Tenth Annual Winter Dinner —New Date, New Location

Event Will be at Rossi’s on the Sixth
Night of Chanukah

Q Q 9
By Ruth Paley

OK Jewish Lexington—get ready for a new winter dinner
experience. Our Winter Dinner/Chanukah Party will be
held at Rossi’s new restaurant in Chinoe Center on
Sunday, December 12. If you normally travel over the
winter holidays, or if you’re in an interfaith marriage and
usually spend December 24th with your spouse’s family,
here’s an opportunity to get in on the fun of the Central
Kentucky Jewish Federation’s great annual winter party.

Rossi’s, now located in the Chinoe Center in the location
that was previously Pacific Pearl, is preparing to host a
wonderful dinner for us. If you’ve ever eaten at Rossi’s,
either at the new location or the previous one, you know
what great food they serve. If not, you’re in for a treat.

In an effort to acquaint the community with their restau-
rant, Rossi's has given us a very good price for our party.
In addition, CKIF is subsidi7ing the cost so that we can

These will be followed by a buffet which will include a
choice of two salads, eggplant parmesan, rotini with basil

There is a separate space for the chil—
dren, where they will have super—
vised activities and be able to enjoy a
pizza and ice cream dinner. The cost
for kids from six to 12 is $5, children
five and under are free.

Since this is a Chanukah party, we
encourage all participants to bring a
chanukiah and candles to put on the
dinner tables. Before dinner, we will
light the candles and enjoy a few tra-
ditional songs led by Aviva Bowling.

In keeping with our tradition of
tzedakah, we ask that you bring two
non-perishable food items for each
member of your party, to be given to
God’s Pantry. If you forget the food,
you will be asked for a contribution
of $2 per person, which also will go
to God’s Pantry.

Record Contributions

Some Help Still Needed

OOO

By Marty Barr

The 2004 campaign continues to close
in on a record $400,000 level of con—
tributions. The campaign consists of
three major stages and each one has
contributed to this success. The first
step was Super Sunday in February
where a number of volunteers rang-
ing from teenagers to senior citizens
called members of the community to
get their pledges. The second phase
was the major gifts event, which was
held at Carl Meyer's home in May.

The final stage of the campaign
occurs when volunteer solicitors take
pledge cards and fan out through the
community to get pledges. This part
of the campaign kicked off in June
and approximately 95‘“ of the cards
are either in the hands of solicitors or
have been completed and returned.
There are still a small number of
cards which need to be distributed to
solicitors, and volunteers would be
greatly appreciated. If you are willing
to help, please contact either Danny
at (859) 268—0672 or me Marty Barr at

President's Message

How is Business?
Q § §

I just finished reading last month’s
Shalom article on Lowell Nigoff’s
auto repair business. At the time
Lowell was getting his business off

the ground I was one of his next door

neighbors on Mechanic Street, as I
was then a staff psychologist at the
Comprehensive Care Center
downtown. I gratefully took my car
there for repairs. Not only did they
do a great job, I always enjoyed
schmoozing with Lowell. It’s almost

25 years later and we still do business

with Lowell. I am acutely aware that
we go there both because he does a
good job and because of my need to
patronize the businesses of members
of the Jewish community.

David Feinberg

About once a week someone calls my
office and wants to know if I do
Christian counseling. Although I
consider myself quite eclectic in the
therapeutic approaches I use, I don’t
think I can stretch quite that far. It is
a source of amusement to my staff,
but it did prompt me to examine my
thoughts about directing my business
toward people whom I know and
who have common ways of viewing
the world. I don’t plan to limit
myself to using only Jewish
professionals and merchants, but I
have to admit that it is part of my
selection process. When it is
practical, I do choose to patronize
Jewish professionals and merchants.
Conversely, I think a number of
people seek me out because they
know that I am Jewish.

surrounded them was part of what
has become the core of our

a "retro" movement to again think in

Your Campaign Dollars at Work

What is the JDC?

##Q

The CKJP Board wants you to know how
your campaign dollars are spent. This is
the first in a series of articles about this
topic. When we appeal to you every year
for our annual campaign, we explain to
you that part of the money we raise goes
to overseas partners who provide services
in different parts of the world. One of
those partners is the American Jewish
Joint Distribution Committee, known
also as ”the ]DC" and in some parts of
the world as "the Joint. "

In August 1914, Henry Morgenthau,
Sr., then US. Ambassador to Turkey,
cabled New York philanthropist
Jacob Schiff asking for $500,000 to
relieve the living conditions of
Palestinian Jews devastated by World
War I. Within a month, the money
was raised, and by November the

vide support for Jewish communities in Palestine and

Europe.

Ninety years later, the JDC still serves as the overseas arm
of the United Jewish Communities, providing relief and
support for Jewish communities the world over. Since
1914, the JDC has aided millions of people and it has been
in the forefront of some of the most difficult situations in

the twentieth century.

The JDC was the only Jewish organization allowed to
function, albeit in a limited way, in the Soviet Union

and still provides today a very important lifeline for

more than 200,000 elderly Jews in Russia. The JDC
was there after World War II to help the survivors of
the Holocaust, and to help rescue and resettle Jews
from Arab lands coming to Israel. More recently, the
JDC played a key role in ensuring permission for the
remaining Jews of Syria and Yemen to leave, and in
rescuing over 1,000 lives, Jewish and non-Jewish, by
bringing people through the frontlines of the

Bosnian Civil War in the 90s.

Celebrate 350: Jews and
the American Revolution

Not since the old days of the ”Spain
of the three religions" under Muslim
rule, did Jews enjoy the possibilities
open to them during colonial times
in America. Jews succeeded in trade
and professions playing significant
roles in opening up new western ter—
ritories for colonization.

It comes, then, as no surprise that
Jews sided solidly with the revolu-
tionary movement. Two Jews were
part of General Washington’s staff:
Benjamin Nones and Col. Isaac
Franks. Nones served under Pulaski
and, later, under De Kalb and
Lafayette. He is credited with leading
the French forces which broke the
siege of Savannah. Philip Moses
Russel was the surgeon’s mate at the
Second Virginia Regiment and
helped care for the soldiers during
the winter of 1777-78. There was also,
of course, the "Jew’s Company" of
South Carolina, so called because 26
Jews served in it.

Haym Salomon accepted large
amounts of the commercial paper
distributed by Robert Morris in
exchange for supplies for the Army,
papers which were later not honored
h\ the (onliiii'ntiil ( ongress. He also
helped broker over $200,000 in gov-
ernment securities. Other Jews who
contributed financially to sustain the
Revolution include Manual
Josephson, Mordechai Sheftal, Moses
Hays, Isaac Moses, David Franks,
and the Minis family.

While most Jews did, indeed, sup-
port the Revolution, some Jews sided
with the loyalists. Such was the case
of the Pollocks, the Harts, and the
Lucenas in Newport who all paid
dearly for their loyalty to the crown.
David Franks of Philadelphia also
openly espoused the British cause
and paid for it. Most Jews did, how—
ever, support the Revolution.

During the parade celebrating the
ratification of the constitution in 1789
in Philadelphia, the proud members
of the local Jewish community made
sure that among the refreshments
tables, one offered only kosher food.

The Revolutionary War completed a
process initiated in the times of the
colonies. For the first time since the
expulsion of Spain in 1492, Jews felt
they belonged. The South Carolina
Gazette and General Advertiser pub-
lished an article on August 30, 1783
which said, among other things: "The
Jews have had a considerable share
in our late revolution. They have
behaved well throughout. Let our
government invite the Jews to our
state and promise them a settlement
in it. It will be a wise and politic
stroke and gi\ e a place of rest at last
to the tribe of Israel.‘ Soon many
more Jews would join the handful of
their brothers in America, but that
story is for next month.

“Grief shared
is grief diminishes

At Milward Funeral Directors,
we’re reminded daily how funerals
provide safe harbor for grieving.

And we understand why the
expression of grief matters so much.

- Coming to grips with loss on the
emotional level is a process — and
grief is its first step.

0 By taking that first step, true
healing begins.

0 In sharing your sorrow with

, others, you open the door to
sharing fond memories and
loving thoughts as well.

Everyone at Milward Funeral
Directors understands the vital role
of each element of the grief process.
Bob Milward said it best in an
interview with American Funeral

Director in 1985:

ROB & BOB MlLWARl)

”For that one short moment in a
family’s life, the funeral home
actually becomes a home the
gathering place where friends and
family remember the past and gather
the necessary strength and resolve to
continue with the process of living.
Grief shared is grief diminishe ”

Bob and his son Rob are the fifth
and sixth generations of the
Milward family to serve families in
Central Kentucky.

You can rely on the Milward staff to
provide professional and
compassionate service. And should
you want it, we will direct you to
organizations in our community
that can help you through the grief
process —— not Just during the
funeral period but in the days and
months that follow.

Message from the President of

the State of Israel

From Mr. Moshe Katsav
to the Jewish
communities on the
occasion of Rosh
Hashanah 2004-5765

#90

Dear Friends,

Rosh HaShanah, the Jewish New
Year, unites all parts of the Jewish
people throughout the world. During
the High Holidays we conduct a per—
sonal, communal and national soul
searching.

The State of Israel stands before difficult, even fateful,
decisions. The issues involved in these decisions give rise
to powerful emotions and deep disagreement.

In these days of fasting, prayer and charity, we need to
remember what the Creator and Jewish history both
demand of us — that we remain united as one. We can
maintain unity, even while differing in opinion. Our goal
is common, we differ on the way to reach it.

Regretfully, we are witness lately to a recurrence of anti—
Semitism throughout Europe. Attacks against Jews and
Jewish community institutions have increased, despite the
efforts of European leaders. The State of Israel Views
these developments with deep concern. The Jewish peo-
ple need to work against these together, from a sense of

+++

As I write this article, I am getting
ready to go to Buenos Aires to spend
the High Holidays with my parents.
As I was preparing for this visit, I
could not help but think back to the
time I decided to leave behind the
place of my birth for a different
country with a different culture and a
different language. I do remember
very distinctly that it was not an easy
decision, but let me share with you a
couple of "snapshots" of the kind of
situations which led me to come to
America.

First ﬂashback: As I graduated with a
Master in Education back in 1983, I
already had substantial experience in
non-formal (or informal) education as
well as training systems for
educators. So, naturally, when I saw
in the paper the opportunity to apply
for a position as director of the long-
distance training program for high
school teachers as part of the efforts
of the Ministry of Education to
improve the quality of teachers, I
jumped at the opportunity. Those
were the days of the beginning of the
first civilian administration after the

Daniel Chejfec

infamous military rule of the "dirty
war." I was hopeful and wanted to do
my part, small as it might be, in
bringing back democratic culture to
Argentina. I was among those
selected for the final interviews (there
were three of us). As I entered the
office of the secretary for teachers'
training at the ministry, I was sure I
was going to get the job. As the
interview progressed and the
secretary told me how interested they
were in my past experience and all
but told me I was the leading
candidate, I had difficulty staying
calm. Then the bomb dropped:

"The only problem we see is that
your past experience is full of this
Jewish stuff. If you come to work

for us, we need you to sever your

ties with the Jewish community...

It is not me, you understand, but
there are still anti—Semites in the
ministry.” I was deeply offended,
promised I was going to get back

to him, and never did.

Second flashback: It was the time
right after I switched from chemistry
to education, and I worked full time
at a printing house to pay for my
studies. I was also working, over the
weekends, as a Madrich at one of the

largest Jewish sport clubs in
Argentina and the military were in
power. While coming to my parents’
home for dinner one day, I got off the
bus and I was stopped by a
policeman and the following
dialogue took place: "Your name is
Daniel Chejfec, correct?" "Yes" (and I
am already off balance); "And you
work at Zlotopioro (the printing
house) on Sarmiento street, correct?"
"Yes" (and this time I swallow hard).

time to get
over that
one.

There were
a number of incidents along those
same lines, but the reason I am
sharing them is not that I want you to
know my stories, but because I want
you to understand my reasons for
coming to America. With all its flaws
and difficulties, American society is
still, as someone
once said, "The least

system deserves to be preserved,

ﬂaws and all.

Several more questions followed. As
the "conversation" progressed, I was
getting more and more anxious.
Finally, the policeman said to me:
"See? be careful ~ we know
everything." It goes without saying
that it took me a good amount of
