WORDS FROM THE “GLOSS” BY ERIC GOLBERG Chanukah. When I hear this word, like most of you, I instantly think about the miracle of the oil lasting for eight days, the symbol of the menorah, tasty latkes, dreidels and the Jewish people being freed from the control of the Greeks. This is generally the narrative that we, as Jewish people, focus on as the holiday rolls around. The miracle itself is a powerful message about never giving up hope. I like to look deeper into the real miracle of the holiday (in my humble opinion); the perseverance of the Jewish people. The two years leading up to the miracle of the oil showed the true character and determination of our people to overcome the odds and once again win as the underdogs. The familiar story of the Jewish people hiding their religious practice from their oppressor is a motif we see time and time again throughout our history. What makes THIS story special is how we fought back. Eric Golberg
The Jewish people fought against a strong Greek army led by Alexander the Great’s top successors and generals. I like to think of this matchup as if the ‘85 Bears defense was going up against a pee wee football offense; to win this war, they needed a great miracle. The Jewish people united together to protect our religion and identity. They fought for two long years in order for the real miracle of Chanukah to happen. We gained
our freedom. The story of Chanukah teaches us many lessons, but the one I value the most is how when a group of people unite together with the same goal, anything is possible. Over the last twenty months we have been faced with challenges that twentyone months ago were unimaginable. How do we preserve our identity and practice our religion together when we are all forced to be apart? This question, along with many others, were at the forefront of our minds and efforts. I vividly remember getting on a video call with my USY Board on March 14, 2020 and discussing this exact question. Do we cancel Lounge Nights until we go back in-person? How would we even do an online program? It seemed like every obstacle was in our way, but the character and dedication of our teen leaders never wavered. We created an extensive catalogue of programs to be run five nights of the week highlighting the topics that our leaders felt were most important: their connection to the Torah, their connection to Israel, their connection to the Jewish culture, and their connection to each other. These online programs became a place for Jewish teens all over the country to express and grow their Jewish identities in ways we had never thought of. These teen leaders gave me hope that even when up against the ‘85 Bears defense, we had a chance to win. As the next school year came around, our teens elevated our programming once again. “Together” mentality began to spread swiftly into our Young Family Programming.
HOLIDAY BOUTIQUE
Words From the “Gloss” by Eric Golberg (continued from Page 1) Over the last year, we grew our Young Family Programming engagement from an average of three families per program, to seventeen families per program. We added art classes for kids, Shabbat sing-a-longs “on demand” on the website, family programs, and Parents’ Night Out events. What seemed like an impossible dream was now our reality and all it took was banding together against a challenge. When I reflect on the impact of Chanukah on the Jewish people over the last few years, it has become less about the delicious sufganiyot and gifts, and more about the impact we as a community can make when we come together. I hope you all have a happy Chanukah and I hope to see you all at our Youth and Young Family events over the next year. Chag Urim Sameach, Eric, Director of Youth & Young Family Engagement 2

FROM THE CONGREGATION PRESIDENT Bob Spector
Shalom Chaverim, While the month of November/Kislev is often associated with dreary weather in Chicago, there are plenty of fun, entertaining, and educational events going on at CBS to brighten up our days. From the Sisterhood Holiday Boutique to our CBS Chanukah Happening, from our Pre-Veterans Day Concert of Americana to Israel in Depth and our always popular Men’s Club sponsored Erev Thanksgiving Program, there are engaging events for our entire multi-generational community (check out our calendar for details-https://congregationbethshalomnorthbrook.shulcloud.com/calendar).
Why stay connected to and actively be involved in our CBS community? We are fortunate to live in an extended suburban community that has so many resources and opportunities for social affiliation for our children and ourselves; and truthfully, we cannot compete with the variety of sports, entertainment, and culinary delights. I have heard it said that because we live in a fairly Jewish populated area the need/desire for Jewish affiliation through a synagogue is not as great. I grew up in a community that was about 5% Jewish. We did not live very close to our synagogue, so my family was minimally involved in the social opportunities that Temple of Aaron (our synagogue in St. Paul) offered. However, mine and my parents’ inner circle of friends were all Jewish. We created our own version of Jewish affiliation, but it was not the same as having a place to go where as soon as we walked in, we felt that we were a part of something bigger- a place that represented a shared history and cultural experience. My first real experience of having that feeling (beyond Hebrew School and High Holiday services) occurred when I was a sophomore in college, having volunteered to help Israel right after the 1973 Yom Kippur War (I will save that story for another column). I knew nobody when I landed, yet I felt so accepted, connected to and a part of something because I was a Jew in a Jewish land. I believe that is what Congregation Beth Shalom has to offer that our secular experiences do not. Walking into our little corner of land that is Jewish fosters our Jewish identities in a way that does not occur elsewhere. We have many roles and life responsibilities that define who we are, many of which may not be specifically Jewish. The best way to nurture our Jewish identity is to be part of a community that lives and breathes being Jewish even when the events are not specifically Jewish focused. It is even more critical, during a time when our opportunities to affiliate are more restricted, that we seek out ways to feel connected to others. Congregation Beth Shalom is a diverse community, but we do share a bond and understanding that is very powerful and meaningful. If you are regularly participating in our social, education, and religious experiences, keep on coming. If you have not yet checked us out, give us a try. This month has lots to offer everyone. What do you have to lose? B’Shalom, Bob

DEAR SUSAN Susan Karlinsky
Dear Susan, My wife and I are so appreciative of the year-round effort CBS makes to keep us connected despite the pandemic and other challenges which keep us from attending services and programs in-person. We are very curious about how the Live Stream works! Is there a tech crew operating the cameras and sound system? Are they in the building or are they working remotely, like me? Sincerely, Wondering and Worshipping from Home
Dear Wondering and Worshipping, You’ve given me a wonderful opportunity to share some details about the enhanced audio and video systems here at CBS. We recently completed an upgrade of our audio and video technology and created a “video booth” in our offices. Check out the picture below and you’ll get a glimpse of our equipment AND our tech crew! What? You don’t see our tech crew? This is not surprising! This system was designed and programmed in alignment with our core mission which includes: “We are committed to meeting the spiritual, educational and social needs of our members through the practice of Conservative Judaism in an all-inclusive manner.” We do not expect members of our staff to work on Shabbat or holidays, which includes operation of the Live Streaming equipment. The sound and video engineers who designed the system programmed the cameras to automatically follow the voice. That’s why you’ll see the Cantor close-up when he is davening. That’s also why you’ll see the full Bimah view when the Rabbi, Cantor and a B’nai Mitzvah honoree are all participating. We program the cameras to turn on and off automatically when the services start and stop. We pre-program the Live Stream for the Kamensky Sanctuary or the Feather Beit Midrash; we can even stream from our parking lot or lobby now with a portable camera. The quality of our Live Stream may be affected by internet traffic, power outages, or other unforeseen circumstances. We are NOT a Hollywood-style production studio. No hair and makeup artists! No cameras on cranes! No boom mics! No gaffers, casting directors or Foley artists! Our “tech crew” includes what you would expect at a house of worship: Rabbis, Cantor, Gabbaim, Torah Readers, B’nai Mitzvah honorees and YOU! We are proud to offer Live Stream access to our worship services and programs all year long (visit our website and click on the Live Stream link or https://www.bethshalomnb.org/pray/live-streaming/). This is both a convenience and an accommodation for those who are not able to join us in-person; it is not a substitute for community worship. We invite you to be a part of Congregation Beth Shalom from wherever you are! We are, at our core, a community of faith. Sincerely, Susan

RELIGIOUS SCHOOL Stacy Ybarra
Our Religious School program this year has 3 options: 100% in-person, 100% online and a hybrid which is 50% in-person with 50% online. All of our students who are hybrid or online only have online individual Hebrew in addition to a group class. We are so impressed with the enthusiasm of our students this year and their understanding and willingness to adhere to our COVID protocols. During the month of October we have gotten into a great routine! Our 3rd through 6th graders are making amazing progress in their Hebrew through our Aleph Champ Program. All of our classes brought in tzedakah this month so our school could donate one coat per grade to the JUF Coats for Kids Program.
We are looking forward to celebrating Chanukah together during the Chanukah Happening Program on Tuesday, November 30th. We hope to see all of you there! Watch the weekly school emails for more information.
Our 6th and 7th grade programs have moved from Sunday mornings to Shabbat mornings. Our students amaze us each week with their behavior and participation! Our 7th graders have just begun the first part of their Holocaust Unit. We have the pleasure again this year of having Mark Gelfeld, a docent at the Illinois Holocaust Museum, teach. Mark will teach on 4 consecutive Tuesdays (which began on October 19th) and part of the hour program will be a tour of the museum on Sunday, November 14th. Students who are online during the week will be able to zoom into the classes with Mr. Gelfeld. Parents are encouraged to participate with their students. Our 7th graders are also participating in minyan on Tuesdays. Watch for us to be wearing our 7th Grade Minyan Minion Shirts soon!

SISTERHOOD Jackie Zelkowitz
It is hard to believe that we are already at the beginning of November, and Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Sisterhood has so many things to be thankful for. First and foremost, Sisterhood is thankful for the generous, thoughtful and hardworking members who work throughout the year to make Congregation Beth Shalom a little bit better with each thing they do, no matter how large or how small.

MEN’S CLUB Steve Lessman
Dr. Andrew Wagner
We begin the month of November with thoughts of Thanksgiving approaching. We are very thankful for the opportunity to lead an award winning Men’s Club. Over the last two months, the CBS Men’s Club has continued to shine in the community. Our men are there doing the work and making it happen. We want to thank our entire Executive Board and Board of Trustees for continuing to perform at a high level day in and day out as we present various programs to the synagogue and the community.
Please join us for these fun and memorable upcoming events: Sunday, November 7th: Men’s Club Breakfast featuring Pat Cassidy, WBBM Newsradio 780’s morning anchor for over 40 years. He will share a behind-the-scenes look at today’s news and how it gets heard on the air. Sunday, November 14th: Israel In Depth program featuring Carl Schrag speaking on How Did “Zionism” Become a Dirty Word? Breakfast will be included. Wednesday, November 24th: Erev Thanksgiving featuring the world-renowned Jesse White Tumblers. Dinner will be included.
Continuing our “meet the CBS Men’s Club Executive Board” series, this month we introduce you to Don Pike, Ways and Means VP. His interesting story begins in Minneapolis, his birthplace. At the age of one, his family moved to Brazil, his mother’s homeland, and, when he was nine, they moved to Rockford. Don attended Rockford West High School where he enjoyed playing the violin in the school Symphony Orchestra, and playing football and track. Don and his family were Independent Protestants and Don attended church regularly growing up. He attended college at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb majoring in Business Operations Management. Don felt he wanted something more out of his religion and soon became involved in Hillel at NIU. He felt very comfortable at Hillel and soon became Captain of the Hillel Bowling Team. He attended services regularly and attended High Holiday services as well. While at Northern, he met his future wife, Miriam Benjamin. After Graduation from Northern, Don’s first job was in Chicago with Allied Chemical working in sales support. During those early years he wanted to continue to learn about the Jewish religion and attended classes at Spertus College. At Spertus he met three rabbis who became his friends and important people in his life, Rabbis Michael Siegel from Anshe Emet, Howard Lifshitz from Beth Judea, and Beth Shalom’s own Carl Wolkin. It was important to Don that he wanted to be a Jew, and he asked these three rabbis to perform the conversion. Soon after, they were instrumental in Don becoming a Bar Mitzvah in his early twenties. At the age of thirty-one, Don and Miriam were married and moved to Buffalo Grove joining Congregation Beth Judea. They had twin daughters, Rachel and Rebecca, who are both successful in their own lives. Rachel is in sales at DocuSign and teaches dance in Northbrook. Rebecca is married to Gabriel and is an ELL teacher at Stevenson High School. Dr. Miriam Pike is Head of School of Wolcott College Prep in Chicago. Don’s career has taken many turns buying and selling companies. He is currently an owner of Northstar Lighting, an LED Lighting manufacturing company selling to countries all over the world including Israel and Qatar.
Don and Miriam joined Congregation Beth Shalom ten years ago, and Don quickly became involved in the CBS Men’s Club with his mentor and brother-in-law, Brad Shaps, encouraging him. Don has held many offices at CBS Men’s Club including Ritual VP, Treasurer, Ways and Means VP, House Special Events VP and even put together the Adbook for Midwest Region FJMC for Man of the Year Dinner. Honored by all his work, the Men’s Club selected Donald Pike to be Man of the Year in 2020. We thank Don for all his years of being involved in CBS Men’s Club and look forward to his assisting us with Lox Box again in 2021 as Ways and Means VP. To conclude, Happy Thanksgiving to all our friends at Congregation Beth Shalom. Make sure you give your special people a hug and thank them for being there for you each and every day. Steve and Andy
