Dear Haverim,<br />
Hatikvah<br />
There exists a relatively new holiday in the American calendar<br />
dedicated to community coexistence and harmony. It is<br />
a day of inter-racial and inter-cultural cooperation and<br />
sharing. No other day of the year brings so many peoples<br />
from different cultural backgrounds together in such a vibrant<br />
spirit of communal sharing. This year, U.S. Jews, like<br />
other Americans, will mark Martin Luther King, Jr. Day by<br />
remembering him as a powerful voice against racism and<br />
for civil rights.<br />
The role Jews played in King’s civil rights movement is well<br />
known. Of all whites who participated, between half and<br />
two-thirds were Jewish. Jews overwhelmingly sympathized<br />
with King and the aims of the civil rights movement, even if<br />
the majority did not participate. Practical issues — fear for<br />
their own security, for instance, and an ambivalence toward<br />
a tactic, civil disobedience that required people to<br />
break laws they felt were unjust — made many people unwilling<br />
to actually join his movement.<br />
The Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday celebrates the life and<br />
legacy of a man who brought hope and healing to America.<br />
We commemorate as well the timeless values he taught us<br />
through his example: the values of courage, truth, justice,<br />
compassion, dignity, humility and service that defined Dr.<br />
King’s character and empowered his leadership. On this<br />
holiday, we commemorate the universal, unconditional<br />
love and nonviolence that empowered his revolutionary<br />
spirit.<br />
At CBT, we will also be acknowledging the multi-cultural<br />
goals of the MLK holiday. On Monday morning, January<br />
21, I will be hosting a group of 100 students representing<br />
four local urban and suburban churches. My goal that day<br />
will be to teach the values and traditions of Judaism as a<br />
religion that is woven into the fabric of the American experience.<br />
For many, this will be the first time they have<br />
stepped into a synagogue and learned about our lives as a<br />
minority in American culture.<br />
19 Tevet—20 Sh’vat<br />
As you may know, I represent CBT and the larger<br />
Jewish community in several inter-faith community<br />
organizations. This project is an outcome of our<br />
joint effort to create mutual understanding and respect.<br />
I encourage our congregation youth and<br />
adults who may be free that day to join me in representing<br />
our synagogue. You are welcome to come<br />
to dialogue with our guests and be available for answering<br />
their questions.<br />
May our future be filled with understanding and<br />
not violence, acceptance and not bigotry.<br />
L’Shalom,<br />
Gary M. Gans, D.Min.<br />
Rabbi

Message from our President<br />
The weather may be turning colder outside, but things here at CBT are staying warm this<br />
month with lots of activities scheduled!<br />
Many things continue as usual. On the ritual side, services and Monday and Thursday<br />
minyanim are ongoing, and we have the annual Welcome Home from Israel Shabbat service.<br />
Men’s Club and Sisterhood have their annual joint meeting, which is always well attended.<br />
Bingo is doing business as usual (more volunteers are always welcome!). CBT Book<br />
Club, Mature Adults Club, and Adult Learning Community have meetings scheduled. CBT<br />
committees will conduct their regular meetings as well. USY has several events planned.<br />
Story Time and Hol-i-tot will interest our youngest members.<br />
Something exciting is the return of the joint Hebrew School to CBT late this month. Once<br />
again the hallways and classrooms will be filled with kids on Sunday mornings and Tuesday<br />
evenings. And with the return of the school comes the return of Sunday morning minyan.<br />
A couple of new events are scheduled also. Rabbi Nathan’s Father & Son Program will begin<br />
on the 13 th . Our winter fundraiser, the CBT Art Auction, will take place on the 27 th .<br />
So don’t let the winter blues keep you home. Come on out and take advantage of all the<br />
wonderful activities planned at CBT!<br />
B’Shalom,<br />

Ritual<br />
Shabbat in my life, at CBT, and “Across America”<br />
Growing up, I was lucky to have a large extended family that hadn’t yet dispersed far from the<br />
Tennessee community we emigrated to from Poland between 1900 and 1920. As we ever so<br />
slowly drifted apart geographically, we stayed connected by being together with one another<br />
whenever possible for dinner on Shabbat. This was the time when we put the distractions of<br />
modern life aside and really got to know one another. (Yes, we had technological distractions<br />
before the Internet!)<br />
As we grew in numbers, we started having annual reunions on Thanksgiving weekend, including<br />
that special Shabbat feeling the night after turkey. We celebrated the 70 th such annual<br />
gathering this past year nearby in Philadelphia. Folks with that common link came from all<br />
over the United States, Europe, and Israel. But not a one of us lives in Knoxville, TN anymore.<br />
Those days are a memory, and ever harder to hold onto.<br />
I live a good, blessed life here in New Jersey. A loving wife and two dynamic teenagers about<br />
to burst out into the world themselves. No complaints about that. Family outside of our<br />
household are rarely available or nearby for that together time on Friday nights though. Heck,<br />
even within the household extracurricular or work activities often win out and there are<br />
sometimes empty seats at the dinner table as Shabbat begins. So, how do I fill the void left by<br />
the scattering of the ole southern shtetl?<br />
Since I moved here in 1993, that void has been filled by the contagious warmth pulling me towards<br />
my extended family at CBT. There I find easy-going folks who care about what’s going<br />
on in my life and are a pleasure to have as company as we pray and learn about our history<br />
and Judaism clashing with modern times. Sure, it’s tempting to go out to a show or stay at<br />
home and watch TV or sleep in on Saturday. So I sign up for a lot of obligations to make the<br />
pull even stronger. Well, that’s my way of seeing it, anyway.<br />
There are forces in America trying to keep Shabbat alive and vibrant on a national level. The<br />
National Jewish Outreach Program promotes its annual “Shabbat Across America” each year,<br />
in which CBT often participates. This year, the 17 th such celebration will be on Friday, March 1.<br />
CBT will be holding a dinner and special service that evening. (see accompanying article) I<br />
hope to see all the regular faces there and maybe a few I haven’t seen in a while. These will<br />
be good times.<br />

Ritual<br />
CBT to Experience Shabbat Across America… with “Soupfest”<br />
Friday evening March 1 marks this year’s annual “Shabbat Across America,” when Jews from the<br />
United States and Canada from all denominations go out of their way to rejuvenate and reawaken<br />
the experience of Shabbat. CBT will be participating with a Shabbat dinner and service featuring<br />
good food, Shabbat songs and the opportunity to share the ups and downs of the week ended<br />
within our community.<br />
The menu for the dinner will be soup-based, prepared in-house featuring recipes from our community.<br />
Why soup you may ask? Could it be that life is better experienced with soup than without?<br />
Soup and Shabbat were linked together for me early on. My grandmother’s was without a doubt the<br />
best. When I was at her house for Shabbat dinner, I knew I could get away with eating as much soup<br />
and Challah as I wanted, even it meant ignoring the main course and yes, even dessert. I could<br />
never get away with that in my own house. Other reasons for soup:<br />
· Recipes are infinite<br />
· A variety of tastes are covered<br />
· Preparation and cooking can be done ahead of time<br />
· It’s cheap<br />
· It’s yummy<br />
· It just feels good on a cold winter’s night<br />
I’ll bet there are a lot of fabulous soup recipes in the kitchens and chronicles of CBT families. We will<br />
be collecting and evaluating as many of these as we can learn about during the month of January. At<br />
least three will be selected for the Shabbat Across America dinner. Before you run to the recipe box,<br />
there are a few guidelines:<br />
· All soups must be vegetarian or cream based as we will be serving them together.<br />
· Recipes that have proven to hold up well when stored frozen are helpful as we cannot<br />
prepare them all the day before<br />
· Submitting a family recipe does not obligate you to help cook it, but those who pitch<br />
in will certainly have their selections catapulted to the top of the list!<br />
Cooking for Soupfest will take place at CBT during the month of February at times to be determined.<br />
Please send all recipe submissions to Joel Mosko via email at jmosko@comcast.net, or slip a copy in<br />
my pocket when you see me around CBT. Look for RSVP forms and more details about Shabbat<br />
Across America dinner in the February issue of Hatikvah!<br />
Did I say volunteer cooks needed? Always!<br />

Father and Sons Together<br />
Coming to CBT and TS!<br />
JANUARY 2013<br />
CBT is proud to announce “Fathers and Sons Together,” a<br />
new and innovative program. Seventh- to 9th-grade boys<br />
and their fathers (or other adult male figure) are invited to<br />
join Rabbi Nathan and Rabbi Gans for a new and exciting<br />
program for middle school boys and their adult male figures.<br />
There is a lack of educational programming geared towards<br />
the needs, desires, and developmental pace of middle<br />
school aged boys, and even less geared to their parents,<br />
especially their fathers. This program is designed to<br />
meet those needs, and to open lines of communication in<br />
three directions:<br />
Among 7th-9th grade boys<br />
Among fathers<br />
Among fathers and sons.<br />
This program takes part in three Sunday afternoon sessions<br />
with distinct themes:<br />
Sportsmanship (Ruach HaSport)<br />
Conflict Resolution (Bein Adam L’Chaveiro)<br />
Peace in the Home (Shalom Bayit)<br />
Fathers will explore their key values, joys, and concerns,<br />
and how best to transmit them to their sons. Break-out<br />
sessions for fathers will be led by Rabbi Gans and breakout<br />
sessions for sons will led by Rabbi Nathan. Each of the<br />
three events will take place in a different location. We are<br />
looking at parks, bowling alleys, laser tag courses, etc.<br />
Cost: Free<br />
Dates are:<br />
Sunday, January 13<br />
Sunday, March 17<br />
Sunday, April 14<br />
How to Register:<br />
Who: CBT and TS 7th-9th<br />
grade boys and their<br />
adult male figures. You<br />
do NOT need to be en<br />
rolled in religious school<br />
to participate.<br />
Simply send an email to the Temple Sinai religious school<br />
office at templesinaischool@verizon.net before January 1<br />
to reserve your spot. Space is limited!

SISTERHOOD NEWS<br />
January, 2013<br />
On November 18 th , six of our Sisterhood members attended the Mid-Atlantic Region Torah Fund<br />
event held at Melrose B’nai Israel Emanu-El in Elkins Park, PA.<br />
The 135 women who attended were from 24 Sisterhoods of the Mid-Atlantic Region.<br />
The guest scholar for this event was Dr. Marjorie Lehman, of the Jewish Theological Seminary. Her<br />
presentation was entitled “Emerging from Life’s Travails: The Lessons of the Biblical Hannah”.<br />
CBT Sisterhood was very proud to again receive an Achievement Award for reaching our Torah Fund<br />
goal for 2011-2012.<br />
In addition to the Torah Fund award, our very own Eileen Hoffing was one of 25 women recognized<br />
with the “Woman of Honor” for her continuing support of Sisterhood and Torah Fund. A very well<br />
deserved honor, Eileen.<br />
Our special guest for the evening was Women’s League of Conservative Judaism President Rita<br />
Wertlieb, who brought greetings from Women’s League.<br />
The event was lovely and to our Sisterhood’s credit, several women from CBT were responsible.<br />
Rochelle Hirt was the committee chair of this event, and she had strong support from Donna<br />
Finkelstein and Thelma Fox who were among the committee members. Great job, ladies.<br />
We wish to thank all of you who participated in the CBT/Sisterhood joint effort to collect craft items<br />
for Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. This drive was held in conjunction with the annual Chanukah<br />
concert on December 9. This year, the concert was enjoyed by our combined Temple Sinai and <strong>Beth</strong><br />
<strong>Tikvah</strong> Hebrew schools. The place was rocking with the CBT band and chorus led by Brian Baker,<br />
and the kids really threw themselves into singing the Chanukah songs.<br />

Men’s Club News<br />
We celebrated our CBT Man of the Year in December, Alan Geron, CBT Men’s Club<br />
kitchen chairman, at Adath Jeshurun. We showed a video tribute to Alan which will be<br />
available online around the time of our Joint Men’s Club Sisterhood brunch in January.<br />
We thank you, Alan, for all you do to keep our brunches going.<br />
December’s Men’s Club Brunch featured the very green, very cool, Tesla Motors Model<br />
S all-electric luxury sedan. Peter Spirgel, managing shareholder and COO of Flaster<br />
Greenberg, spoke about his experience with his new car, Motor Trend’s first unanimously<br />
voted Car of the Year. For show and tell, Peter brought the car for everyone to<br />
see right outside our hall.<br />
Imagine no engine, just a small motor on the rear axle, leaving the trunk and hood<br />
open for storage. No belts, hoses, fluids (except wiper fluid) or other power train maintenance<br />
required of most cars. No sound, with a battery range of about 300 miles<br />
(longer range technology being developed, too). Brakes expect to last 85,000 miles<br />
since slowing down re-powers the car with minimal brake use. Did I mention its one of<br />
the fastest production cars on the road, perhaps only a Lamborghini can beat in this<br />
category?<br />
This is a green technology in several ways. With solar powered charging stations<br />
planned, producing no carbon emissions, they represent completely renewable power.<br />
While some stations will be free of charge, the cost of the electric charging is less than<br />
4 cents per mile, so you can count on the savings without the need for gasoline either<br />
way. When is the last time $4 took you 100 miles?<br />
Peter is an early adopter of what you might think is the future of replacing traditional<br />
gasoline-powered cars. Tesla is exporting these U.S.- made vehicles, selling its electric<br />
motor to Toyota and building charging stations along major highways using its sister<br />
company Solarcity.<br />
Mark this time as the beginning of practical electric cars and the reduction of our dependency<br />
on fossil fuels. Thank you, Peter, for your courage and sharing of this great<br />
first step.<br />
Finally, a reminder, that the Joint Men’s Club Sisterhood Brunch in January features<br />
genealogy!<br />
