With the generous support of the Jewish Federation of Greater Houston and the local chapters of B'nai B'rith, Hillel has made a dramatic transition from a part-time counselorship to a full-time Foundation. This exciting new development has enabled Hillel to vigorously promote a dynamic program of activities for Jewish students attending campuses in the greater Houston area. The broad goals of Hillel are to foster Jewish identity and Jewish creativity among college students and faculty. Hillel therefore functions as a combination of the many agencies that serve the Jewish community at large rolled into one--synagogues (of various orientations), community center, counseling center, school for Jewish education, and community relations council. The Houston Hillel Foundation is part of a network of about 360 Foundations and Counselorships at institutions of higher learning in the United States, Canada, Israel, Europe, South Africa, and Australia. As such it is under the aegis of B'nai B'rith and specifically the policy formulated for all Hillel units by the B'nai B'rith_Hillel Commission. At the same time, the Houston Hillel Foundation is a local entity, being a member of the family of local agencies supported by the Jewish Federation of Houston. The instrument whereby both national and local policy sources are coordinated and implemented is the Board of Directors of the Houston B'nai B'rith Hillel Foundation. Hillel invites you to take a first-hand look at our "new beginnings." The following pages outline some of Hillel's directions for the current year. Best wishes for a Happy and Healthy New Year.

The first ever United Jewish Appeal Campus Campaign is being launched on Friday evening, February 15, with a Shabbat dinner and presentation on Israel by Ms. Naomi Brodkin, SW Region UJA representative. The pot-luck dinner begins at 7:00 PM at the home of Stewart Zuckerbrod, 1907 Holcombe; no solicitations. (The Campaign will continue through March 14) We believe that the obligation to give Tzedakah rests with every Jew regardless of age and stage in life. College students in particular have a special stake in ensuring a strong and creative Jewish future. The UJA is the Jewish organization which funds numerous agencies here in the United States and helps to build and strengthen Jewish communities in Israel and abroad. We encourage your participation in the UJA Campus Campaign as a means to increasing your a.wareness of and deepening your commitment to the Jewish people. Enclosed you will find some additional information along with a pledge card and a return envelope. Your UJA pledge is a year long commitment and can be honored in monthly installments. On the reverse side of this letter is a breakdown of what a pledge represents per day, week, month. Your response signifies that Jewish students on campus not only care about the Jewish tomorrow but are willing to make it a reality.

Though it veils the months to come, it forces us to peer into their reality and painfully make out the shape we wish for our existence, hidden as it may be in the obscurity of our uncaring days. This night that gently veils our year shall be followed by the nights that are the unknown year ahead, and to live within their darkness we must find the hopeful, healing warmth of light. The gentle flame that gives us life knows no superiorities of place or color, and it burns as brightly from the simplest wick as from the most elegant taper. The gentle flame that gives us life must struggle constantly before the winds of time, and he who will not join the struggle consigns the flame to darkness, where each smoldering candle robs us of its warmth. The gentle flame that gives us life is our sole beacon in our search to find the purpose of the world that lies ahead. In the glaring darkness of its unknown days, we must struggle for the words that will bring light, that light and humanity might be. ,,i;i;~~:;i ')relR ,~~ ,C?il1;:i 1?9 ,u•p~~ !~ ,i'IZ:,~ 1,,:; _ .:ii~ ci• t',~ n~~> ',~ ,J i''~lv? llJ~ BARUCH ATTA ADONAY ELOHEYNU MELECH HA-OLAM, ASHER KIDDSHANU B'MITZVOTAV VITZIVANU L'HADLIK NER SHEL YOM TOV.

Praised be the One who has kept us in life through this joyous day, enabling us to share the miracle of our people's life through light. Teach us how to be afraid. Help us fear Your creatures who would do us harm That we might reach into our power And emerge Ourselves unscathed Having helped our enemies become secure enough Not to harm again. Help us stand in awe of all Your creatures That even in ·a face of thoughtless words We might read the holy thought From which it sprang. Help us stand in awe of You And gently place that awe On all Your creatures That as one harmonious community We might do Your awesome will With one united heart, Thereby knowing that all power Can only come from You And so The power of those who come against us And the power residing in ourselves Shall no longer be an object for our fear. We shall accomplish nothing at all if we divide our world and our life 5 into two domains: one in which God's command is paramount, the other governed by the laws ofeconomics, politics, and the 'simple self assertion' of the group .... Stopping one's cars so as not to hear the voice from above is breaking the connection between existence and the meaning of existence. Martin Bubtr A disciple asked the Baal Shem: Why does one who ordinarily feels 6 close to God, sometimes experience a sense of remoteness from the divine presence? He replied: When a parent begins to teach a baby to walk, the parent steadies the child with both hands, and the guiding presence is always felt. Then, bit by bit, the parent moves away, es tablishing 'growing' distances which the child learns to traverse on its own. God may seem to move away from us sometimes, but perhaps He wants us to grow by taking hesitant steps toward Him. Cha.cidic-, 181h C~1111,r_1· With regard to all human traits, the middle of the road is the right path. For example: Do not be hot-tempered, easily angered. Nor, on the other hand, should you be unfeeling like a corpse. Rather, take the middle of the road: keep an even disposition, reserving your anger for occasions when it is truly warranted. Similarly, do not cultivate a desire for luxuries; keep your eye fixed only on genuine necessities. In giving to others, do not hold back what you can afford, but do not give so lavishly that you yourself will be impoverished. Avoid both hysterical gaiety and somber dejection, and instead be calmly joyful always, showing a cheerful countenance. Act similarly with regard to all the dispositions. This is the path followed by the wise. How do we fix these traits into our character? By repeatedly doing them, returning to them until they become second nature. And because these attributes are divine, this path, the one that avoids ex tremes, is called the 'path of God,' and Abraham taught his descen dants to follow it. Whoever follows it gains goodness and blessing, as it is said: "For I have known him, that he might command his children and those who follow him to keep the Lord's path, doing justice and right, that the Lord may fulfill for Abraham the di-vine purpose (Genesis 18.19)."

Your light reveals but the depth of darkness of our own world-- The sorrow, callousness and cruelty we mour,n on this Atonement Eve. Yet when this day comes fully to its end, We would feel purged of sorrow, cleansed of callousness, Tqo gentle in our natures to be cruel. Yet now, when this Atonement Day has but begun, The darkness does obscure what we might be. And so, 0 Tishri moon, we need to raise our lights to yours, To illumine the promise in our own souls, That all might see their way to the promise of the world. )~ L~ p ~i is v r1,(Y ,r ".ii~~~- ',) 5>-Q i_c r-nf .PiC Pi' ~~ '>). 11•1~~, ·IJt~! l'~il}':'f ·1Jf1J BARUCH ATTA ADONAY ELOHEYNU MELECH NA--OLAM, ASHER KIDDSHANU B'MITZVOTAV, VITZIVANU L'HADLIK NER SHEL YOM TOV. Praised be the Lord our God, WhP makes us holy in the act of lighting candles, Whose light may burn the darkness out of our souls, and warm the self within us to which we seek return. READERS The night descends once more on the delusive sunlight of our careless lives, closing the door against our fantasies and leaving us to face - ourselves. How longed-for! Alone, with parents nowhere near, demanding or inquiring; alone, with roommates far away with their problems no longer aggravating ours; alone, with children gone to sleep, leaving us to our own lives and our own desires. Yet how frightening! Alone, without the mirror of others to convice us of our worth, without the excuse of others to blame for what disturbs us. The master of our own mistakes, desires, weaknesses, and longings--our own, whatever their origin, but ours to bear, confront, and overcome--alone. This is a Day then of Alonement, but of Atonement too, as, grappling with the consequences of our weakness, we would seek the strength to act upon our better natures, to value our own worth enough to trust our feelings, and accept the worth of others not as threat or competition, but as insights into a different kind of worth from ours. What I am is good, we would l 1ike to say to ourselves--and believe it. But what I am is also right, we want to say; I have power to determine my own course. For us to atone is no longer to accept a myriad of separate moral systems--my parents', my children's, my friends', my professor's, my employer's, my own. Atonement is to know that there is but one moral system, which is Gods'--and that each of us has equal insight into His will. A small child must be guided, but an adult must come·to see that God reveals Himself equally to those who seek to do the right, who are concerned with others and not themselves alone, and so I need not always accept the words of others which conflict with what I feel is right; nor need I turn aside from others' words in fear lest in accepting them I surrender something of myself. To admit our errors, to confess our faults, we need not abase ourse~ves, or wallow in unworthiness. The source behind our faults is often our failure to admit our worth, to rely on our inner sense of what is right, lest others laugh at us, mistreat us, or profess a higher standard than we can ever reach. Could we on this Day of At one ment feel at one, at home, with ourselves, the cruelties we do which spring from fear, unsureness, guilt, or doubt might disappear. Sometimes we strut and preen too much, yet that too stems from a need to find our worth outside ourselves, through fame or recognition, and if others will not give it, then we must tout ourselves. We shall say many things about ourselves this Atonement Day, confessing error, thoughtlessness, misdeed, and wrong. But before we do, before we honestly confront our failings, we must first confront our virtue, and know that whatever wcongs we have committed, we could not recognize our wrongs were not our basic natures fundamentally, irrevocably, right. What we must seek first of all this day is the conviction of our inner worth, that no matter what we do we are the child of God, a valued and irreplacable jewel in the crown that is His universe. · We shall speak many words this awesome Day. We shall confess to sins we know not, vow an openness we are not secure enough to give, pray ourselves into a virtue we are sure to mar as soon as prayerbooks are closed and intensive introspection ended. The earnestness of our vows, and the humanness of our weakness are all a piece of that tapestry which is our unique an<:rvery special life, whose beauty we shall strive to deepen through this Day in the all-embracing darkness of ourselves, our people, and our God.

All we can and do ask for is better insight, purer faith, fuller strength. We want to grow in holiness of life and in the love of God. For this we ask God's help, for this end we try by earnest prayer to realize better the true vileness of sin, how it serparates us from God, and weakens and defiles us; for this end only we make repentance and seek atonement. -- AN ARGUMENT FOR JUDGMENT MORNING When last we came together it was dark, but healing sleep has brought us back togetber in the light, our souls prepared to sense the d{lYS!Dlills of the year now born, to seek their Source through words and melodies, thoughts and hopes, and the reassuring presence of this portion of our people close at hand. This is the day on which, tradition has it, judgment is determined for men neither wholly righteous nor wholly wicked. To affirm that tradition is to affirm the significance of our actions in the world, to take responsibility for what we have and have not done, for what we want to do, and for what our weakness will not let us do. To judge ourselves as the J,udge of all the world might judge us--how terrifying! Yet how exhilarating! To believe that behind all the changes in the world, some permanent goals can still be sought; that behind all the conflict!i:ig falsehoods, lie still some values we can yet identify as truth. Beneath the sunlight we have come to search for the brightness of that truth--about ourselves, about our people, about the land in which we live, about the work that we must do to burn off the haze which hides these truths from daily view. We are good people, and our failings often blind us to our goodness; yet we are not so good as we would have ourselves believe, and we must seek the road between both exaggerations of our worth. Our people has been oppressed, and oppression still dogs our heels in whatever land we live; yet as individuals we too can act like oppressors, and we must learn how to secure our own survival while still ensuring that we shall survive as a compassionate and moral race. The land in which we live burdens us with injustice it is not yet prepared to cure, with callousness to the suffering. which persists behind the barriers we have built to keep it from our eyes, and with cruelty toward the earth and sky we live between. Yet there is goodness too within this land, and if we blind ourselves to the beauties which grow within its people and its earth, we shall ifnd no foundation upon which to build a new society, no healthy seed from which, with our help and nurture, a just and peaceful land might grow.~·----:::=-=-======------E~h--~f us has"~...,.._ 7. Poor in deeds but r;ich in awe, To plead on behalf of our people and our kind (How desperately do humans need our pleas!) Though we are hardly worthy of our task. God of Abraham, of Isaac, of Jacob, Through whose presence we feel mercy and compassion, Help us fulfill our commission. Let others not suffer for our failings Nor be blamed for our transgressions, For we have missed the mark And overturned an order that once was good. May others not suffer shame for our faults, Nor we suffer shame for theirs. Accept our prayers for our brothers and sisters As though they poured forth from lips schooled in devotion, From those of noble mien and flowing locks. Let no stray thoughts distract us. Turn our grief. into joy and life and peace We must learn to work for truth and peace. May we offer up our prayers without stumbling. 8. 'When you pray, know before whom you stand. In prayer there is the danger of relying on the word, of depending upon the text, of forgetting that the word is a challenge to the soul rather than a substitute for the outburst of the heart ••.. Prayer as a way of speaking is a way that leads nowhere. The text must never be more impor tant than inner devotion, kavahah. The life of prayer depends not so much upon loyalty to custom as upon inner participation; not so much upon th length as upon the depth of the service. Those who run precipitately through the liturgy, rushing in and out of the prayer texts, as if the task were to cover a maximum of space in a minimum of time, will derive little from worship. To be able to pray is to know how to stand still and to dwell upon a word. This is how somw worshipers of the past would act: They would repeat the same word many times, because they loved and cherished it so much that they could not part from it.' There is a classical principle in regard to pra,. yer: Better is a little with inner devotion than much without it After the flood, Noah opened the ark and lookt!d out. He saw the earth desolate, forests and gardens uprooted, corpses visible everywhere. There was no grass. no vegetation; the world was a wasteland. In pain and dismay. he cried out to his Master: Sovcn:ign of all creation, in six days You made the earth and all that grows in it: it was like a garden. like a table: prepan:d for a feast: now You Yourself have brought the work of Your hands to nought. uprooting all that You planted, tearing down all that You built. Why did You not show compassion for Your creatures? God then repJied: 0 faithless shepherd! Now. after the dc1ilruction, You come to Mc and complain. But when I said to you: Make an ark for yourself. for I am going to flood the earth to destroy all ncsh. you did not plead for your_ neighbors! How differently Abraham will act; he will pray on behalf ot the people of Sodom and Gomorrah. And Moses, when his peopk anger Me with their calfofgold, will offer his life for them. But you when you saw that judgment was about to strike the world-you thought only of yourself and your household. while all else perished by fire and water! Then Noah understood that he had sinned. /0. \\'heren:r you stand to lift up your i:yes to heaven, that place is a Holy of Holies. Every human being created by God in God's own in,age and likeness is a High Priest. Each da}· of your life is the: Day of.-'\ tone ment; and every word spoken from the heart is the name of the Lord. Therefore the sin of any of us, whether of commission or omi:.s1on, bring~ the ruin of a whole world in its train. S. A11.1l1, Tlr,., Dibhuk ~ esponsive1· II. We shall affirm the mighty holiness of this day, a day of awe and dread, for µpon it is God's Kingdom exalted, and His throne established in covenantal iove. When we really begin a new year it is decided, And when we actually repent it is determined: Who shall be truly alive, And who shall merely exist; Who shall be tormented by the fire of ambition, And whose hopes shall be quenched by the waters of failure; Who shall be pierced py the sharp sword of envy, And who shall be torn by the wild beast of resentment; Who shall hunger for companionship, And who shall thirst for approval; Who shall be shattered by the earthquake of social change, And who shall be plagued by the pressures of confmrmity; Who shall be strangled by insecurity, And who shall be beaten into submission; Who shall be content with his lot, And who shall go wandering in sear.ch of satisfaction; Who shall be serene, And who shall be distraught; But Teshuvah, Tefillah and Tzedakah, Repentance, Prayer and Just Action, Have the power to change The character of our lives, Therefore let us repent, pray, and do right, So that this may be a genuinely new year of life. W c do not ask that our past sins may be forgiven in the sense that their II!. effects may be cancelled, for that is impossible. All we can ask and do ask for is better insight, purer faith, fuller strength. We want to grow in holiness of life and in the love of God. For this we ask God's help. for this we try by earnest prayer to realise better the true vileness of sin, how it separates us from God, and weakens and defiles us; for this only we make repentance and seek atonement. 13. Open the gates for us now when the gates are closing. For the day is passing. Day is passing. The sun turns home. Let us come into your gates. Please, God, spare ••• Please forgive •.• Please have mercy ••• And please forget. And please forbear. And please absolve. Overcome rebellion and wrong. As we sit here in meditation and prayer, the last lingering grains of sand filter through the hour glass of the year, the relentless hand of time hangspoised, about to mark the end of the Day of Atonement. The dusk draws ever closer. The close of the day is symbolic of the close of life. In all the calendar of Judaism there is no moment more solemn than this one. All through the day the flood of prayer has ebbed and flowed. Now, as the shadows of the night draw near, we feel a new pitch of intensity. The -tery word "Neilah" teaches a lesson. In Hebrew the word means the locking of the gate. In ancient days, as long as the sun shone, the gates were locked. From then on, no one could enter or leave. Later on, the name was applied to the last service of Yom Kippur. For in this day the Jew saw a spiritual gate. He say Yom Kippur as the opportunity to begin again, to change, to start over once more, to enter into a new relationship with his God. But as the Great Fast came to an end ••• "Open for us the gates--at the hour of the closing of the gates. The day is nearly done. The sun is low; the day is growing late. O, let us come into Your gates at last." In our lives many gates swing shut. As a man begins life, it spreads before him like a corridor with many doors. But as he walks down this corridor, the doors close behind him, one by one, year by year. This is a teaching of the Neilah service: Remember the unopened •doors. Enter them before they close. We live only once. Do we not want to live fully? The corridor of life stretches before us. Each one of us must perforce walk down its stately length. The gates do not stand open forever; as we walk down the corridor they shut behind us. And at the end they are all closed, except the one dark door that leads to the ultimate chamber of God. This then is the meaning of Neilah: the call to the doors which we ne_: rl -111:l :,JIU a,tm .· 11111 11 STOOEf([ ltND commvNJN R.esPONSE TO J-fl&H HDLll>IIY SERVICES Dear Rabbi: My husband & I participated in your Rosh Hashanah service at the Religion Center last weekend.
