Embracing the festival of lights, Chanukka, we are reminded of our people?s age old battle for survival. The lights of Chanukka, ever increasing in number, remind us of the importance of increased resolve in fighting those who by their actions or words seek to denigrate or destroy freedom. Remarkable changes are happening around the world. Who would have dreamt just a few months ago that the Berlin Wall which symbolized for generations the bitter divisions both political and social that exist in our so?ciety, would come crashing down? Who could have imagined just a year ago that hundreds of thousands of Soviet Jews would be allowed to leave for freedom in Israel, America and other parts of the world? And yet, these changes are happening before our very eyes. In every part of this globe the battles for freedom rage on. Jews have been at the forefront of the fight for freedom around the globe. As we light our Chanukka Menorah this year it shall burn brighter with the taste of victory in our midst. Our little Menorah teaches us a very powerful lesson: One candle can indeed light another. And another. May the message of freedom that has been fought for over so many years be the taste of the new year to come. And may we, in our own way, increase our resolve to cherish the freedoms which we possess already. B?shalom, Sanford D.

Sad that I will not be at the reigns of such a vibrant | organization but joyful that a new and very capable administration | will take the helm. Over the past three years our accomplishments | have been many. Our temple has grown from 80 to almost 300 | families. We purchased our property from the Bureau of Land Man- f agement and secured permanent financing. Our rabbinical search | was very successful and Rabbi Akselrad is leading our Congregation | into a new era. The religious school has grown from 40 students to | over 100. And maybe most important of all we have shown the | community that we are here to stay. Naturally these past three years would not have been so | successful without the assistance of many many people. There is not | enough space to thank each one of you personally so I will just say | ?THANKS? to everyone. Of course there is an exception to every | rule so I must thank my patient and understanding wife LINDA. | Without her I could not have survived the past three years. This is only the beginning of a bright future. The new admini- | stration will ensure that we will grow at a steady pace, that our f projects in the future such as the building of the new sanctuary and offices will be realized, new programs will be instituted. I know that I share these visions with our incoming Presi?dent Eileen Kollins and her Board. I am confident that our new Board will continue our outstanding tradition. Shalom, Kenneth J. Schnitzer RABBI AND CONGREGRNTS ATTEND BIENNIAL From November 2nd through the 6th Rabbi Akselrad, Congregants Eileen Kollins, Marilyn Glovinsky, and Sam and Hortense Alper attended the 60th General Assembly of the UAHC Biennial Convention. Held in New Orleans, the conven?tion addressed current issues such as the aids crisis, gay rights and single parent problems. Our congregants attended workshops and strolled through the vendor area investigating everything for the Temple from software to furniture. TOT SHABBAT SCHEDULED FOR DECEMBER 23RD Mark your calendars now for December 23rd as we continue our successful program once again this year. Tot Shabbat is a special Sabbath morning program designed for chil?dren 2- 5 years of age and their siblings. Last year over 80 children participated in the Tot Shabbat program. Geared especially for younger children, Rabbi Akselrad will con?duct a special abbreviated service for the children. Following services, children will participate in exciting arts and crafts proj?ects and have lunch to complete a fun filled morning. This program?s theme is ?Cele?brating Chanukka.? This program is chaired by Joni Aksel?rad and sponsored by Sisterhood. It is open to the entire community but reservations are a must.

Under the direction of ALAN CHENIN and LORI FRANKL. the JUNIOR CHOIR will enhance the service with their selections of Shabbat melodies, and they will now be performing at all Family Services. DUES INCREASE This year has been an exciting and challenging year for all of us at Congregation Ner Tamid. Our growth has been tremendous, almost reaching 300 families. We have added new programs, such as adult education and continued successful programs like Meal and Spiel. Temple life is busy with Hebrew School, Confirmation class, preparing for Bar and Bat Mitzvah?s, New Member Sabbaths and many many more. A mitzvah, our growth has also created some problems. With so many more families to assist and functions taking place in Temple we find ourselves stretching our resources to the limit. In order to not only keep up with the growth, but also forge ahead, the Board of Trustees have determined that we must increase our dues by $50.00 for full members, as well as associates. We are also adding a new dues category - Gold Menorah for $800.00. Very shortly you will be receiving your dues statements for 1990. Don?t forget to take advantage of the tax laws and pay your dues before December 31st. I know you will agree with us that this dues increase, the first in more than 5 years, is necessary. We will continue to work with you and for you.

GOLDEN CHfil Dear Seniors: Our yearly Hanukkah party date has been changed from the 14th of December to the 21st of December due to circumstances that called for a change of date. We are planning a lovely luncheon and I am sure that it will be! The party will be held on our regular meeting day so that it is easy to remember. The menu will be just scrumptious. I am looking forward to such good food and lots of fun. Are there any of our members that can entertain us, like singing and playing the piano? Please tell us about it and wouldn?t that be fun. I get so excited when I write about good happenings! This party is for paid up members so please get your dues paid. We will have election of officers in December for the year 1990. On January 18th we will have Shellie Weinberg, who is with Paine ^^tVebber. She will speak with us on investments and tell us the best way to manage our money. There will be a question and answer period. Thank you, Dorothy Herman NTTY N'lTY is experiencing whatcanonly be called astronomical success. During the past month our members participated in programs on A.I.D.S. and communication. NTTY?s first Bagel Brunch was a tremen?dous success. A special thanks to Sisterhood and Sophie for their contributions for the sale. We are all looking forward to seeing YOU at our next Bagel Brunch on Sunday, December 3rd. During Thanksgiving weekend ten members of NTTY participated in SWFTY?s regional Fall Conclave which was held in Albuquerque, NM. The youth participated in religious, social, and educational pro?grams on the environment. More impor- tandy, NTTY had the opportunity to show off their ruach (spirit) when they wore their new tie-dyed t-shirts. December will be a slow month for NTTY as we take a three week vacation. However, we will be working on our pro?gramming for next year which includes a very special program on abortion. With Rabbi Akselrad and a guest speaker from Planned Parenthood, NTTYites and their parents will engage in a discussion of the moral and religious issues facing our legis?lature and our youth. Watch for more details of this program in next month?s bulletin. If you would like any details about NTTY, contact Shira Lewis at 451 -0866 or Alan Hirsh at 458-8066.
