FROM THE DESK OF OUR RABBINIC INTERN, WARNER FERRATIER
Our Rabbinic Intern will be writing monthly bulletin articles while Rabbi Schonbrun is on sabbatical for the next few months.
Coming off of the cycle of Jewish holidays, many people say that October and November are a low point of the year. November might not have much to remind us that we’re Jewish, but there are several days which remind us that we’re American, and after focusing so intently on our Jewishness during the High Holidays, it’s good to have the reminder that we do not exist only in a world of religious observances and obligations, but also in a world of civic and political responsibilities.
The first day which reminds us of our American identity occurs Tuesday, November 6. It is of course Election Day. It has become impossible to hear the news without feeling as though our political system, once the envy of the free world, has become a mockery of government. Citizens from across the political spectrum feel angry, frustrated, and helpless. Election Day is the day to do something about it. Election Day is the day when citizens can decide to be part of the problem, or part of the solution. It doesn’t matter which candidate receives your vote. Every ballot cast sends a message saying “I care.” Every uncast vote creates an atmosphere of apathy and puts a stamp of approval on the low standards of conduct and integrity which seem to have become normal for our political and cultural leaders. This is our chance to express ourselves as Americans. This is one action we can all take. We have the obligation as citizens to help create the “More Perfect Union.” We have the obligation as Jews to create a more perfect world. Voting on Election Day allows us to do both.
Less than a week later, we have yet another important American observance: Veterans Day. Although in recent years Veterans Day has been marked more by furniture sales than by parades, Veterans Day is perhaps the most-overlooked, underappreciated civic holiday. Unlike Memorial Day, which centers on our fallen heroes, Veterans Day celebrates living veterans. It celebrates those who have, since 1973, chosen to spend lives in service to our nation, and those who, prior to 1973 were often called into service by the draft. It is a day which celebrates the decisions made by ordinary men and women to place the American people and our stated ideals above their individual desires. It is a day in which we recognize in our veterans a bravery which we hope exists within ourselves. In Judaism, we are quick to remember the dead. Veterans Day reminds us to honor the living people whose sacrifices throughout the last century have helped to preserve for us the freedoms we most prize.
Finally, we arrive at Thanksgiving. Sukkot might have been our religious holiday of gratitude, but Thanksgiving Day is our national day of gratitude. It is a day in which we show our gratitude in the simple act of eating with loved ones. It does not require a long service in synagogue, nor an elaborately ordered meal, but rather simple words at a table which ideally reflects the complexity and diversity of the American people. Although the story of the Pilgrims is mythic, the image of neighbors extending hospitality across cultures is at the core of what it means to be an American. To be Jewish is to celebrate by eating. To be American is to eat with those who do not look or act like we do.
Of the three, chances are that Thanksgiving is the only one which immediately springs to mind when
we start naming holidays. However, in its own way, November is as important a month for our
national soul as Tishrei is for our Jewish one. May Election Day, Veterans Day, and Thanksgiving bring
all of us a sense of shared and renewed pride in our national identity. May they awaken in us a true
sense of civic duty, and may they help us to appreciate the freedoms which allow us to live here both
fully Jewish and fully American.

Lunch & Learn: The American Jewish Experience: An Introduction to American Jewish History
In this lecture course, Rabbi Dr. Robert E. Fierstien will discuss the origins of the American Jewish Community, from its earliest days in Colonial America down to the great wave of Jewish immigration from Eastern Europe in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Among the topics to be discussed are Jews in the American Revolution, the Civil War, the origins of Reform, Conservative, and Orthodox Judaism, and
the beginnings of American Jewish feminism. This course is a "must" for all who are interested in the history of the Jews in the United States! Rabbi Dr. Robert E. Fierstien is Adjunct Professor of Jewish Studies at Stockton University, where he specializes in Jewish History. He is Rabbi Emeritus of Temple Beth Or in Brick, NJ. A cultural and religious historian, he has published three books and numerous articles in the field of American Jewish History, and was Chairman of the Centennial History Committee of the Rabbinical Assembly. He is currently co-chairman of the History Committee of the Jewish Heritage Museum of Monmouth County. Wednesdays, 12:00pm — No class November 14 and November 21
My name is Lily Hyman and as part of my Bat Mitzvah celebration, which
was on October 6, I have been volunteering at the Crohn’s and Colitis
Foundation. I chose this foundation because my mom suffered with Ulcerative colitis for ten years.
The foundation focuses on fundraising for education, research, and patient support. CCFA is a
volunteer driven non-profit organization dedicated to finding cures for Crohn’s Diseases and Ulcerative
Colitis and improving the quality of life of children and adults affected by these digestive diseases.
At the local CCFA headquarters I helped make posters for the marathons they sponsored all over the
world to raise money. I also helped mail invitations to their members for their yearly gala. I will
continue to volunteer and raise money to help the cause. If you would like to make a charitable
contribution to the CCFA you can do so at: www.crohnscolitisfoundation.org.
