MESSAGE from the RABB IDear Friend,

Are you my neighbor? If so, we share a common goal: to provide the highest quality life for our wonderful community. A high-quality life for a Jew is a Torah-focused life which takes purpose and commitment.

As emissaries of The Lubavitcher Rebbe, leader of the Chabad movement, we are here on Palm Beach for you.

Did you know that Palm Beach is 50% Jewish? That’s why my wife Hindel and I are busy providing mezuzahs on Worth Avenue shops, Torah classes and lectures, Jewish holiday parties, children’s programs, women’s events, regular Shabbos services and guest speakers, public celebrations with music in the streets, all geared for personal, familial, and communal spiritual growth.

Judaism is a lifelong journey. We are here to assist you on this journey by making Judaism relevant to you personally and available to you without judgment or prerequisites.

Finding out how you can take advantage of all that Chabad has to offer is as effortless as picking up your phone and dialing mine to plan our coffee date.

Yours,RABB I ZALMAN LEV IT IN

SHABBOSKeep the Shabbos and it will keep you. Jews have experienced this truth for thousands of years. Disconnect from the workweek and see for yourself.

Weekly Shabbos services at Chabad invite participants to experience prayer in an inviting and holy atmosphere. Services are followed by a sit-down dinner on Friday nights and Kiddush lunch on Shabbos mornings, where we connect with fellow Jews, and appreciate words of inspiration from the rabbi and guest lecturers.

I felt the beauty and power of Shabbat when I wandered in several years ago after my mom passed away. I send my brothers and sisters a good Shabbat message, and [even though I moved away] I still light my candles every Friday night with my mom’s candlesticks. I will forever be grateful for the both of you.

Hope to visit next time I’m in town.

Frumma and Simcha GottliebWHAT NOW?Wednesday, December 19More than 10,000 Americans are retiring every day. The dynamic Gottlieb couple has traveled to far corners of the planet sharing their insights on what’s next in the third act of life. Can we make life meaningful, joyful and powerful at any age? Can we transform loneliness and rekindle romance?

Frumma Gottlieb has been cited in Time as an authority on Jewish meditation and mindfulness. Simcha Gottlieb, acupuncturist and doctor of Oriental medicine, is a respected

Sassy ReuvenRAID ON ENTEBBEMonday, January 14On June 27, 1976, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and the German Revolutionary Cell hijacked an Air France plane with 248 passengers enroute to Paris from Tel Aviv. The hijackers rerouted the plane

to Entebbe, Uganda, where the local government and dictator Idi Amin supported the terrorists. The non-Jewish pilot, Captain Bacos, and his crew, chose to stay behind with the hostages. The hijackers threatened to kill the hostages; this threat led directly to the rescue operation Raid on Entebbe which Sassy Reuven was called to take part in. His story takes you through the daring mission to its completion.

Sasson (Sassy) is a veteran of the Israeli Defense Force, who served in the IDF’s elite Red Beret paratrooper unit. Sassy’s story is Israel’s story: one of courage, endurance, defiance, and willingness

to sacrifice it all, for the right to live in peace as a Jew.

Rosh Lowe“IT WAS A MISCOMMUNICATION!”Wednesday, February 6If you want to succeed in business and your personal life, the ability to express yourself is as critical as oxygen. It’s not only about speaking for an audience of hundreds of people. It’s also in the everyday moments that e¢ective expression is necessary. Have you been hoping to reconnect with a family member? Do you need to unburden a certain frustration to your spouse? Do you wish for a better-performing employee? Even when the

LECTURE series


most important audience is that one person, Rosh Lowe can help you communicate e¢ectively.

Rosh Lowe starred in numerous Broadway shows beginning at age nine and has been a television news reporter for Fox in Miami for the past 15 years. He recently launched his own public-

speaking training firm called MicDrop. His decades-long experience in the theatre has taught him secrets of connecting with an audience and performance skills that he now gives his clients in a practical formula called the Lowe Technique.

Simcha WeinsteinUP, UP, AND OY VEYWednesday, March 6Gallery Biba: 224 Worth Avenue, Palm BeachThe entertainment industry interests everyone and now you can be privy to Simcha Weinstein’s discovery of the fascinating link between that industry, particularly the popular superheroes, and Jewish tradition. As he writes in the opening line of his book: “Before Superman, Batman, and Spider-Man, there were the superpatriarchs and supermatriarchs of the Bible and heroic figures named Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David and Samson – not to mention the miracle-working prophet Elijah and those Jewish wonderwomen Ruth and Esther, just to name a few. They all wielded courage and supernatural powers to protect and serve their people.” Wine and sushi will be served.

Sip warm and toasty drinks from the co¢ee cart baristas, enjoy delectable pastries, fresh fruit and a fabulous lunch in the comfort of the beautiful outdoors. Keynote speaker Rivkah Slonim will address controversial issues in her provocative talk, “Women in the Synagogue: A Critical Look at Critical Issues,” a frank discussion of the legal, historical and sociological aspects of the challenges to the modern Jewish woman. Mrs. Slonim will address the purpose of the mechitzah, who is counted in a minyan and the role women have in leading synagogue services and reading from the Torah.

Rivkah Slonim is the education director at the Chabad Center for Jewish Student Life at Binghamton University. A self-described “Chassidic Feminist,” she lectures internationally on the intersection of Jewish observance and contemporary life with a special focus on Jewish

women. She is the editor of Total Immersion: A Mikvah Anthology and Bread and Fire: Jewish Women Find G-d in the Everyday, an anthology on Jewish women’s spirituality. Slonim and her husband are the grateful and proud parents of nine children.
