to December 3rd
in Orlando Florida. Bernie and Lisa King-Smith attended as delegates to the
convention representing Congregation Ahavath Israel and Empire Region. The
following are some of the key events and speakers from the convention.Dr.
Arnold Eisen, the new chancellor at Jewish Theological Seminary (JTS), spoke
and stated that, despite news stories about a crisis in the movement, the truth
is that there is great excitement and the possibility for a wonderful future.
We must not “surrender to alleged decline” but make sure that both the outside
world and our own members understand what we are.
Dr. Eisen said that as Conservative Jews “we can walk
unafraid at whatever this society throws at us and whatever it blesses us with.
It will make us stronger and make Torah stronger. Not only do we have nothing
to fear from the future, we have everything to hope for from it. Instead we
must
be more clear and more proud of our real accomplishments.” He then listed the
basic principles of Conservative Judaism:
- Learning: tradition cannot be engaged without really knowing it.
- Klal Israel: many of our people head
community-wide organizations and that is something about which we should be
proud.
- Zionism: our movement was the first to
embrace it and because it is at our movement’s heart.
- Language: both the vocabulary and the grammar
are needed for the understanding to be deep and real.
- Tzedakah: tikkun olam is a core Conservative principle.
- Conversation: we can disagree with each
other but we must talk to teach other.
- Jewish time and space: There is no Judaism without Shabbat.
- G-d: although we can’t agree on anything about G-d we must be free to
discuss, believe and disbelieve.
Sunday Morning Dr. Ron Wolfson, president and co-founder of Synagogue
2000 and Synagogue 3000, gave a very stirring keynote entitled
“Envisioning the Synagogue for the 21st Century”. “We have a lot of
work to do to transform relationships, inspire leadership, and recruit and
train a new generation of leaders to gather the strengths of the movement as we
move into the future to craft the synagogue of the 21st
century,” he said. Doing so will demand that we pay attention to our members,
both the ones who show up all the time and the ones who don’t. We also have to
pay attention to those people who are not part of our community; we must
welcome them when they come to us.
It is not enough merely to offer programs, although of course we also must
offer programs. We have to build synagogue of relationships, both the
relationships between people and the relationships between people and G-d. We
must create spiritual relationships, where people understand that the Torah
means life, in a synagogue where they engage in serious prayer, serious study,
and a personal commitment to repairing the world.
Our synagogues must tailor their services to each person; unity in diversity
means, among other things, that many minyanim, filling many needs, can meet in
one building, as part of one community; everyone will join in the kiddush.
Similarly, each member should be encouraged to join in the activities that
speak most to him or her. There is no one size that fits all.The biennial this
year was one of the more exciting conventions in recent years. It is clear that
there is a change in the Conservaive movement, and that change is creating lots
of positive discussion on who we are and where we are going. You can read more
of the speeches and programs from the Biennial at the USCJ web site www.uscj.org.

President’s message continued from
page 1
Jerusalem is
unreal. Its vast beauty and sprawling landscapes, which have remained virtually
unchanged over thousands of years, serve as a reminder that we are seeing the
same city our ancestors saw. How many places can anyone say that about?
Yesterday,
we visited the homes of people whose lives have been altered by the terrorist
attacks that have for years plagued our beautiful country. My group visited the
home of Ronit Tubul, who suffered severe brain injuries when a suicide bomber
attacked the bus she was taking to
work one morning in June 2002. If you met Ronit on the street today, you would
never know that five years ago, she lay in a coma, lingering between life and
death. Today, she has resumed her job as a policewoman and is raising two young
children with her husband, a fellow policeman.
Ronit spoke
to us about her experience, about that day and how her life has changed since.
It brought the Matzav, the Intifada, so much closer.
Here we
were, eating pretzels and cake with a woman who will never step on a bus again.
This war, it's real. The danger is ever present. But we live in America, where
an attack is a thirty second segment on CNN (or 10 seconds if you're watching
Fox News…). We write a check to JNF and forget all about people like Ronit.
Ronit said something to us yesterday, and I'll never forget it. She said,
"I will never leave Jerusalem. I could never live anywhere else in the world.
I don't want to live anywhere else. This is home."
Jerusalem is
home, yes. Not just to Ronit and her family, and not just to the 750,000 people
who live there. Jerusalem is home to all of us – to every Jew who has ever
uttered the words "L'shana haba'ah b'Yerushalayim," who has been the
victim of a hate crime or who has yet to see the sun set on the holiest place
in the world. Whether you've been here or have yet to be here, this is your
home. This is our home. This is my home. I am home.
Rabbi’s message continued from page 1
Last month our esteemed
president took over the issue to, in essence, explain that he had been
counseled with those words, as Moshe had been counseled by Yitro. And he has
instituted necessary changes in the structure of the synagogue's functioning
that will, hopefully, begin to address the issues Yitro raised about wearing
out the leader and the people.
But
initiating change does not mean change happens immediately. Last week on the
news I heard the head of an agency in Massachusetts reporting how much flak he
was taking for there being no visible results in his agency since he’d taken
over. The problem was that he'd just taken over with the New Year. And, as he
said, “not only have we not had time to act, we haven't had time to familiarize
ourselves with the work done over the last period which got the agency into
such a state.” And then he went on to add the most important thing: “We need to
act consistently and deliberately but not hastily.”
You might be
laughing that anyone who'd been in charge less than a week would be pressured
to fix long-standing problems. But this is not an uncommon problem brought on
not only by impatience and frustration but by a lack of knowledge of process
and procedure.
It reminds
me of the time many years ago when I was the head of a Jewish agency dealing
with alcohol and drug impairment. A congregation had been forced to suspend its
cantor because of legal issues resulting from alcohol and drug use. They
actually withdrew the case from the Impairment review committee because the
cantor had refrained from alcohol and drugs for two weeks and they considered
him cured!
In Hebrew
the words for patience and tolerance are identical except for vowels. They both
come from the same root. We all need to have patience and tolerance. Very often
things get worse before they get better. Not all changes will work; process and
procedure will have to evolve and change as everyone learns more and begins to
consider actions in the light of full knowledge. Those who have been involved
before have been asked to reconsider how they function in light of new
guidelines; those coming in will need time to learn those guidelines and get up
to speed.
But there
has been an immediate change that I would like to celebrate. The reorganization
has brought both more members into involvement with the shul and brought deeper
involvement to some. This has not only strengthened the synagogue but
strengthened their commitment to their synagogue family and to the Jewish community.
Yitro advises Moshe to "seek out from among all the people capable
(humans) who fear God, trustworthy people who spurn ill-gotten gain. Set these
over the people as chiefs...”
We have started that process. My personal goal would be have 100% involvement of members but I congratulate those who have made valuable changes and those who are the Indians as well as the chiefs. I hope we can all concentrate on the Japanese adage of ‘fix the problem, don’t fix the blame.” And that we can give time to fully understand what has been done and make our decisions from there through due process in full confidence that we have used our hearts, intelligence, time and energy well.

Yiddish was the secret code, therefore I don't
farshstaist,
A bisseleh maybe here and there, the rest has gone to waste.
Sadly when I hear it now, I only get the gist.
My Bubbeh spoke it beautifully; but me, I am tsimisht.
So och un vai as I should say, or even oy vai iz mir,
Though my pisk is lacking Yiddish, it's familiar to my ear.
And I'm no Chaim Yonkel , in fact I was shtick naches,
But, when it comes to Yiddish though, I'm talking with my tuchas.
Es iz a shandeh far di kinder that I don't know it better
(Though it's really nishtkefelecht when one needs to write a letter)
But, when it comes to characters, there's really no contention,
No other linguist can compete with honorable mentshen:
They have nebbishes and nebechels and others without mazel,
Then, too, schmendriks and schlemiels, and let's not forget
schlemazel.
These words are so precise and descriptive to the listener,
So much better than "a pill" is to call someone 'farbissener'.
Or - that a brazen woman would be better called chaleria,
And you'll agree farklempt says more than does hysteria.
I'm not haken dir a tsheinik and I hope I'm not a kvetch,
But isn't mieskeit kinder, than to call someone a wretch?
Mitten derinnen, I hear Bubbeh say, "It's nechtiker
tog, don't fear,
To me you're still a maven, zol zein shah, don't fill my ear.
A leben ahf dein keppele, I don't mean to interrupt,
But you are speaking narishkeit.....And a gezunt auf dein kup!”
“The L–d will guard your going
out
ךחאצרמשי הוהי
and your
coming home, now and
forever”
