But a recent Hillel leadership conference in this northern suburb of St. Petersburg differed from similar gatherings in North America in subtle and not-so-subtle ways.

When it comes to this game, Hillel could almost be considered a coach or trainer.  Between the continuing expansion of Hillel in the former Soviet Union, campus-based, the opening of three new Hillel centers in Israel, national and specialty Taglit-birthright israel trips, High Holy Day services, community dinners and more, Hillel is helping Jewish students all over the world build their networks and become "champions" of Jewish Geography.

Board Touch Base

Hi,

I need to touch base with you on several matters:

First - we should all be very proud of Esther, who spoke beautifully yesterday offering greetings on behalf of Hillel at the Turkish Intercultural Club iftar.

Next - just yesterday Alana was asked by David Brinn, the Insrael Intern supervisor, to join him in going to Washington, DC for a protest at the UN on Sunday against the President of Iran.  When Alana told me yesterday, I did not realize that it was Ahmadinejad.  I did not know he was coming to the US.  Let's be clear - this is the "wipe Israel off the face of the earth" guy.  This is the "Holocaust is a myth" guy, who sponsored the Holocaust denial conference in Iran last year.  This is the guy who sent the sophisticated weaponery to Hezbollah and Iranian military personnel to show them how to use it against Israel in the Lebanon War.  This is the " I love nuclear weapons" guy.

We should all be very proud we have a representative going to this protest.  I think this is going to be a pretty amazing experience.

Next - as Board Members, you all need to support the Judaica Committee, who has, by far, the most responsibility in these holiday weeks:

Saturday night is the Break the Fast at Hillel at 7:45 PM.
Monday and Tuesday we are decorating the sukkah.  Every Board member needs to take time to help do this next week.  Today, you should take a minute to look outside Mundelein, since for the very first time ever - the university Facilities staff is putting up our sukkah this morning from 10 AM on.  I will be outside "supervising," and it would be good for Hillel Board members to stop by and say thank you.

Finally, about Yom Kippur - tonight I am going to send a reminder email on the listserve about services, the Break the Fast, etc.

I still do not know who can come to Hillel at 7:15 PM to meet any students who want to go to the 8 PM Yom Kippur service at Emanuel on Friday night.  Caitlin said she would do this, but she really wants to go to Northwestern, instead.  And, I think she should go there.  Lindsey, are you going to Emanuel?  Carrie, are you going to be coming to Emanuel for Yom Kippur?  Can you do this?

Steve and Katie are going to be at Hillel at 6 PM to meet with any students who want to attend services at Mitziut.  That is the funky, spirtual, aspects of traditional service that they went to on Rosh HaShanah that meets on Morse Ave.  Services there start at 6:30 PM on Friday evening.  We have offered to "the Mitziut community" to use our sukkah on days we are not having programs in it.  They are going to have a Havdallah in the sukkah on the Saturday night of Sukkot (next Saturday night) followed by a drum circle - to which our students are invited.  That will be in next week's listserve.

OK - I wanted to touch base with you on these things.

Take care,

Patti

Cafe Hillel ---NEW---

From Hillel's Israel/Culture Committee about a new and different initiative -

Hello Hillelians,

So, the new year is well on its way and that brings the idea of reflection to the forefront. Every secular new year we
make resolutions which we painfully try to abide by. For the Jewish new year, we wanted to try something new....

(Drum roll please.....)

CAFE HILLEL!

(are you excited yet)

Come to Alana Kinarsky's house next week (Tuesday, September 25) and lets drink a cup of coffee (and chow down on some great, free Israeli food) while we talk about Israel and its connection to the Jewish people, or the connection the Jewish people have to Israel? This will be a jump off point...

During the second meeting we will continue to talk about this connection by looking at some Israeli song lyrics, hearing some of the music...

So here are a few more details -
There are two meeting times which we would like to you commit to, September 25th and October 30th from 7-8:30 pm both times. We promise there will be warm kosher meals provided and a very comfortable cushion for your tush.
Anything else?

So listen, we hope you will join us, we would love to have you! Email Amy Galanter ASAP if you can come, agalant@luc.edu,  so we can figure out who is cool and who isn't. She will give you the address of Alana's apartment.  Bring some original thoughts and pick up two short articles to read for the first meeting.  The articles are on the counter in Hillel!

Love,
Amy, Konstantin, and Alana

Help Hillel Start the Year Off Right

Hillel: The Foundation for Jewish Campus Life   Dear Student, Help us reach our goal of raising $30,000 by Yom Kippur Just a couple of days ago, tens of thousands of students celebrated Rosh Hashana with their local Hillels.  This was a great start to the year!    Right now, local Hillel Foundations are addressing a key question: where do we go from here?  Hillel professionals across the country have been planning for a busy and fun-filled year.  We need your help now at the beginning of this year to help make these activities a reality!   Choose your school and make a New Years gift today.   Local Hillels need to raise over 50% their budgets each year.  Your support enables them to engage the students on campus who came to services, as well as to connect with thousands more who did not.    Hillel's mission is to enrich the lives of Jewish students so that they may enrich the Jewish people and the world.  Local Hillels are dedicated to creating a pluralistic, welcoming and inclusive environment for Jewish college students, where they are encouraged to grow intellectually, spiritually and socially.    Be our partner in these efforts and support a local Hillel!   You can also support some of the national and international programs provided through Hillel's Charles and Lynn Schusterman International Center, including leadership missions and other travel to Israel, Taglit-birthright israel follow-through programming, and Alternative Break programs to continue rebuilding New Orleans and the Gulf Coast – impacting thousands of students each year.     Click here to support these important experiential programs.   Help us reach our goal of raising $30,000 online by Yom Kippur.  Best wishes for a sweet, healthy and fulfilling new year.   Keith Krivitzky PS – if you have already made your gift through the mail or directly to a local Hillel Foundation – thank you!  Your support is very much appreciated. www.hillel.org | Hillel: The Foundation for Jewish Campus Life | Donate About | On Campus | Jewish Resources | Social Justice | Careers | Israel | Conferences

To the Board

Hi,

Once again we are embarking on another very busy week.

First - a huge Thank You to, first of all, Katie and Steve, for organizing the Rosh HaShanah - almost standing room only - dinner - and to Carrie, who has returned to help her Hillel in times of need - and, in particular, from the Board - Esther, Caitlin, Julia and Lindsey ( I hope I did not leave anyone out...).  I heard the dinner was just amazing.

Next - This morning - for those of you who read emails really early - Jennie Lev is going to be at Hillel at 9 AM for the weekly women's Tehillim group to say prayers on behalf of those who are ill.  If you can come, that would be great.  If you cannot, but have names that you want to add to the list, it is posted on the wall in the kitchen.  Guys can add names to the list as well.

Next - Today is mezzuzah stuff - our first Mitzvah of the Month.  Tomorrow is our first Latin Jewish movie for Latino Heritage Month.  Wednesday is our first Bagel Sale.  We are expecting the Board to sign up to work this.  We have not decided what organization to give the money to.  Any ideas?  Please let Esther or Jenny Bekker know.  Wednesday night at 6 PM in Simpson is the annual Turkish Intercultural Club's Iftar Night.  They annually sponsor a break-the-fast for Ramadan and many organizations are asked to offer words of support for peace, etc.  Hillel has been part of this since it began.  I am hoping Esther is going to be able to speak on behalf of Hillel.  If any of you can be there as well, it would be very good.  Thursday, for the first time ever - the university is putting up our sukkah.  (Jenny - this is saving Hillel $400!!).  We will be decorating it and putting on the greens, etc. on Monday and Tuesday.  We wanted it up before Yom Kippur, because we wanted to be able to decorate on Monday.

OK - that is this week.  Once Yom Kippur is over, we will be sending out on the listserve an email about our Jewish learning opportunities at Hillel as well as the Cafe Hillel program that Alana and Amy are going to be coordinating this semester.  This afternoon, Esther, Alyssa, Inna and Jenny and I will meet to try and find a time for a Board Meeting.

Happy New Year!  I will see you soon.

Patti

Hillel This Week/Yom Kippur

Shalom,

We hope you had a very good beginning to the New Year 5768!

Hillel has a very diverse set of programs this week. We hope you will find one that you like! At the end of the message is information about Yom Kippur services in the area and our Hillel Break-the-Fast, which will be on Saturday night, September 22 at 7:45 PM in Hillel. There is also a new job listing.

We hope you have a meaningful week between Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur. These days are known as the 10 Days of Repentence/Reflection. We also hope you have an easy fast on Yom Kippur.

We will also have directions on how to put up your mezzuzah.

KFAR Jewish Arts Center: Stimulating, promoting and producing the next generation of Jewish expression     

	September 12, 2007 This year, Yom Kippur falls on Shabbat, and so the Shofar will only be sounded at the close of services after sundown. Its absence that day is very noticeable.  But what if throughout the year, Jewish music as a whole were similarly silent, prohibited, or limited to its role in fundraising events? We're live in a place and time when the inverse is true- Jewish expression flourishes and even enriches the surrounding culture. It is a renaissance not seen since medieval Spain, too precious to let fall silent for any reason. KFAR depends heavily on your support to bring this renaissance to Chicago. As the New Year approaches, may we all experience the collective joy and celebrate our common heritage through the lively arts. This Rosh Hashanah, sweeten your year. Support Jewish artistry and creativity in Chicago with a donation to KFAR, and help us nourish our community with a calendar filled with programs, concerts and initiatives.
	Your Rosh Hashanah gift to KFAR  helps us bring our signature brand of contemporary Jewish cultural and vibrancy to Chicago that's as sweet as, well, honey.  Please  make a New Year's tax-deductible contribution to KFAR Jewish Arts Center , and may this year be one of health and joy for you, our community, all the Jewish people and may the whole world be blessed with peace.   L'Shanah Tovah!
