  • The Shofar Jewish Federation of Grand Rapids 2727 Michigan NE Grand Rapids, MI 49506-1240
    Volume 17, Number 6 March 2012 Federation News Executive Director’s Letter S.ORG Dear Friends, The Jewish Cultural Council’s speaker last month, Professor Reuven Hazan of Hebrew University in Jerusalem, delivered to our community a thought provoking speech about the Israeli perspective on the Middle East conflict. Of note, his discussion of the “hawks and doves” in Israel brought a number of nods from those who attended, including from both local hawks and doves. I’d like to share some of my recollections of Professor Hazan’s talk along with some reflections about democracy in Israel. Professor Hazan’s choice of “hawks and doves” proved effective in framing the discussion. A central theme was the steady movement by the hawks toward the dovish position, from Menachem Begin relinquishing the Sinai to Yitzhak Shamir sitting down FEBRUARY 2012 with the PLO; from Benjamin Netanyahu agreeing to a two-state solution to Ariel ADAR/NISSAN 5772 Sharon unilaterally withdrawing from Gaza. These ‘Nixon goes to China’ moments for the Israeli hawks make it clear there is a desire across the political spectrum in Israel for reaching a secure peace with their Arab neighbors. WWW.JEWISHGRANDRAPID While this history has brought Israel’s hawks and doves closer, Professor Hazan contended, uncertainty remains about what the future will bring. The split of Likud into a more hawkish Likud and moderate Kadima parties a few years ago was significant in Israel’s politics. He noted this split makes the willingness of the hawks to move once again toward the dovish side more difficult.

  • Zionism Zine
    zionism zine “...you envisage the shadow of a distant dream you shared with your comrades, a dream of a far-off land, of Eretz Israel and its life of friendship and work, human dignity and pride.” ~In The Days of Destruction and Revolt, Zivia Lubetkin i’ve never wanted to kiss the ground so much as the things that grow out of the ground the trees the plants the weeds the delicate kumquats josh and tzivia combed them from the trees kept them in a bag offered me to bite through the narrow orange skin speckled like a golf ball it is the skin that’s sweet, i’m told not the fruit they’re unbearable sour the size of a grape and I can’t get through it fruit is stronger in eretz yisrael branches reach out to touch my face I want to kiss each leaf let the wood leave its mark on me in the chaparral I feel compelled. - erica kushner garin tzur mazkirol tnua 5781 This zine was created by members of Habonim Dror, a Progressive Labor Zionist youth movement. Zionism is many things for us—a source of inspiration, a historical legacy, a vision for a just society, an answer to antisemitism, a connection point with Jews around the world. Zionism is a deep idea, but sometimes it is sharp and bright. It seizes us with both hands, reaching up out of the pages of our own journals and shaking us by the shoulders: Wake up! Zionism is a wide river, with many different people living on its shores, floating their dreams and their sorrows downstream on rafts of every possible design.

  • Other Developments SERVICES to the COMMUNITY and ITS
    142 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK Kansas City reported its first referrals from a Federal penitentiary and state psychiatric hospitals. Other Developments During this period several smaller Jewish communities began to plan the establishment of a vocational service facility on a part-time basis. Four additional agencies introduced fees for vocational guidance service, making a total of eight (Cleveland, Boston, Houston, Cincinnati, Denver, Milwaukee, New York City, and Philadelphia), and three agencies (Kansas City, Mo., Houston, and Montreal) expanded staff to meet more of their local needs. The Jewish Occupational Council and JVS agencies were consulted by Hadassah, The Women's Zionist Organization of America and the Israel Consulate for the development of more adequate vocational service facilities in Israel. The JVS agencies were used to assist Israeli students in the United States and to help train vocational service personnel for Israel. ROLAND BAXT SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY AND ITS YOUTH EWISH community centers exist throughout the United States to provide American Jews with opportunities for group experience which will satisfy Jtheir individual and group needs. Many national Jewish organizations spon- sor youth-serving programs to fulfill similar purposes for their young people. The Jewish Community Center In 1951 the number of Jewish community centers and Young Men's and Women's Hebrew Associations in the United States affiliated with the Na- tional Jewish Welfare Board (JWB) increased to 337. This represented a rise of 42 from the total of 295 in 1946, at the end of World War II. The aggre- gate number of individuals served by centers increased 2 per cent over the number served in 1950 to reach an estimated total of 514,000; the propor- tionate increase since 1946 was 15.5 per cent.

Our community helps families of Jewish preschoolers choose a “next Jewish step,” such as our congregational school, known as the Jewish Learning Center (“JLC”), or nearby Solomon Schechter. We encourage our children to continue to the next step seamlessly, from preschool to Jewish educational program in Kindergarten, where children discover the meaning of Jewish identity as they explore and engage with the values, history, language, beliefs and rituals of the Jewish people. In our JLC, we use all our opportunities to engage our students; learning occurs in the classroom, the sanctuary, the music room, on field trips and in many family-oriented activities throughout the year. Our younger children attend every Sunday morning while our older students learn Sundays and Wednesdays. STOM, our post Bnei Mitzvah/Hebrew High School/USY, meet Wednesday evenings. This year, we take pride in introducing a family service called Hinei Ma Tov, monthly (see calendar for details) and a Tot Shabbat twice a month. Experiential learning is central to our curriculum. Prayer and the study of text are woven into our curriculum. On Sundays and Wednesdays, students assemble to pray, daven, for Shaharit, the morning service, and Mincha, the afternoon service, where they learn basic synagogue skills and gain comfort in the service.
