KOL BAMIDBAR PAGE 2 January 2000 v- From The President: LESSONS FOR THE FUTURE We are coming to the close of the twentieth century and preparing to begin a new millennium. Midbar Kodesh Temple is ready. We'll soon have a new building, a new rabbi, and a new administration. These will be the first of many changes. The annual meeting of the board of directors will take place on January 9, 2000. At that time I will step down from the presidency. The past five years, two as vice president and three as president, have been challenging as well as fulfilling. I have felt and appreciated the continued encouragement that many of you have provided me. I will remain on the board of trustees and support the new president with the same energy that I always have. I have always felt it to be an honor to help build the congregation and make Henderson/ Las Vegas a better place for Jews to live. I have learned many things about myself and the community in which I live. ,:It takes an effort to create something good. Just like family, friends and school, you get out of things what you put into them. I feel enriched by what Midbar Kodesh Temple has given my family and me. I will always be grateful to this congregation for entrusting me with its future and will carry with me the experi-ence of being your president for many years to come. Thank You! (SsSSSSfg&jES?

With this support, Yeladim Academy will earn much needed athletic and educational equipment. Our goal is to collect 30,000 labels during the school year. We are trying to earn an overhead projector, an electric stapler, a long reach stapler, a big screen microscope, and a cassette player. You can help by saving labels from hundreds of different Campbell's products. Eligible products include Campbell's? soups, Pepperidge Farm? bread, cookies and Goldfish?, V8? and tomato juices, V8 Splash? juice, Franco- American?

Collection Drive, contact Denise Schnitzer, at Yeladim Academy, 458-3555. Ma'ay an Adult Education News Great news for adults who would love to be able to converse in Hebrew, albeit on an elementary level at the beginning. Toby Rosenbush will conduct a beginner's Hebrew Ulpan. Classes will start on Sunday, January 16th at 11:30 AM. The Ulpan method was developed in Israel to integrate newcomers as quickly as possible into the mainstream. Almost every international language institution uses the Ulpan method to teach languages. You'll leam how to communicate in the shops, at social gatherings, at home, etc. We'll sing and laugh-all in Hebrew! Simple Hebrew reading is, of course, part of the program, and if you can't read, well, we'll teach you. We must have at least ten students in the class. The hour can be adjusted half an hour earlier or later to suit the majority convenience. Call the synagogue office at 454-4848 to register. There is no charge for the 10 week class, only for the materials used. Ma'ayan has been meeting every Tuesday night from 6pm to 7:30pm. This education program is designed for post b'nai mitzvah students through 12th grade. The first unit, led by Steven Doctors, focused on Jewish Identity. The students have discussed many difficult issues, such as "Is Judaism a culture?", the Law of Return and the differing opinions regarding patrilinear descent. Larry Davidson has now taken over from Steven to lead the second unit, "Jews Among the Nations." This eight week unit discusses the Diaspora, the practices of Jews in other countries, and the challenges facing American Jews. Any student interested in joining the class is encouraged to contact the synagogue office at 454-4848. You deserve to treat yourself to finally be able to speak Hebrew on a simple level, so call now!!! Shalom Ulhit-raot! (Be seeing you!) Toby Rosenbush KOL BAMIDBAR PAGE 5 January 2000 Office Update by Maria Scher So here we are at the beginning of a new millennium. New board members, new statements, it all seems to be coming together. It's the time for the year's resolutions when everyone joins a gym or gives up chocolate, only to go back to their regular way of life in a month or so. I took this opportunity to move into a new apartment. It's very exciting and brings with it much opportunity. For example, I can eat whatever I want whenever I want. If I want cookies for dinner, I eat cookies for dinner. This is every child's dream! However, since I am an adult, this move provided the opportunity for more adult choices as well. I have decided to keep kosher. This is a big leap. I did not grow up in a kosher home. I do not have relatives who keep kosher. This is a solo flight with lots of support from home, but it's up to me how it turns out. So what about you? Will you be exercising every night after dinner, swimming laps at the pool, or giving up sweets? Will you decide to come to Shabbat services on a regular basis, learn to read Hebrew, or keep kosher? When I look back on past attempts at new year's resolutions, losing weight, working out, and other less spiritual avenues, I find they are so easily left by the wayside after only a few weeks. Perhaps, resolutions along spiritual lines will be better kept. Etz chayim: It is a tree of life to them that hold fast to it and all of it's supporters are happy. It may not be easy, but this year, try to make a resolution that will be rewarding enough to stick with for the rest of your life. 8 s . 8s 8?. & S? f f e 8*\ 8s ? i ?5, tt\e \ 8* Women's Social Club Mah Jongg every Monday night.

A community liaison is needed to work with Federation and other outside agencies to be certain Midbar Kodesh is represented at community gatherings. Please contact the office (454-4848) if you would like to help Midbar Kodesh Temple! Midbar Kodesh Temple has over 20 students in 18-26 year old age group and 14 of those have selected to be members of the synagogue. A special NO FEE membership is available to young Jewish people at the Temple. We encouraged this age group to become members and participate in synagogue life. Whether they chose to sit on committees, attend services or work with youth, their efforts and talents are appreciated and needed. Several young adult members are already involved at the synagogue as teachers, tutors or youth advisors. Cantor Bob Fisher is currently looking for Bar and Bat Mitzvah tutors to help with the over 20 students now in training. KOL BAMIDBAR PAGE 6 January 2000 JOCELYN POLOTT BAT MITVZAH Jocelyn Elyse Hollander Polott will be welcoming the new millennium and the new responsibilities of being a Jewish woman simultaneously. On January 15, 2000, Jocelyn will be called to the Torah as the first Bar/Bat Mitzvah of Midbar Kodesh Temple during the next 1000 years. Jocelyn is a native Nevadan, the oldest child of Maria and Steve Polott and sister to Evan. Jocelyn has developed good friendships and a more enlightened meaning of being Jewish as an involved member of USY. She also works hard at being a straight 'A' student at Greenspun Jr. High. Jocelyn has a natural talent for playing the flute and has enjoyed doing so for over three years. She did not show quite as much talent for softball, but during the past five years her perseverance has paid off. Today she plays first base and is one of the most reliable hitters on the team. Of course, like every other thirteen-year-old, Jocelyn loves to instant message her friends on AOL, going to the mall, and the telephone! On Saturday morning, she will be reciting Haftorat Bo from the book of Jeremiah, the Maftir and two Aliyahs as well as delivering a D'var Torah. Her parents, brother and all of her family and friends who are traveling from out of state will em-brace this milestone of Judaism with love and pride. Mazel TOY to Jocelyn! CURIOUS ABOUT LIVING IN espailb If living in Israel is your short term goal or a distant dream, Tnuat AM can help you explore the road to aliyah - relocation to Israel. We provide information about employment, education, housing, finances, learning Hebrew, pilot trips, introductions to Israeli families, and more. Our activities will link you with other Americans who are investigating the possibilites of aliyah. Thousands of Conservative Jews have made aliyah from North America and are contributing significantly to Israeli society. Join us! For information, please call Conservative Judaism's Tnuat AM office at 212-533-7800, ext. 2021, or e-mail: aliyahcenter@compuserve.com.

Jesse is a native Las Vegan. Jesse is the son of Dr. and Mrs. Joel Stokes. Jesse has one brother, Adam, a law student at Tulane University, and one sister, Alexis, a Dental Hygiene student at Northern Arizona University at Flagstaff. His grandmother is Helen Serlin of Las Vegas, Nevada. Jesse's friends and relatives will be coming from local, national, and international areas to help celebrate this milestone with Jesse and his family. Jesse attended Warren Walker Elementary school and is currently a seventh grade student at Warren Walker Middle School. Jesse is an excellent student with a particular interest in snow skiing, track, and computers. Jesse's Haftorah, Beshalach, has the distinction of being the longest Haftorah of the year, and his Torah portion commemorates Moses leading the children of Israel across the Red Sea to freedom. Jesse has learned from his studies and preparations for his Bar Mitzvah that great effort is needed for such accomplishments. Please join in the celebration of Jesse's Bar Mitzvah, "A Special Day in the life of a Special Young Man." Mazel Tov to Jesse!
