Most couples marry with a com-mitment and a belief that “no matter what happens they will
be able to work it out” because love can overcome all adversity. Although “…in sickness and in health…until death do us part” phrases are not part of a Jewish ceremony, it is certainly the expectation under the Chuppah. “Sickness” usually is thought of as the flu, stomach virus or a broken bone. Couples envision growing old together with declining physical capa-bilities, but still being capable of walking hand and hand into the sunset. What is not envisioned is how a spouse with a chronic illness can cause a severe shift in the rela-tionship.
Few people are prepared for the drastic effects of chronic illness on a couple’s emotional bond, intimate relationship and financial life. However, there are ways to cope.
The chronically ill partner may feel guilt over not being able to contribute and be-lief that they have become a burden to their spouse. They may find it difficult to shift from their independent lifestyle to one of dependence on their spouse. This can lead to feelings of depression causing the de-velopment of emotional distance between themselves and their spouse, friends and family.A healthy partner is likely to feel helpless. They have to shift from fixing to mana-
Coping with Chronic Illness
ging the consequences of the illness. The healthy partner struggles with the loss of a “normal” life, angry about the changes in the situation, and guilt over not handling the changes better. They may feel aban-doned by their spouse, friends and family. Overwhelmed with the responsibility of caring for both partner and anxious about the future, they may also distance themsel-ves from others.
All of those negative feelings are normal and natural. They are normal reactions to the abnormal situation. Unfortunately, ne-gative feelings are often viewed as “bad” or wrong. It is normal to go through a grie-ving period for the relationship that was, as it will now be inevitably changed. There is grieving for the future as plans will be al-tered. Both partners grieve, but most likely in different ways, and these differences can lead to a sense of abandonment, isola-tion, anger, guilt and depression.
An open dialogue can help to alleviate fe-els of abandonment, isolation and depres-sion. By listening to each other’s feelings they can be acknowledged in a healthy way, maintaining a healthy connection in spite of the changes. Empathy with what each partner is going through creates and maintains a sense of closeness and caring. Through the open dialogue the couple can begin to develop a new plan for the future.

Jewish Heritage Night at the Blue Claws Stadium is always an enjoyable night out. A chance to see our fellow
community members, enjoy the game, and of course the kosher hotdogs and hambur-gers.
I was contemplating on the word heritage, and with the upcoming holiday of Shavuos, I thought of the verse, “Torah Tziva Lanu Moshe Morahsa Kehilat Yaakov,” The To-rah was commanded to us by Moses, a he-ritage for the congregation of Jacob.
That week in Shul, we read Parshat Bas-midbar, which means “in the desert.” Why was Torah given in a desert? Why wouldn’t the Torah be given in a nice picturesque scenic area, with easy airport access, and posh hotels nearby?
Jewish Heritage Every Night
By Rabbi Moshe GourarieChabad Jewish CenterToms River, NJ
The answer is given that had the Torah been given in a specific country or loca-le, the inhabitants of that specific place would claim the Torah as theirs. They would then claim that the Torah must be learned and practiced their way. Which is why G-d gave the Torah in a “no-man’s land” to tell us that the Torah is the heritage of every Jew, regardless of where he or she lives and notwithstan-ding their background or prior level of knowledge.
In a sense, Jewish Heritage Night is one night a year when we are celebrating so-mething, a heritage that is ours the entire year. In other words, our Jewish pride shouldn’t be limited to one night a year at the Blue Claws, or a couple a times of year in Shul, rather it is something we should carry with us and inculcate in our children on a daily basis.
So many of our daily dealings and oc-currences are opportune learning mo-ments. Each and every time, we must re-member our rich and beautiful heritage and that should dictate to us how we act, react, and interact.
On a practical note, the summer is ap-proaching, school will be out, and we eagerly embrace the fun and leisure of the summer months. Let us remember to continue celebrating our heritage through the summer. Spend a few minu-

As I enter the final months of my three year term as President of the New Jersey State Association of
Jewish Federations, I want to share some thoughts with you.
I am grateful for the years of service and leadership positions I have held, as they made me deeply aware of the dynamic that is the Jewish community. I have experien-ced first-hand the unique energy of enga-gement, both from community members and activists who give freely of their time, talents, resources and efforts to improve
Building a Stronger Community Future through Advocacy
By Ruth Cole, President, NJ State Association of Jewish Fede-rations
the lives of others. I have felt the compas-sion from these caring people for the con-cerns of those with whom we share our life experiences.
I admire their willingness to take bold and innovative action in collaboration with others, as we pursue solutions that benefit the community and individuals alike. In-deed, the success of a significant number of State Association initiatives through the last year is a testament to that dynamic and commitment.
As I highlight the State Association’s va-rious accomplishments below, it might be difficult to quantify the State Association’s dollar for dollar return to individual federa-tions and members of our community. Most of the advocacy, networking, education, and government affairs functions in Tren-ton and Washington are carried out on be-half of the family of Jewish Federations and their affiliated and beneficiary agencies.
There is little doubt however, that the ul-timate beneficiary is each member of the
Jewish community. Let me share with you an overview of those concerns which the Association has addressed and endeavored to alleviate including attacks on Israel’s legitimacy, anti-Israel activities on New Jersey college campuses, senior services for those aging in place, senior health care, transportation and nutrition needs, programming for those with cognitive and physical disabilities and other challenges.
We are playing a pivotal role in ensuring that proposed federal and state guidelines do not place a greater burden on the ca-pacity of our direct service providers, our nonprofit safety net agencies, so they are not hampered by bureaucratic red tape, but rather buoyed by capacity building poli-cies.
The following is a sampling of other ac-complishments this year, as we worked to meet the many challenges facing our com-munities:
The aftermath of Hurricane Sandy was ty-pical of the role played by the State Asso-ciation in assisting community agencies to provide direct assistance to its individual members. Serving as liaison between the Office of Homeland Security and Pre-paredness, the State Association was, and continues to be, the conduit for New Jersey’s emergency management alerts. At the same time the State Association wor-ked to identify funding and guidance re-sources available from the State, national and state nonprofit and other assistance or-ganizations. Using its community network of partners in the Jewish and multi faith based community, the State Association aggressively advocated for a quick respon-se from Congress in delivering aid to the state’s victims of Sandy’s wrath.Working with federation community, the
Stop Iran Task Force of the CRC of Me-troWest/CNJ and faith based groups, Iran sanctions were enacted prohibiting any go-vernmental contracting unit from entering into a contract with entities unless first re-ceiving a certification that the entity is not doing business with Iran’s energy sector.
The State Association played a significant role on behalf of Jewish nursing homes in conjunction with our federation communi-ty relations network and leading interest groups in advocacy efforts that resulted in the restoration in the FY 2013 State Bud-get of over $60 million cut in previous budgets in Medicaid reimbursement for nursing home patients.
Reaching out to other faith based groups, the State Association helped in the initia-tive that resulted in the restoration in the FY 2013 State Budget of 50% of cuts in technology services funding to non-public schools where there had been no funding for the last 3 years.
In conjunction with the state’s federations, the State Association supported student efforts at Rutgers University and other college campuses to counter anti-Israel ac-tivity and led the way to the creation by Rutgers of a standing Advisory Committee on Jewish Student Life.
To unify and strengthen the community’s voice on policy, programs and funding for special needs and developmental disabled, the State Association administered and created a new “Jewish Community Wor-king Group on Special Needs.”
Three leaders of the federation communi-ty joined Governor Chris Christie on his trip to Israel, for which the State Associa-tion secured a commitment from the then

On the morning of April 28, the pho-nes were buzzing for members of the Jewish community. The Jewish
Federation of Ocean County held its annual Super Sunday Phone-a-thon at Firs-tEnergy Park, the home of the Lakewood BlueClaws. The Federation gives special thanks to the BlueClaws and their staff for generously donating the facility for us to have an incredible afternoon.
During the day, many annual Super Sun-day volunteers were in attendance but the-re were also many new and young faces. Due to the high energy and strong spirits the Federation collected over 500 pledges and raised over $54,000.
This year the Federation introduced a Su-per Sunday Teen Committee to help with outreach to bring in youth for the day as well as future events. Alexa Eisenhauer, age 16, from Congregation Beth Am Sha-lom said, “Volunteering at Super Sunday gave me a chance to reach out to people that are kind enough to donate to such a wonderful cause. It was also a great op-
Super Sundayportunity to spend time with friends while doing such a great thing. It was a great fee-ling knowing that I was changing people’s lives by just one phone call.”
Throughout the day different shifts of volunteers spent their time on a beautiful morning and afternoon to help Federation’s Annual Campaign. Another first timer, Mallory Freidman, age 17, from Congre-gation Beth Am Shalom, knew that it was a special day and a necessity to wake up on a Sunday morning to help out. “It is im-portant for me to help out my community. I was glad that I was able to help.”
One of the best parts of the day was to see parents sit next to their children while they both were busy dialing and making phone calls together. Ethan Rosen, age 17, from Congregation B’nai Israel, has been co-ming to Super Sunday as long as he can remember. “I volunteered for Super Sun-day because I really enjoy helping out the Jewish Federation to get the funds that they need to help others. I have been doing this for my whole life and it always feels
great to give back.”
It has been a few years since Federation has done a traditional Super Sunday and it went off without a hitch. Federation’s Annual Campaign Officer, Jason Krane feels, “Super Sunday is a great day to see the community come together and make a difference. To have volunteers of all ge-
nerations, parents and children, spend a few hours of their day to give back to the community is something special. We look forward to utilizing this success for the remainder of the annual campaign and for our future.”

candidate for Governor before the general election. This symbolizes increased profile of the State Association and relationship with the Governor’s Office.
Israel advocacy remains a top agenda prio-rity of the State Association. As a response to Israel’s “Pillar of Defense,” response to victimization by missiles from Gaza, the State Association secured statements from our two U.S. senators and all members of the NJ congressional delegation in support of Israel’s right to defend itself.
With the firebombing of synagogues in Bergen County, the State Association as-sisted by coordinating the response in va-rious federation communities through pro-gramming support, maintaining a liaison with government officials and reinforcing relationship with the State Office of Ho-meland Security and Preparedness.
The viability of our nonprofits and chari-ties is another priority of the State Asso-ciation. It led the Jewish and NJ nonprofit community advocacy effort that resulted in the decision by the NJ Division of Consu-mer Affairs to forgo submitting a formal rule change proposal that would have re-quired burdensome reporting requirements
in the area of designated giving.The State Association also was instrumen-tal in securing a commitment from the Governor’s Red Tape Review Commission for a monthly meeting on rules, policies and statutes that hinder nonprofits from doing business in NJ.
Although the aforementioned initiatives of the State Association are but a sampling, the extensive list of our activities provides a broad plate of Jewish community inter-ests and opportunities for involvement. Our community’s willingness to be en-gaged provides the dynamic to move our agenda forward. It is that dynamic that has raised the profile of the State Association in the eyes of state government officials, faith based leaders and interest advocacy groups. It is the dynamic through which together we will continue to move from strength to strength.
I am confident, too, that with the strong professional leadership and dedication of our Executive Director Jacob Toporek, our efforts, together with our wonderful com-munity members and leaders, we will co-llectively build brighter futures for all who seek our help.

For the sixth year in a row, the Lakewood BlueClaws celebrated Jewish Heritage
Night. The minor league baseball team and the Jewish Federations of Ocean County and Monmouth County once again brought kos-her food, the Israeli flag, and a host of other Jewish elements to the stadium. The event was cele-brated on May 7, 2013.
Before the game against The Lexington Legends, there was a parade in the field, the singing of the Israeli National Anthem “Hatikvah”, and the raising of the Israeli flag. The kosher food was provided by Yossi’s Deli.
Danny Goldberg, Executive Di-rector of the Jewish Federation of Ocean County, said this event is a chance for the community to be “recognized as part of the mosaic of different ethnic groups” that
make up Ocean County.
In 2008, the first BlueClaw’s Jewish Heritage Night included a celebration of Israel’s 60th birthday. Since then, the event is always scheduled around the time of Yom Ha’Atzmaut, Israel Independence Day, and “has be-come a way for the local Jewish community to display its strong connection to Israel,” Goldberg said.
This year the honor of throwing out the first pitch on Jewish He-ritage Night went to the Vice President of Jewish Family and Children’s Services, Michael Berman, Esq.
Jewish Heritage Night has sim-ply become a nice night out for Ocean County’s Jewish families, and a chance to be part of the ac-tion at the ballpark.

of 2012. Two hundred and sixty worshippers from the congrega-tion, various churches and the community were in attendance and it was a true testament to Rabbi Jack, who treasured this service.Rabbi Michael S. Jay, newly ins-talled spiritual leader of the JCC,
continued the tradition of wors-hipping from the prayer pamphlet written by Rabbi Jack specifica-lly for this service. Delivering the sermon was a great friend of Rabbi Jack and the JCC of LBI, Father Steve Kluge, Pastor of St. Francis Church in Brant Beach. He shared with everyone that when the congregation lost Rabbi Jack, he also lost “his rabbi.”A special presentation was made to Rabbi Jack’s widow, Ali, and their family. New Torah mantels were designed with a dedication to the Rabbi, and members of the family marched them around the sanctuary. In addition, new kiddish cups, candlesticks, Ha-vdallah set and challah plate to honor the Rabbi were displayed on the bimah.The service included music by the Island Singers as well as an elaborate Oneg Shabbat prepared by the Sisterhood of the JCC of LBI.

Manchester Hadassahcoming events
By Roslyn SachsMay 16, 6:30 pm, Willow Hall, is our regular Hadassah Meeting and hope you all join us to hear our guest speaker and partake of our refreshments.
Melanie Romaglio, the travel planner, is eager to hear from you about joining with Hadassah on the December cruise. This cruise is NOT only for Hadassah mem-
bers. Everyone is welcome.
Your donations and cards are most happily accepted by Sonya Wallace and HMO by Gus Tar-ter. This is also the time of year, happily, where there are many celebrations to acknowledge. Use your telephone and get on board with your information and donations and that also includes the Trees ordered from Roz Ho-chhauser.
We want to make Our Annual Card Party, on June 13 at Willow Hall, a huge success. Please get your tables organized and Call Mickie Price for your tickets, 732-657-0824. If you have al-ready purchased your ticket, (for an earlier scheduled card party) it is valid. Talk this up with your friends and neighbors and make this another victory event for Ha-dassah. This is another wonderful way to say hello to our returning Snow Birds.
Our Presidents, Sophie Ruder-man and Shirley Spilke, annou-nced that Hadassah and JNF
are partnering in a major event in Beersheba. There will be a dumpsite cleared to allow for a forest, 12,000 seat amphitheater, man-made lake, walking path, etc. All monies for trees from July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2015 will be allocated for that ventu-re. They are literally cleaning up a dumpsite (no kidding) to crea-te a magnificent park. Trees will be $18.00 to each donor. This is a living wonderful way to parti-cipate. Call Roz Hochhauser to order your trees and hopefully to commemorate a joyous event.
Mickie Price has a “CHAI” Tea during the summer in the works. Please keep an eye out on the Creeper and Bulletin for more in-formation detailed.
Don’t forget Life Membership. It is $212.00 (a onetime cost) and you or your loved ones are mem-bers forever. Call Roz Sachs, wri-te the check, and the rest will be taken care of.
Shalom, until next time.
Programs supported by Jewish Federations encourage greater academic engagement for Ethiopian-Israeli students. Through its School Mediator program, the Ethiopian National Project (ENP), which is funded by Jewish Federations, sends specialists in education, social work and cultural mediation to schools with large concentrations of Ethiopian-Israeli students. The media-tors not only work to engage Ethiopian-Israeli students and their families, but also to educate the entire school on the cultural differences of this unique population.
To learn more about ENP’s School Mediator program visit: http://www.enp.org.il/en/programs/School_Cultural_Media-tors/
