In the words of one fan, we will honor his memory by "drinking/reading/musicking" tonight in our Sanctuary alongside BanG Studio's "Jacob's Ladder." Bring books, drinks, food, instruments, and, if desired, a can of "chicken soup with rice" to donate to City Harvest. Join us in the Sanctuary from 11:00 p.m. - 12:30 a.m. Rabbi Bachman, quoted at Gothamist: "Maurice Sendak, a great son of Brooklyn, reminded us all that as children it was perfectly normal to fear the dark and allow our imaginations to provide light and comfort as we moved to other states of mind. His wicked sense of humor and honesty are already greatly missed and since we now live in a world where one can literally see books disappearing, we could not think of a more fitting celebration of his heroic career than to read his words into the first dark night of our grief without him."

The reading will be followed by a Q&A with CBE's Senior Rabbi Andy Bachman. There will be a reception and book signing afterwards. Books will be sold by the Community Bookstore, which will donate 10% of all sales made that night to CBE. The event is free for members, with a $10 suggested donation for non-members. Donations will be accepted at the door, but we are taking reservations in advance for everyone with Eventbrite (see below). Read Rabbi Bachman's mentions of Levine's work on his blog, here and here. Philip Levine "is a large, ironic Whitman of the industrial heartland" who, according to Edward Hirsch in The New York Times Book Review, should be considered "one of [America's]...quintessentially urban poets." He was born in 1928 to Russian-Jewish immigrants, in Detroit, a city that inspired much of his writing. Author of 20 collections of poetry, his most recent is News Of The World (Knopf, 2009). The Simple Truth won the Pulitzer Prize in 1995. What Work Is won the National Book Award in 1991. David Baker writes, "What Work Is may be one of the most important books of poetry of our time. Poem after poem confronts the terribly damaged conditions of American labor, whose circumstance has perhaps never been more wrecked." Levine is known as the poet of the working class, and he remains dedicated to writing poetry "for people for whom there is no poetry." Dwight Garner of The New York Times comments, "One of the joys of following Mr. Levine's career has been watching how playful he can be, despite the moral seriousness of his unadorned and lightly accented verse."

Come to CBE for Brooklyn's fun-est family holiday extravaganza. FEATURING: The Brooklyn Community Chorus, MS 51 Show Choir, the Brooklyn High School of the Arts Performing Choir, and the Festive Sing-A-Long. The 11th Annual Jingle Bell Jamboree concert—Old First Reformed Church's Music, Song, Dance, Party, Celebration Experience—will be moving to Congregation Beth Elohim this year due to ceiling construction at Old First. For the past two years, Old First offered the use of their sanctuary for CBE's High Holy Day services, after the ceiling collapse in CBE's sanctuary in 2009. The entire CBE community is honored to have the chance to repay the favor. Rev. Meeter remarks: "Two congregations of different religions sharing a common love of God and a single spirit of hospitality, enveloping each other and extending it to the community as a whole. Your 'house' is my 'house.'" Rabbi Bachman adds, ""The Children of Abraham believe in the commandment of hospitality, friendship, and love. These moments strengthen our community and we are delighted and honored to be there for Old First just as they were there for us." 100% of the proceeds go towards any additional expenses and to the non-profit arts organizations participating in the concert that provide services to our community.

From the education and care of our children to the Jewish education of our young people, from comforting those who grieve to volunteering at a homeless shelter, we gladly shoulder our obligation to do the work of Tikkun Olam—the mitzvah of healing a broken world. And no part of CBE would be able to do any of what we do without the dedication, persistence, and hard work of our volunteers. With that in mind, we invite you all to join us the evening of Friday, January 6, for a very special Volunteer Recognition Shabbat. Since it's the first Friday of the month, the evening will begin with Tot Shabbat—an opportunity to thank our Early Childhood Center volunteers. Services will be in the Sanctuary at 7:00 p.m. Immediately following services, we have a special volunteer recognition Oneg. We will honor the commitment and service of volunteers from all programs at CBE—ECC, After School, Yachad, Kehillah, Chesed, and beyond. We hope you'll join us on the first Shabbat of 2012 for a joyous evening—and a chance to say thanks.

How does a religious leader become a predator? How does an abusive leader avoid resistance from the community and from victims? We will compare two biblical stories of leadership gone awry: the stories of Judah and Tamar and of David and Batsheva.

One such bill being proposed to the New York City Council is for a "Living Wage" paid to workers on projects which receive subsidies from the city for economic development. This Saturday, November 19 at 11:15 a.m. in Rabbi Bachman's Study, you have a chance to come meet Stephanie Basile, organizer for the Living Wage Campaign.

Jewish congregations throughout Brooklyn help to staff the shelter on winter evenings. The shelter provides a hot, filling evening meal and a warm bed for about 10 women who are homeless and hungry. CBE has been providing volunteers to serve dinner and/or stay overnight for several years. This year, CBE will be staffing the shelter the week of February 27-March 1 and the week of March 5-March 8. The dinner volunteers arrive at Brooklyn Heights Synagogue at 6:00 p.m. The dinner may be pre-cooked at your home and heated up in the BHS kitchen or you may fix it on premises. Either way, it should be healthy and filling. Those who are staying overnight arrive at 7:00 p.m. to set up the cots in sleeping area. The women arrive around 8:00 p.m. After they eat, they usually go to bed by 10:00 p.m. and the overnight volunteers are free to sit & talk or go to sleep. At 5:30 the next morning, the overnight volunteers serve breakfast & coffee to the guests who want and leave soon after by 7:00 a.m. If you are interested in volunteering this winter, please click here to contact Carol Shuchman. Describing her own experience as a volunteer, Carol writes: "Over the last couple of years, we have made service in the Homeless Sshelter at the Brooklyn Heights Synagogue into a family affair. "My husband has made a huge pot of his incredible 'chicken chili' with another pot of brown rice. I and my youngest son, who is now a senior in high school, have taken the chili and rice along with a box of clementines to the shelter. We've met up with my son's friend and his mom who usually bring a salad and some dessert. The four of us warm up the food, set the table for the guests, lay out the buffet, and start the coffee pot. The women arrive by 7:30-8:00 p.m. and are so appreciative of the hot, filling meal and the sweet clementines. Everyone takes a heaping plate of food and we all (us and the guests) sit around and eat and talk. The guests are tired after they eat and usually find their beds quickly. "It has been eye-opening for the boys to meet the guests and talk with them about their days and their lives. For the other mom and me, it's a 'there but for the grace of God' moment. Some of the women are educated, some are not. Some have worked but lost jobs and homes due to financial crises. Some are estranged from family; some have no family. Each story is different but invariably the same in many ways. "This winter, my family and our friends will help out again... because we can and we need to."

About the book (from the Hachette Book Group site): "When Barack Obama won the 2008 presidential election, he also won a long-running debate with his wife Michelle. Contrary to her fears, politics now seemed like a worthwhile, even noble pursuit. Together they planned a White House life that would be as normal and sane as possible. "Then they moved in. "In The Obamas, Jodi Kantor takes us deep inside the White House as they try to grapple with their new roles, change the country, raise children, maintain friendships, and figure out what it means to be the first black President and First Lady. Filled with riveting detail and insight into their partnership, emotions and personalities, and written with a keen eye for the ironies of public life, The Obamas is an intimate portrait that will surprise even readers who thought they knew the President and First Lady." [caption id="attachment_4309" align="alignleft" width="180" caption="Jodi Kantor, © Juliana Sohn"][/caption] About the author (from the Hachette Book Group site): "Jodi Kantor began her journalism career by dropping out of Harvard Law School to join Slate.com in 1998.

In his new book The Unmaking of Israel, Israeli journalist and historian Gershom Gorenberg offers a penetrating and provocative argument on how the balance of power in Israel has shifted toward extremism, threatening the prospects for peace and democracy as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict intensifies. Informing his examination using interviews in Israel and the West Bank and with access to previously classified Israeli documents, Gorenberg delivers an incisive discussion of the causes and trends of extremism in Israel’s government and society. Join us for a book reading and discussion. About the author (quoting from his website): Gershom Gorenberg is the author of the forthcoming book, The Unmaking of Israel, on the crisis of Israeli democracy and how to solve it. The book will be published in November by HarperCollins. Gershom’s previous book is The Accidental Empire: Israel and the Birth of the Settlements, 1967-1977 (Times Books). Based on previously unpublished documents and extensive interviews, The Accidental Empire presents a strikingly new picture of Israel’s post-1967 history, of major Israeli leaders, and of Israel-U.S. relations. He is also the author of The End of Days: Fundamentalism and the Struggle for the Temple Mount, which portrays the role of religious radicalism in the Mideast conflict. He co-authored The Jerusalem Report’s 1996 biography of Yitzhak Rabin, Shalom Friend, winner of the National Jewish Book Award, and edited Seventy Facets: A Commentary on the Torah from the Pages from the Jerusalem Report.

The Jewish spiritual tradition of Mussar sees each person as a soul on a journey growing toward wholeness. Through Mussar practice one can gain a new perspective on life and how to address its daily practicalities and challenges. It can help develop a deeper spiritual reality that enables us to live with expanded creativity, wisdom, and a connection to the divine within ourselves and others. Morinis has led a revival of Mussar thought and practice over the past ten years both through his books (Climbing Jacob's Ladder, Everyday Holiness, and Every Day, Holy Day) and his teaching. He has appeared twice before at Beth Elohim, most recently in 2007, and we are honored to have him back again. Come hear this beloved teacher, as he describes his personal path toward discovering Mussar, and the insights and wisdom drawn from the 1,000-year old Mussar tradition that he has helped revitalize.

Cosponsored by Partners for Progressive Israel (Meretz USA) and Americans for Peace Now. About the author: Jeremy Ben-Ami started J Street in 2008, bringing together both deep experience in American politics and government and a passionate commitment to the state of Israel. Ben-Ami's family connection to Israel goes back 130 years to the first aliyah when his great-grandparents were among the first settlers in Petah Tikva. His grandparents were one of the founding families of Tel Aviv, and his father was an activist and leader in the Irgun, working for Israel's independence and on the rescue of European Jews before and during World War II. His political résumé includes serving in the mid-1990s as the Deputy Domestic Policy Advisor in the White House to President Bill Clinton and working on seven Presidential and numerous state and local campaigns. Highlights from his political career include serving as Howard Dean's National Policy Director in 2004 and helping to manage a Mayoral campaign in New York City in 2001. He also spent nearly a decade working in New York City government on homeless housing development. For nearly three years in the late 90s, Jeremy himself lived in Israel, where he started a consulting firm working with Israeli non-profit organizations and politicians. Ben-Ami received a law degree from New York University and is a graduate of the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Relations at Princeton University. About A New Voice for Israel: In A New Voice for Israel, Jeremy Ben-Ami shares the story of how his family's experience shaped his political views — his grandparents were first-generation Zionists and founders of Tel Aviv, and his father fought for Israeli independence in 1948 — Ben-Ami argues that it is time for true supporters of Israel to face the truth: that efforts to secure a safe and democratic future for the Jewish homeland are heading dangerously off-track. A New Voice for Israel emphasizes the need for strong U.S. leadership to combat three factors that stand in the way of a peaceful two-state solution: sophisticated technology and weaponry, the religious nature of the conflict, and the encroaching demographics that will soon render the Jewish people a minority in their own land. In order to move forward, Ben-Ami contends, friends of Israel must: Recognize that Jews are not a monolith, and that they vote and act based on various values and issues, not just the status of Israel Relinquish the idea that support of Israel requires unquestioning loyalty to the Israeli government and uniform support of its actions Ally with those who truly share their core values, instead of forging strategic relationships solely for the sake of increasing Israel's support base Recognize that the creation of a Palestinian state will greatly increase Israel's chances of survival At a moment when the world may seem more dangerous than ever for Israel, the temptation to retrench is strong. But as Ben-Ami argues, they must seize the solution instead, before it slips away for good.

Services begin at 7:00 p.m. and dinner will follow. For several months now we have witnessed an unprecedented wave of democratic revolts across the Arab world, as dictatorships have begun to fall and Arab citizens demand democracy. Israel, for decades the only democracy in the Middle East, now faces a new reality among its neighbors. In addition, with increased international support for the creation of a Palestinian state, the world's attention is on the Jewish state. What does it all mean? How do we understand these complex questions? As 11th & 12th graders prepare for college, we ought to prepare ourselves to understand and talk about Israel. During his seven years on the NYU campus, Rabbi Bachman found the conversation about Israel to be one of the most interesting and challenging conversations among college students. Please join us for a warm and engaging experience. Please RSVP to Sarah Jacobs Patulo at spatulo@cbebk.org or 718.768.3814 x 100. Cost per person will be $10.00 for dinner.

Hundreds of adults and kids from CBE have enjoyed attending our past retreats, and we look forward to another fun, relaxed weekend together. The retreat center features private family rooms, private and semi-private bathrooms, delicious kosher and organic food, a beautiful lake for swimming and paddle-boating, walking and running trails, a small-animal farm, a pool and a ping-pong table, a playground, and beautiful indoor and outdoor facilities. We will have programming for adults, kids and families; special guests like Shir L'Shabbat song leader Debbie Brukman; classes from CBE clergy and staff, including Rabbi Epstein; and an open-mike night on Saturday night. CBE member Ron Lieber describes his family's experience of the retreat this way: "I'd honestly forgotten how much fun camp could be. We made many new friends, got to hang out more with people we don't see enough of in such a casual setting and our daughter still talks about it. We have a conflict this year and are dreading breaking the news to her." And CBE member Cara Raich writes: "Our daughter Eden still asks us when the next retreat is, almost a year later! We had a wonderful time meeting and bonding with members of CBE. We made lasting friendships in only 2 days. It is like going to sleep away camp but with your spouse and kids. We highly recommend it, especially if you don't feel like you know many other members. It is a fun, low key and easy way to meet other families and the kids have a great time!" Costs are $280 per adult, $225 per child 7-17, and $140 per child 2-6. Kids under 2 are free. Cost includes rooms, meals, snacks, and programs for 3 days and 2 nights. Subsidies are available; to apply, please include a one-paragraph description of your need with your registration. Please click here to view or download a PDF of the retreat registration form!

Join us for an evening dialogue with Dr. David Kaufman, professor of religion and chair of Jewish studies at Hofstra University. A historian, architect, and Brooklynite, Kaufman is the author of Shul with a Pool: The Synagogue-Center in American Jewish History. As Tom L. Freudenheim, former Executive Director of the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research, writes, Shul with a Pool "fuses a variety of disciplines to dissect the synagogue-center movement in a way that brings to life significant, but often lost, aspects of our immediate past." Donations welcome. About the author: Dr. David E. Kaufman is the newly appointed Robert and Florence Kaufman (n.r.) Endowed Chair in Jewish Studies at Hofstra University. For the previous decade, he was Associate Professor of American Jewish History at the Hebrew Union College in Los Angeles, and additionally taught in the undergraduate Jewish studies program of the University of Southern California. He has a B.A. from Columbia College with majors in Architecture and Hebrew Literature, an M.A. in Jewish Education from the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, and a Ph.D. in American Jewish History from Brandeis University. Dr. Kaufman has published numerous articles on the social, religious, and architectural history of the American synagogue; a history of the seminal school of Jewish education in America, the Teachers Institute; and a major study of early 20th century Jewish communal institutions, Shul with a Pool: The "Synagogue-Center" in American Jewish History (UPNE, 1999). Following several years of teaching USC courses on American Jewish popular culture, his current research focuses on the nature of Jewish celebrity in the early 1960s, and a forthcoming book will include chapters on Sandy Koufax, Lenny Bruce, Barbra Streisand, and Bob Dylan.

DESCRIPTION: Purim is a holiday that is a thankful and joyful affirmation of Jewish survival, focused on joy and hope. We celebrate an ancient tale—the Book of Esther, aka the Megillah—to remind us of the imperative to perform acts of tikkun olam, "repairing the world." This year, CBE's Purim festivities, in addition to offering a megillah's worth of ways to have fun, will also include ample opportunities to do good. Our congregation will enjoy a weekend of food and drink, hamentaschen, carnival games (skeeball! spin art! bouncy house!), and song—and in cooperation with CHIPS soup kitchen, the Osborne Association for families with incarcerated parents, and a range of environmental initiatives, we'll also learn how we can come together to truly make a difference. See below for our weekend's schedule of events, prices, and links to buy tickets! (Please note that the cost of admission for Sunday's carnival will not cover two carnival games, ping pong and skeeball, which are how we are able as a community to raise funds for the Osborne Association. See below for more information about our partnership with Osborne.) Saturday, March 19 (FOR GROWNUPS): 5:30 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.: Eat, drink, and learn with Rabbi Dan Bronstein ("Why Is This Wine Different from Others: Drinking, Drunkeness, and Purim") 7:00 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.: Costume contest (with prizes!); Concert with Galeet Dardashti and Divahn; Havdalah and evening service 8:30 p.m.: Community-wide Megillah reading with CBE, Altshul, and Brooklyn Jews Tickets in advance*: dinner and concert: $15; concert only: $10 (get your tickets now—see below!)

A note about our social justice partners: The Osborne Association is dedicated to improving the lives of incarcerated New York men and women and their families, during their incarceration and after their release. Recently, CBE began a partnership with Osborne that strives to make connections between these two communities, to find ways for our members to offer service. CBE volunteers have begun to mentor 11th graders through the college process; later this month, our volunteers will chaperone children to Albion Women's Prison in upstate New York; and in April, CBE volunteers will work with women prisoners in Rikers, setting up a brand-new Children's Visiting Center that CBE funds made possible. We will stencil the walls and set up bookshelves and a games area. Later, we will bring a van of children for a ribbon cutting and prison visit. The money we collect at the carnival will help underwrite those prison visits, and refurbish the Children's Visiting Center at Rikers. CBE will also be partnering with CHIPS to provide a meal for about 100 people. In 1972, a few concerned individuals opened a storefront Soup Kitchen for the poor. The soup kitchen now serves 6,000 hot meals per month and about 72,000 meals a year. Any person who is hungry and in need is welcome to visit 200 4th Avenue. CBE congregants regularly cook and provide meals for the soup kitchen.

Cohen DESCRIPTION:Saturday, March 5, CBE will host a Shabbat luncheon and discussion with Rabbi Martin A. Cohen. Rabbi Cohen's talk will be titled "Reforming Reform Judaism for the 21st Century: Guideposts for our Future from the Guidelines of our Past." Our era is one characterized by rapid and profound changes on a global level. Jews have not faced such a radically changing world since the Roman era two millenia ago producing the form of rabbinic Judaism we practice today. Dr. Cohen will share his analysis of how contemporary Jews can understand and respond to the questions and challenges facing our community today. Rabbi Cohen will also be giving a D'var Torah at the March 5 Lay-Led Minyan Service. Rabbi Cohen is a professor of Jewish history at Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion. A recognized authority on Judaism, he has written extensively on Jewish history, theology, and education. His numerous books include the historic works The Martyr, on the secret Jews and the Mexican Inquisition, Two Sister Faiths, on early Rabbinic Judaism and early Christianity, and his edition of Sephardim in the Americas. He was ordained in 1957 and received his PhD in Jewish History from HUC-JIR in 1960. Rabbi Cohen's latest book, tentatively titled The Making of the Marrano Myth, is being prepared for publication.

The event is free, with a suggested donation of $5. About the book: "In his new book, The Worst-Kept Secret, Avner Cohen, author of the critically acclaimed Israel and the Bomb, draws on newly revealed historical data to offer a bold and original study of Israel's decades-long policy of nuclear opacity. Democratic governance at home and compliance with international standards for responsible nuclear behavior, Cohen argues, require that Israel acknowledge its nuclear might and openly confront its many ramifications. Cohen concludes with fresh perspectives on Iran, Israel, and the effort toward global disarmament." Praise for The Worst-Kept Secret: "Cohen reveals himself once again to be the reigning authority on the history of the Israeli bomb. Brilliant, compelling, and definitive." —Richard Rhodes, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Making of the Atomic Bomb About the author: Avner Cohen is a senior fellow at the Washington Office of the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies, Monterey Institute of International Studies. He has published on subjects as varied as nuclear proliferation and nuclear history, political theory, skepticism, and Israeli history. He is the author of Israel and the Bomb and the coeditor of Nuclear Weapons and the Future of Humanity and The Institution of Philosophy.

Here, students will spend the weekend learning about the major social justice issues facing our nation (examples include healthcare, climate change, poverty, gun control). The trip will culminate in a daylong excursion up to Capital Hill where students will lobby at the offices of our senators and congressional representatives about the issues that they have studied. Coupled with the learning components is the chance to take advantage of one of country's most unique and special cities. In the past, this trip has included outings to the Air and Space Museum, the Holocaust Museum, dinner in Georgetown, and shopping in Old Alexandria. And of course, Havdallah at the foot of the Jefferson memorial! The cost of the trip is $450 (includes travel, hotel, and registration) and forms are due on October 1st.

Nicole Krauss is the author of the international bestseller The History of Love, which was published by W.W. Norton in 2005. It won the William Saroyan International Prize for Writing, France’s Prix du Meilleur Livre Ėtranger, was named #1 book of the year by Amazon.com, and was short-listed for the Orange, Médicis, and Femina prizes. Her first novel, Man Walks Into a Room, was a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Award for First Fiction. In 2007, she was selected as one of Granta’s Best Young American Novelists, and in 2010 The New Yorker named her one of the 20 best writers under 40. Her fiction has been publi shed in The New Yorker, Harper’s, Esquire, and Best American Short Stories, and her books have been translated into more than thirty-five languages. She recently completed a Cullman Fellowship at the New York Public Library. Her new novel, GREAT HOUSE, will be published in October, 2010. She lives in Brooklyn, New York. Jodi Kantor is a reporter at the New York Times, where she has been covering the world of Barack and Michelle Obama since the beginning of 2007. She is on hiatus from the newspaper to work on a book about the Obamas in the White House, to be published by Little, Brown in 2011. Ms. Kantor graduated from Columbia and attended Harvard Law School. But soon after she arrived, she caught the journalism bug, took time off to work at Slate.com, and never looked back. She joined the Times in 2003 as Arts & Leisure editor, revamping the section and helping lead a makeover of the culture report. The recipient of a Columbia Young Alumni Achievement Award, Ms. Kantor has also been named by Crain’s New York Business magazine as one of “40 Under 40.” She appears regularly on television, including The Today Show and Charlie Rose. Though she is a Washington correspondent, she lives in Brooklyn with her husband and daughter. You can follow her at twitter.com/jodikantor.
