Roxbury Supports First Responders With Painted Lines

“

By: J.L. Shively ith some of the anti-police agendas in the country at this time,” states Roxbury Twp. Mayor Jim Rilee, it is important to create a “symbol of our true feelings.”

The symbol which Rilee refers to is the decision to paint colored lines on the road in town dedicated to the

teams of men and women who are the first to respond to town emergencies.

“We take a lot of pride in our first responders,” says Rilee, designating the reason for the decision being made to honor all first responders.

This sentiment has been reverberated throughout many towns in the country and Roxbury has joined the collection of towns which have chosen to stand up for their support and make it visible not only to the township and responders, but to anyone who drives down Main St. in Roxbury.

Many towns have adopted the painting of blue lines within the double yellow lines in support of their local police force and Roxbury was soon to follow.

“We have stood behind our police officers for many years,” states Rilee.

The town of Roxbury decided to take the line painting a step further, however and elected to also paint red lines in support of the fire department and first-aid responders. continued on page 2

Roxbury Schools On Year Long Journey To Best Education

By Catherine Bialkowski ell underway, the 2016-2017 school year has been an exciting one for Roxbury with more to come. The elementary, middle, and high schools all have plans involving new programs, field trips, and events designed to improve and enhance students’ learning capacity and to ensure they receive the best education the district can give.

All elementary schools are currently trialing an Early Act Club and will continue to do so throughout the year.

This club has been instituted in order to “foster a love for community,” and will give students opportunities to partake in community service, according to Roxbury School’s Superintendent Loretta Radulic.

At Franklin and Nixon Elementary schools, the district has begun an initiative called Title I Parent Academy. This academy, which has been created in order to aid parents in helping their children reach their full learning extent, will “provide four evening presentations throughout the school year that focus on strategies and skills essential for parents to support the learning and growth of their children,” said Radulic.

Additionally, a new science curriculum has been implemented for grades three to five through the district. FOSS (Full Option Science System) “best meets the expectations of the New Jersey Student Learning standards and the

desire of Roxbury to offer students a cutting-edge, experience-based science investigation experience in the elementary years,” said Radulic. Next year, the district plans to expand FOSS training to all teachers from kindergarten to 12th grade.

Painted Lines... continued from front page

The lines have been painted on Main St. and came at a minor cost of $1,800 which was “was within the amount budgeted for the paving/re-stripping of Main St.,” states Rilee.

Rilee explains that no ceremony is planned for this project because it is “just a gesture of support at this point in time,” and does its job without needing any more explanation, the town is behind its first responders all the way.

The idea for this project was brought to the attention of the administration by Township Manager Chris Raths, explains Rilee.

Raths explains that he was talking with some of his colleagues in Bergen County who planned on painting the lines and so he brought the idea to Roxbury. Roxbury Councilman Dan Kline suggested to Raths that the fire department and EMS be included in this gesture of support with the addition of red lines.

The lines were completed near the end of Oct. The

This year, Eisenhower Middle School has implemented Suite 360, which will “allow students and parents to participate in self-driven learning modules that connect with the social-emotional development of our students,” continued on next page blue lines on Main St. stretch from Rt. 10 to Commerce Blvd. with a section of red painted lines in front of the fire station. These lines are painted within the double yellow lines.

This project was overseen by the Department of Public Works Director Rick Blood.

The painting of the lines sends a strong message to the community and first responders alike that “the township appreciates all that they do for the community,” Raths notes.

Raths states that the police and fire department have been very supportive of this project and the community has absolutely taken notice as well.

The lines have been painted with regular road paint and will last for quite some time and although there are no plans as of yet to repaint them the idea has not been ruled out.

“I think it’s a great program and I’d like to see it continue going forward,” Raths concludes.

Roxbury Schools...

continued from previous page according Radulic.

“This program seeks to support the growth and learning of the whole child and provide EMS students, counselors, and parents with talking points about the ever-changing landscape of adolescents in a complex world,” she said.

As for Roxbury High School, Mrs.

Feret, a 6th through 12th grade mathematics supervisor, has established a partnership with the County College of Morris in Randolph that will “allow seniors another option for a fourth year of math and provide them with an experience that prepares them for credit-bearing courses at the collegiate level,” according to Radulic. This

partnership is designed to help students on the path to success after graduation.

Roxbury’s upcoming year involves outside of the classroom learning as well.

This winter, students will travel to New York City for a Winter Wonderland trip, on which they will, as Radulic explained, “speak with professional window-display designers while also seeing historic architecture.”

Other programs, including the oneto-one technology initiative started three years ago, and the student robotics club, continue to shine. One-to-One has been expanded to reach students from fifth grade to senior year, and the robotics club, which

T

has incorporated makerspaces into its activities, has exemplified compassion and determination by taking part in the Unity Tour, which raises awareness of officers who have died in the line of duty.

There is certainly no shortage of achievements in the school district for this year. From educational campaigns to out-of-state expeditions to student organizations, it looks like Roxbury has a bright rest of the year planned.

“We have a wonderful team here in Roxbury,” Radulic said. “Our team truly cares about education, believes in character development, and supports strong professional relationships.”

Program Offered For Fun And Friendship

Lorusso Sets Wins Record At Roxbury And Reflects On Career

by Jason Cohen oxbury High School Football Coach Cosmo Lorusso grew up with a passion for the gridiron and now is on the cusp of breaking the school record for wins.

On Oct. 21, he tied Coach Jim Fiorello’s 100 wins when the team beat Mt. Olive 35-0. He has a chance to surpass him on

Nov.14, when Roxbury hosts Northern Highlands in its last game of the season.

“It’s really not something that motivates me or drives me,” he said referring to getting 101 wins.

“It’s very humbling to be mentioned in the same breath as him (Fiorello).”

Lorusso, 52, a native of Union Township, has been

coaching for 30 years. He fell in love with the game at a young age and often played with his older brothers Brian and Dom. Dom was a state championship quarterback at Union.

He played football one year at Montclair State, but eventually decided to coach. His former coach at Union High School, Lou Retino had a major impact on him, but it was Jim Benedict, the quarterbacks coach at Union, who gave him his first job as an assistant coach at Summit High School from 1987 to 1988.

“My coaches were such an influence in my life that I knew I wanted to do something like that in my life,” he remarked.

served as an assistant at Lenape Valley High School from 1989 to 1993, head coach at Sussex County Technical School from 1994 to 1995, and head coach at Pequannock High School from 1996 to 2001.

Teaching English at Roxbury and coaching the students has changed his life, he explained. He has been able to see the kids grow in and out of the classroom.

According to Lorusso, 100 wins is great, but his goal is to help his players become better people. He noted, he did lead the team to two state championships in 2009 and 2012.

“If I’m going to take any credit as a coach for wins, I hope that I inspire young men to play to the best of

their ability,” the coach said. “You’re not going to win championships every year. Your program better have something more than championships.

“The ability to have an impact on young people’s lives, you can’t put a price on that,” he added.

Even with all of the touchdowns and sacks, some highlights for him include getting invitations to weddings and graduations of former players.

Looking back at his time in Roxbury, he noted that while it may be a small community, it is filled with spirit and dedicated parents. Every Friday night the stadium is packed with 2,000 fans, he said.

“I think my career was building to get to a place

like Roxbury,” he said. “It’s still a town that enjoys its football. To me, there’s no better place to coach in.”

Scout Promotes Literacy Through Little Libraries Eagle Project

By J.L. Shively ocal Boy Scout, Hunter Webber, a 17 year old Roxbury student, recently undertook his Eagle Scout project by completing a task that has important ties to his own interests.

In choosing a project Webber believed that the focus of his project should reflect something he is interested in. In order to “promote literacy,” Webber states, he choose a project which makes books easily available to the community.

In order to make this desire a reality, Webber asked for the assistance of the Roxbury Library, the staff of which helped to guide him onward to his goal and will continue to remain a huge part of the ongoing sustainability of the project.

With the guidance of the library, Webber set out to create “Little Libraries” which would be erected at three different areas of the community.

Horseshoe Lake, Kiwanis and Landing Parks

are now home to easily accessible and readily available libraries. The best part about these Little Libraries is that no library cards are required, there are no due dates, no closing times or holidays and new titles will rotate in through the same patrons who borrow the books.

The libraries are essentially boxes raised on a stake which house the collection of books. Webber explains that the box part of the library is “about the size of a microwave.”

Each library box has a clear plastic window in the front so that patrons can see the books with the door closed but the book are protected from the rain.

The boxes themselves are made from wood but have metal roofs and each door features a light that comes on after dark when the door is opened.

To place these libraries, a three foot hole had to be dug in the ground and cement poured to keep the stakes in place.

The materials for the construction were donated by local businesses such as Home Depot, Sherwin Williams and Kuiken Brothers.

“I had to speak to a number of managers,” Webber explains, in order to obtain the supplies he needed for this project.

With the actual houses for the libraries built, Webber’s next goal was to fill them up. Books were donated by his fellow scouts, Troop 159, as well as the Roxbury Library Board. In total Webber estimates that 50 to 60 titles were donated to initially fill the Little Libraries.

Although at this time Webber is no longer looking for donations he would be happy to take any that will help sustain the project.

As Webber explains, the libraries are meant to be “take a book, put back a book” but anyone who visits the Little Library is welcome to borrow without replacing or even to keep the books they come to love.

“The library board will continuously stock if [the libraries] are lacking books,” states Webber.

The titles which have been collected for the Little Libraries vary greatly, there is a “multitude of different books, not only for one demographic,” Webber says, therefore readers of all ages and levels can enjoy.

An opening ceremony for Webber’s libraries was held on Sept. 17, officially opening his three Little Libraries.

Webber’s father, Ken, states, “Hunter is following in my footsteps, I am very proud of him.” Ken also remembers that the first day of stocking the libraries a father and child borrowed a book and sat on a park bench to enjoy it. Both fa-

ther and son note the satisfaction that was felt in that moment, already seeing a dream come to fruition.

Dentist Offers Treatment Options For Lost Teeth

entures are an affordable solution for missing teeth. However, they have their problems: they move around in the mouth, can be uncomfortable, cause sores, require adhesives and become embarrassing if they fall out in public. Worse than that, they can cause bone loss putting your jaw at risk as a person ages.

Some people don’t wear dentures, but have similar problems: constant pain, gum disease, an endless cycle of cavities, root canals, crowns, and extractions. As teeth are lost, other teeth shift, creating issues with chewing and smiling. Self-esteem decreases, as well as overall health.

Thankfully, dental implants can provide a solution. Improvements with comfort, stability, chewing, self-esteem, and overall health are all reported by people soon after implant treatment is completed.

Treatment options regarding implants can vary greatly: two to six implants can be placed to stabilize a denture, individual implants can be placed to replace missing teeth, or four to six implants can be utilized

to provide permanent teeth. This last option is called All-On-Four.

In the All-On-Four option, any remaining teeth are removed, four to six implants are placed, and teeth are attached to the implants. These three steps are typically performed in one appointment, so the patient is able to leave the dental office with teeth the same day. It should be noted that these are temporary teeth: the final teeth will be fabricated approximately four to six months later.

All-On-Four has revolutionized implant dentistry. Although more expensive than dentures, it is less expensive than traditional full-mouth implant reconstruction.

Costly and time-consuming grafting can oftentimes be avoided, too. Furthermore, pain levels are significantly decreased.

People sometimes think they are not implant candidates because of their age. This is a misconception. In fact, as a person ages, it becomes more important to be able to eat so that proper nutritional needs are met. Dentures do not provide proper biting force to chew food, plus they weaken

the jaw. Implants improve chewing ability, and strengthen the jaw as compared to dentures. A person’s health is a key factor when considering implants, not age.

Who should perform dental implant procedures? Only well-qualified dentists.

Seek out dentists who have extensive training in implant dentistry.

Dr. Ira Goldberg is a general dentist performing implant procedures for 22 years.

He is a diplomate of the American Board

C

of Oral Implantology / Implant Dentistry, a diplomate of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists, and a fellow of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry.

He performs all phases of implant dentistry at his office in Succasunna. and lectures to dentists in the field of implantology. For a free consultation, including a free 3-D scan, if necessary, call 973- 328-1225 or visit www.MorrisCountyDentist.com.

Bedel-Franklin Signs To Sacred Heart

oxbury High School hosted a Letter of Intent/College Commitment Ceremony Wednesday morning for Kayla Bedel-Franklin to sign with Sacred Heart University to play field hockey.

When asked to reflect on her time in Roxbury,

Bedel-Franklin shared, “I know it sounds cliché, but dreams do come true. Hard work does pay off. When I first picked up a stick my sophomore year, I never dreamed that three years later I would be signing to play at a Division 1 program. Committing to Sa-

cred Heart University will fulfill not only my athletic ambitions but academic ones as well. Through field hockey I found more than just a hobby, earned more than a scholarship, and received more than just accolades, I discovered a piece of myself in playing that

opened my eyes to a passion forever.”

Bedel-Franklin credits much of her success to her coaches, Diane Douglas and Kaitlyn Norgard, the entire field hockey program, and her family.

“I don’t really know the right words to say or how to even begin to express this. Is saying thank you enough? Those two simple words have so much more than trite meaning. Thank you to the Roxbury High School Field Hockey program. Thank you to Coaches Douglas and Norgard for patience and guidance.

Thank you to my teammates for giving me a family, a place where I’ve felt accepted and loved. Thank you to my parents for their unconditional support and constantly challenging me to do better.”

Douglas doesn’t ac-

cept the credit for helping Bedel-Franklin get to this point. She applauds all the hard work she put into the sport for her achievements as the leading scorer for the past two seasons.

“Kayla’s commitment and dedication to the game has been the backbone of her success,” she says.

“She practices and plays with an unparalleled intensity. She has led our team in scoring and is still developing as a player. We believe she is only going to continue to improve and succeed at the next level. We could not be more proud of her and everything that she has earned.”

Churches Join Together To Bring The Nativity Story To Life

by Elsie Walker he story takes place at a time when people weren’t sure if they could trust anything.

The valued counsel that seemed to once guide them was gone. For a long time, they held on to what they’d always believed; but as time passed, they wondered.

When things seemed out of their control, could they trust that all would be well?

Though it might seem like modern day, the scene is the little town of Bethlehem and the story is the birth of the baby Jesus.

That story will be brought to life through the talents of six area churches sharing songs, skits, puppetry, bell music and poetry. The 14th annual Christmas Arts program is set to be held on Dec. 4, at 5 p.m. at the Port Morris United Methodist Church in Landing. A free will offering will be taken.

The theme for this year’s program is “In God We Put Our Trust.” The story will share how Jesus’ mother, father, and the rest of those involved put their trust in God at a time when some wondered where’s God hand was in life.

During the annual event’s 14 years, various churches have shared their talents in telling the birth of Jesus. It is an intergen-

erational presentation with various age groups taking on roles. For some, it has become an annual tradition.

One of the mainstays is the husband and wife team of John and Cathy Bingham, representing The Flanders United Methodist Church.

“Cathy and I have been doing this for a while now and it is one of the highlights of our holiday season,” said John Bingham.

“We enjoy looking for new or special music and then sharing it with others. And it’s important to keep the story of Christ’s birth alive for our children to learn, understand and appreciate God’s love. We like how the art program brings together people with different ideas and talents to share in the telling of this important story.”

This year the Binghams will be doing “O Holy Night” and “What Child Is This.” In addition, the Flanders church’s choir will also be on hand, to sing “Go Tell it On the Mountain.”

Echoing Binghams’s comments about the program was Pam Laura, director of the children’s choir at St. James Episcopal Church in Hackettstown.

Another longtime participating group, Laura said, “We enjoy participating in the program because of its

unique use of various forms of performance and wide age range of the performers to highlight the story of the nativity. It enriches the story while providing attendees and participants alike an opportunity to experience different forms of the performing arts.”

The children’s choir, made up of children ages four – 12, will be doing an original piece by Laura called, “Come Shepherds, Come Sheep.” A unique thing about this choir is that it is a singing and signing choir. In the past, St. James Episcopal had a deal ministry. It no longer does, but the choir keeps the signing tradition alive by signing its songs.

Also providing vocal music will be soloists and groups from St. Michael’s Roman Catholic Church in Netcong, Valley View Chapel in Long Valley, St. Margaret of Scotland Church in Morristown, and the host church.

Bell music will be provided by the Trinity Ringers of Trinity United Methodist Church in Hackettstown under the direction of Jill Fedon. The bell choir is quite accomplished and has played at some impressive venues.

“The Trinity Ringers performed with the Cross

Border Orchestra of Ireland at Carnegie Hall in 2015; [they have] performed at Disney World through the Disney Performing Arts Program,” said Fedon. “As part of that trip, they also performed and volunteered at Give Kids the World, nonprofit “storybook” resort in Central Florida where children with life-threatening illnesses and their families are treated to week-long, cost-free vacations.”

Puppetry and skits done by members of the host church round out the program.

“At Port Morris United Methodist Church, December is the most special time of the year,” said Pastor Nick Petrov. “It is a busy and hectic time of preparation for the holidays, but it is also a time for our ecumenical Christmas Arts

program.

“Through the program, we declare that we are touched personally by God’s love. The birth of Jesus is a profound and mysterious sign of God’s love for us. Each year, at the annual Christmas Arts program, the choir of Port Morris United Methodist Church, the puppet ministry, as well as the performers and soloists from the

other churches make the joyful announcement that we can celebrate God’s love in unity despite the fact that we belong to different churches, denominations, confessions and faiths. This year, again, we will tell the Nativity story of Jesus’ love for all the earth. It is a privilege for Port Morris United Methodist Church to host such a joyful event.”

Warm The Chill With Best Chili In The Area

By Cheryl Conway ith the chill in the air, everyone seems to crave that comfy food to warm their insides like hot chocolate, tasty soups and spicy chili.

As a specialty throughout the season, Fresco Mexican in Chester will be serving its award winning chili.

Co-owner Marco Rojas along with his Head Chef Noe Hor Veliz and staff of Fresco Mexican recently won first place in Chester’s third Annual Harvest Celebration for his Smoked Pork Black Bean Tomatillo Chili.

Co-sponsored by Historic Chester Business Association (HCBA) and French’s Food Company, Fresco Mexican has competed for three years in the food fest, winning two years in a row for its chili. This year’s contest was held on Perry St., Sat., Oct. 15, from noon to 3 p.m., with restaurants competing for best soup, chili and dessert. The catch to this year’s contest was the participants had to use ingredients from French’s Food Company.

“It worked for us,” says Fresco Mexican Co-Owner Carlos Cervantes. “This year we had to use their products.

That’s what brought us to the win. He won.”

Out of ten contestants for the chili cook off from area restaurants such as in Morristown, Hackettstown and Madison, Rojas and Cervantes were thrilled to be selected as first place chili contest winners selected by judges’ choice blind taste test, says Cervantes. The judges were from CCM Culinary Arts Department, “Edible Jersey” Magazine and French’s Food Company.

Rojas was “over the top,” when he found out he won, says Cervantes. “He was ecstatic. We went up against some really good restaurants.”

Cervantes would not reveal Rojas’ secret recipe but says “it’s very fresh; nothing is canned.” The pork is roasted in banana leaves, resulting in its smoky pork, chili flavor.

“We use roast pork, black beans, smoked Mexican Chiles,” describes Rojas on the ilovechester.com food fest site. “We had to come up with a recipe, original recipe,” he says. “We do our own roast pork with black beans and tomatillos that makes it so unique, and smoked chili which

gives all the flavor to our final dish.”

Rojas describes one of the best things from his cooking.

“It is a big joy watching our customers taking the first bite and seeing the big smile on their face.”

Known for its authentic Mexican cuisine, Fresco Mexican typically does not feature chili on its menu. But since Rojas’ creation was such a hit, the owners decided to keep it on the menu as a “seasonal special” through the fall and maybe let it linger into the winter. Customers can try the chili for lunch or dinner with nachos, stuffed burritos or roasted chili relleno.

“Chili is more American” cuisine, says Cervantes. But with Rojas’ incredible background as a former executive chef of the Black Horse Pub in Mendham and Short Hills Club in Short Hills, his chili creation is that good.

Rojas, from Guadalajara Mexico, developed his regional style of Mexican cooking in his mother’s kitchen. It was there where he learned how to use the fresh produce, cheese, and meats from the local merchants.

He relocated to New Jersey in the late 80’s, working in those various restaurants before joining Cervantes in opening Fresco in Flanders in 2006. The pair relocated to Chester in 2010, opening Fresco Mexican. One year later,

in 2011, they opened a unique gift shop right next doorRandom Acts of Fresco - featuring hand-crafted artisan imports from countries such as Mexico, Peru, Guatemala, Haiti, and India “We have a beautiful trophy,” from the chili contest, says Cervantes, who moved to NJ from Key West in 1988.

He had started his career in hotels at the famed Pier House Beach Club and Resort then managed various restaurants throughout the northern NJ area; including 15 years at The Madison Hotel in Morristown as a sales and catering manager.

Fresco Mexican is open seven days a week, Sun.-Thu., 10:30 a.m.-9 p.m.; and Fri.-Sat., 10:30 a.m.-10 p.m.

Eisenhower Middle School Students Participate In Food Drive To Benefit Social Services

E

ach year the Roxbury Township Public Schools celebrates character education and Red Ribbon Month during the month of Oct. with weekly themed events and programs.

One program that most of the schools take part in during this time frame is an annual food drive for Roxbury Social Services. This year was no different for Eisenhower Middle School.

For two weeks, from Oct. 14 to 28, students brought in non-perishable food items for their respective grades collection pile.

At the end of the collection, the grade with the most items won a Halloween Social which took place on Fri., Oct. 28 at the end of the school day. The seventh grade

won this year, but Roxbury Social Services came out the big winner!

According to Principal Dominick Miller, “Eisenhower’s total collection this year was over 5,000 items. Eighth graders did a great job too and for their efforts, they will be getting an ice cream social in the near future.”

The three top collectors were eighth grade sisters, Regina and Rachel Perry and seventh grader, Paul Corrente. These students were rewarded with EMS swag bags filled with goodies just for them.

A handful of students took part on Fri. in delivering the collected items to Janet Wald at Roxbury Social Services located at the Horseshoe Lake Complex.

Roxbury Schools Honor Nation’s Veterans

wo of Roxbury Township Public Schools celebrated and honored nation’s Veterans recently. Both Eisenhower Middle School and Lincoln/ Roosevelt Elementary School held special presentations for Veterans and students on Wed., Nov. 9.

EMS kicked off Wednesday’s festivities with a staff sponsored breakfast for more than a dozen veterans. The student council and board of education members were able to sit and chat with these individuals before the morning assembly.

EMS Student Council President Samantha Wrobel shared why she thought Veteran’s Day programs at the schools were necessary.

“It is so important to have programs like this because not all the kids have family members who have served and they don’t get to experience the veterans otherwise,” she said.

This year’s EMS presentation was a collaborative effort with students, staff, and organizations. New this year was the eighth grade concert band participation under the direction of Jeff Conrad from Roxbury High School as well as the presentation of the colors from Girl Scout Troop

Fully Insured Free Estimates

94369.

Conrad wanted to participate in some way to honor the veterans not only in attendance but those from his family. He shared afterward that his grandfather, father, and brother have all served the country.

Veterans, including two from EMS, Principal Dominick Miller and Science Teacher John “Jack” Kummerer, were treated to a brief history of Veteran’s Day, patriotic music played and sung by the students, and brief readings.

An important point to note this year was the invitation to the veterans’ families to be present at this program. During the presentation, it was shared that having family in the military is not only difficult on the soldier but on the family members left behind and how “coming home” isn’t just coming home, it takes time for both the soldier and the family to readjust. It’s important just to be there for them.

EMS students and staff wrapped up their presentation with a video thanking all the veterans for their service and their freedom.

A few short hours later many of the same veterans headed over to Lincoln/Roosevelt School for lunch with some of the sixth-

grade students. These students were lucky enough to be able to sit and briefly interview all the veterans so they could be personally introduced at the assembly.

Lincoln/Roosevelt put on quite a show with music, dancing, and a history lesson for close to 30 veterans and students thanks to interim principal Cecil “Bud” Beavers and the Lincoln/Roosevelt staff connections.

Veterans and students were able to see military memorabilia and hear patriotic music. All came away from this assembly with a greater appreciation for veterans,

what they went through during times of war like having to have their own secret TAP Code language as POWs, and for the families missing them back home.

Assistant Principal Christopher Argenziano shared how his grandfathers all served in the military and had passed away.

The best message he could share with the students was to “not take time for granted.

Take the time to talk to veterans, your elders, and your family to learn about their history and stories and to know about the past.”

Teens Provide Meals And Warm Essentials To Those In Need Through Renewal Congregation

T

By Cheryl Conway eens throughout the area are getting in on the action by preparing meals for the homeless, donating to food drives for the local pantry and collecting outer gear to warm those living on the streets or in shelters.

The group called Social Teen Action Fellows just formed this fall through the Or Ha Lev Jewish Renewal Congregation in Roxbury.

About six teens, both pre and post bar and bat mitzva students, participate in this community action work for social justice.

The teens have been joining about 20 individuals affiliated with this congregation who gather at members’ homes to prepare meals and collect items to help those in need once a month for the past three years.

On Sun., Nov. 6, the group delivered gloves, hats and scarves to St. Lucy’s Shelter in Jersey City. Some members crocheted “gorgeous hats,” and scarves were made from cut winter flannel materials and fleece, describes Rabbi Debra Smith of Parsippany, religious leader at Or Ha Lev Jewish Renewal Congregation. “Members cut them and prepare them,” she says.

Providing meals also is a priority. Its next gathering is set for Sun., Dec. 4, to prepare more meals.

“Each first Sunday every month we make and deliver 175 meals to St. Lucy’s Shelter in Jersey City,” says Smith who is known as “Reb Deb.” All vegetarian meals, including sandwiches, salads and desserts are prepared and delivered by members.

Smith got connected with the shelter through Zamir Hassan, national organizer of the Faiths Against Hunger, when she heard him speak years back.

“We used to seek out homeless people in Jersey City,” says her husband, Neil Smith, a retired mohel who helps lead the services through his music. “Most would reside at the shelter.

We made the connection that the same people are going to the shelter. It’s much more efficient.”

The congregation also constantly collects and provides food to the Roxbury Food Pantry. Volunteers are currently collecting items for Thanksgiving meals such as cranberry sauce, stuffing and yams, says Smith.

“Our mission in addition to prayer is to serve the community,” says Smith.

“You serve without bias.

When our people bring food to the shelter, they don’t just drop it off, they go in.”

Smith, a long-time resident of Long Valley, began Or Ha Lev Jewish Renewal Congregation in 2013. She selected Succasunna as the congregation’s gathering place because of its central location to multiple towns seeking new denomination in Judaism, she says. The closest congregations of this denomination are in Monmouth and Philadelphia.

Or Ha Lev, which means “light of the heart,” is a new denomination in Judaism sought by individuals that “are just not satisfied with traditional forms that are out there,” explains Smith.

Its ideals come out of Hasidic Judaism, she explains, but “you wouldn’t recognize it. It uses traditional Judaism in terms of prayer, holidays and beliefs but has unique elements in prayer life. We do a lot a meditation, chanting, drumming, our services are musical. It’s presented in a very energetic and unique way.”

The congregation has grown from 12 individuals to 40 family members. The growing group forced her to move her services from her family room in her house to

rented space at Redeemer Lutheran Church in Succasunna. For Passover last year, Smith organized an interfaith Seder for 60 people at the church.

“Part of my mission is to work in the interfaith community,” says Smith. “It’s called deep ecumenism which is a philosophy of engaging in other faith groups, build relationships and make this a healthier place.”

Friday night services are held at 7:30 at the church,

and Shabbat services are held one Saturday per month. Smith also provides individual instruction as far as Hebrew school lessons, adult education classes one Sunday a month and an adult Hebrew class. Without a building fund, dues are kept low with members paying $300 per person to join or $600 per family, says Smith. Annual dues include attendance to all of the High Holiday services. continued on next page

Roxbury Police Dept. Assists In Local Food Drive

he Roxbury Township Police Department is assisting Roxbury Social Services in hosting a Township Thanksgiving Food Drive. Throughout November Roxbury residents will have the opportunity to donate nonperishable items at the police department. The food pantry is extremely low of supplies and is in desperate need of donations. The day before Thanksgiving the food will be donated to Roxbury Social Services to assist low-income working families, seniors and people with disabilities, living on fixed incomes.

The food pantry exists solely on the generous donations from individuals and local businesses. Many individuals and families in the township rely on social services and the food pantry. Any donations are welcome.

In addition, the Thanksgiving Holiday is a great time to educate children about taking an active role in their community by

helping to fight hunger. If a child brings in items to the police department, they will become a Fighting Hunger Hero. They will have their picture taken with an officer and it will be posted on the police department’s Facebook page. While supplies last, each child will receive a T-Shirt and they may be picked to receive a tour of the police department.

Items that the pantry is in desperate need of include coffee, tea, juice, mac and cheese, kid’s snacks, cans of vegetables, mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, canned fish, chicken and meat, cup of noodles, small containers of sugar and flour, oil, diapers, shampoo, conditioner, dish soap, laundry detergent, napkins, paper towels, deodorant and razors.

Questions regarding donations, contact Jennifer Dillard at 973-448-2037; jdillard@roxburypd.com or Janet Wald at Roxbury Social Services at 973-448-2026.

Teens Provide Meals...

continued from previous page The congregation “had a huge turnout” this year, says Smith, who attended rabbinical school for five years at Aleph Alliance for Jewish Renewal and has a masters in Jewish studies from Gratz College, both in Philadelphia. “We had many, many people who called who came.”

Family members come from “all over” including surrounding areas such as Randolph, Mt. Olive, Chester, Morristown, Hackettstown, Netcong and Morris Plains.

For more information or to join, go to orhalevnj.org; call Smith at 908-303-8374; or email her at hineni77@gmail.com.

ith baking season here, it’s time to turn on the oven, bring out the recipes and enjoy the spicy aromas wafting from the kitchen - a promise of delicious treats ahead.

Bars, whether they are cookie, cake or even pie, are the easiest to make and serve, especially when there’s a crowd clamoring for dessert. You might have a pumpkin or sweet potato bar in your repertoire, but Aunt Nellie’s suggests Carrot Crumble Bars for a change of pace.

Grab a jar of glazed, sliced carrots, slightly sweet and spicy, and ready to enjoy in numerous ways. They are also a great time-saving step for this delicious dessert.

They’re cooked and ready to eat, so just puree the entire jar of carrots and add the remaining four ingredients. That’s it for the tasty filling, which is nestled between a crunchy oat crust and topping. Start to fin-

Bake A Batch Of Bars For Dessert

ish in under an hour, most of the ingredients are probably already in your kitchen.

Plus, they can be made a couple of days in advance and refrigerated until serving time.

The family can enjoy them for a yummy weeknight dessert or make them company-perfect topped with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, sprinkled lightly with pumpkin pie spice.

Find this and other recipes from Aunt Nellie’s jarred vegetables at AuntNellies.com.

Carrot Crumble Bars Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 30 minutes Servings: 16 Crust/Topping: 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 cup old-fashioned oats 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Filling: 1 jar (15.5 ounces) Aunt Nellie’s Glazed Small Sliced Carrots 1 egg, beaten 1/4 cup granulated sugar 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Heat oven to 350 F. In large bowl, combine flour, oats and brown sugar. Add butter; stir to coat. Reserve 1/3 cup for topping. Press remaining mixture evenly into bottom of 9-inch square baking pan lined with aluminum foil, if desired. Bake 10 minutes, or until lightly browned and set.

For filling, place carrots and liquid in food processor or blender container; puree until smooth. Transfer to medium bowl.

Add egg, sugar, pumpkin pie spice and vanilla; stir until well combined. Pour over

baked crust.

Sprinkle carrot mixture evenly with reserved crumbs. Bake 30 minutes, or until knife inserted near center comes out clean.

Cool completely on wire rack. Refrigerate until firm.

Cut into 16 squares. Refrigerate leftovers, covered, for up to 3 days.

Roxbury Students Cultivate Kindness That Really Rocks

W

By J.L. Shively hen on holiday in Cape Cod, MA, Renee Zengel, an art teacher at Roxbury High School, did not expect to find artistic inspiration on the ground but that is exactly where she found it.

“My family came across a #KindnessRocksProject at the end of a dock,” says Zengel. On further investigation of the hashtag Zengel unearthed the inspirational movement that is happening across the country.

What Zengel found at the end of the dock in Cape Cod were colorfully painted rocks which have inspirational messages on them. Examples of messages on these rocks include saying such as “You Matter,” “Speak the Truth, Even if Your Voice Shakes,” and “In the End What Will Matter Most?”

The intention of leaving these small messages is to pass on hope and positive words to people who need them.

“Rocks can be taken by someone going

through something difficult in their life or taken and then given to another person who needs the inspiration,” explains Zengel. In this way anonymous words of comfort and motivation can connect strangers through a web of support.

The goals of a Kindness Rock Project, as outlined by Zengel, is to inspire others with “randomly placed rocks” while also recruiting everyone who comes across the kindness rocks to “join the pursuit of inspiring others through random acts of kindness.”

Zengel has done her part in this movement by bringing it to her students at Roxbury High School.

“Due to the social media connection that encourages you to post photos of your rock or visit a kindness rock project, I decided to work with my photography students” on this project states Zengel.

By posting photos of Kindness Rock Projects on Instagram or Facebook, the movement is kept alive for others to benefit from and enjoy.

Residents are all familiar with the Kind-

ness for Christopher movement which began in June 2015 to commemorate the great but short life of Christopher D’Amico. It is therefore no surprise that members of the community had already begun

a Kindness Rock Project, leaving painted rocks with “Kindness for Christopher” written on their face.

“It was then that I decided to combine continued on next page

Cultivate Kindness...

continued from previous page the two inspirational ideas,” states Zengel, explaining her resolve to create a Kindness Rock garden which also paid tribute to the kindness shared by D’Amico and which continues to be remembered by his family and the community on the twenty-fourth of every month.

“Some of the students in my classes know members of Christopher’s family so they were really motivated to be a part of this experience,” says Zengel.

After consulting about the best location for the rock garden with Meg Fagan, who takes care of the garden located in the front of the school, Zengel put her students to work.

“The students were given paint and were allowed to color the rock to help amplify the positivity of their quote,” Zengel says while sharing some of the students motivating quotes, such as “Be the Change in the World” and “Everyday Brings News Choices.”

The students were given time in class to work on their creations and figure out what inspirational saying suited them best.

“This opportunity was such a positive ex-

perience for all of the students to work on together,” Zengel reflects.

On the completion of painting their rocks, students then met outside in the garden to place their rocks, take photos and join together for a group photo. Each student then posted the photos of their kindness rocks on Oct. 24, which is the day the Kindness for Christopher movement calls for a random act of generosity.

To follow these movements in the community check out the hashtags #kindnessrocks and #kindnessforchristopher.

The Kindness Rock Project is intended to be an ongoing movement. Many teachers and peer leaders intend on contributing to this garden of inspiration and the garden is expected to keep growing in new ways as visitors come and go with new inspiration and leave with refreshed motivation.

As this project is open to the entire community the network of support and link to the inspiration of others, even if anonymously, could make a huge difference in the life of someone living right next door.

Those are some positive results that really rock!
