KlSLEV-TEVET—SHEVAT 5761

Hanukah is a joyous holiday.
lt is filled with songs, foods,
celebrations, games and gifts. It is
blessed by the increase of a candle
each night for eight nights. As the

light increases so does ourjoy. (Are not most of us
moved by the sight of a fully lit Hanukah menorah on the
last night.) Hanukah is the only extended Jewish holiday
(Passover and Sukkot are examples of two others) that
doesn’t really change from night to night. The only
difference in celebration is that on the first night we say
three blessings and on the other seven nights we say two
blessings.

Though it is a minor holiday on our yearly
calendar of holidays and holy days, it certainly stands
quite tall. Many of us look to Hanukah as our Jewish
beacon of light in December. Though we don’t want to
overplay it, we relish the fact that during this busy holiday
season we have something to look forward to or hold on
to. Hanukah is a holiday of depth and meaning. It
reminds us of why we are Jews and what it means to be a
human being. Hanukah teaches us about courage and
conviction and community. Hanukah teaches us about
faith and belief and commitment. Hanukah teaches us
about leadership and life.

in modern times, Hanukah also teaches us about
the act of giving. It is true that we give gifts to our
relatives and friends. it is a chance to reach out and say
that l care about you or that I love you. We shouldn’t
forget though that there are a lot of people out there who
have no one to receive a gift from or even give a gift to.
We shouldn't forget about all of these people. Some of
these people are Jewish, most of them are not, but they
could all use the gift of love in some way or form.

Maybe this year at Hanukah, send a donation to
one of our many Lexington or Central Kentucky agencies
that work with those who are alone, who feel unloved and
unwanted. Whether it is the Hope Center, the Salvation
Army, the Nest or any of the several places in town, which
could let someone know that someone else cares.

The Maccabees fought to preserve Judaism and
its way of life for us. Let us fight for the life of so many
who have lost hope by sharing with them the Ii ht of our

menorah. z , ;

A Message from
the President

This past fall, the Temple's
- ”1 Social Action Committee and the
’ Synagogues Men' s Club started thinking
about the possibility of participating in the Lexington Habitat
for Humanity's program to build a home for a qualified low
income family. After several meetings and many discussions,
we decided to join forces in this endeavor. The entire
Jewish community in Lexington has now decided to come
together to sponsor and build a house through the Lexington
Habitat for Humanity.

Lexington Habitat is the local affiliate of Habitat for
Humanity International. Habitat has built 154 homes in
Lexington and serves families of low income who meet
Habitat's home ownership requirements. Families are
selected based on their need for housing, their ability to pay
and their willingness to work with Habitat. All families must
agree to provide 250 to 500 hours of "sweat equity" by
working on their own home or other Habitat homes and by
attending workshops on parenting, financial management
and home maintenance. Each family has a $38,000
mortgage, which is repaid over 20 years.

As a Habitat sponsor, we are required to raise
$35,000 and provide volunteers to actually assist in the
building of the home. We hope to build this house in May
and June of 2001. To participate in a build this spring, we
must make formal application for sponsorship by the end of
December. For this reason, a community-wide appeal will be
going out at the beginning of December to begin raising the
necessary funds. Please support this project. If you are
interested in assisting with the build in any way, please
contact the Temple office. This is an incredible opportunity
for the Jewish community to work together for a wonderful
goal.

HAPPY HANUKKAHH

MUSIC NEWS

This year the Sunday morning schedule allows
our Religious School students to have more Jewish
music experiences than in the recent past. Individual as
well as combined grade levels meet for 30 minute
music sessions. During that time, the students are
exposed to a variety of songs that address Shabbat and
holiday celebrations, liturgy, and Jewish values. During
the year we will listen to music recorded by famous
contemporary Jewish singers/songwriters, and we‘ll also
explore traditional melodies as well.

Mazel Tov to the members of our TAI Makhela
who recently accompanied Jewish singer/song-
writer Doug Cotler during his recent appearance in
Lexington. They did an outstanding job!

The Makhela is open to all Temple children in
kindergarten through fifth grade. The Makhela meets
monthly during Religious School hours, and they lead
the congregation in song during Family Shabbat
services each month. Contact Sandy Adland at 269-
2979 to become a member. It‘s not too late to join!
