And so 2012 is nearly at an end, and what a year it’s
been! A year of extremes that included everything
from the excitement of spectacular Olympic games to
an American election and the destruction of the storm
Sandy across a vast continent.
I look forward to Chanukah candles and a plethora
of concerts that this time of year usually means for
our family - and without wanting to sound too ‘Miss
Worldy’- I hope that peace will become a reality for everybody, and that 2013
brings us closer to that goal.
We are also looking forward to celebrate the 60th anniversary of our
FPS community next year, which made us wonder: How do you create a
synagogue family like ours in the first place? What are the crucial ingredients
that come together to form a spiritual and practical community? In other
words, where’s the magic?
You can read our various attempts at an answer in this Shofar, and I invite
you to come up with your own take on what ‘makes’ a synagogue, and what
makes this particular shul such a warm and lovely place to be.
Happy Chanukah to you all from your Shofar team!

From the Rabbi
The miracle of Chanukah has been slightly ‘over
egged’ by Jewish tradition. The oil and candles
and unexpected leftovers have lubricated the
story for generations and made it all the more
powerful for a December celebration. We love
fanciful tales and myths that promise a little
magic. But perhaps the real message is a slightly
different one. Chanukah means dedication.
Chanukat Habayit is the dedication of a house.
It’s a delicious irony that at each Chanukah
we are in a sense dedicating something, our
chanukiah, home, perhaps even the synagogue.
As we light the candles there is a recollection
(sometimes unconscious) that each person,
in each era, in each family chooses the form
of Judaism that is right for them and that is
there. No longer Hellenists vs Maccabees or
Assimilationists vs Pious; our situation is more
nuanced now and our lighting candles at
Chanukah recalls it. Maimonides insisted we
light the chanukiah in the window for all to
see: a public declaration of our Judaism, not
always an easy thing to do. Electing to be part
of a synagogue is just such a choice. We who
read Shofar choose a synagogue, not just gym
membership. We see the worth and value in
being part of a cultural, religious, educational
and concerned institution that has walls
and ceilings and is a place to go. Chanukah
encourages that thought along with the
chocolate money and latkes.
This year we are thinking of the rather
different experience of being a Jew in Belarus,
one of the three remaining communists states.
Being Jewish and joining a synagogue is much
more of a struggle there. That’s why, led by
our Twin community Mogilev group, we’re
raising money this Chanukah to help that
synagogue community rent a dry, warm part of
a building and dedicate it for themselves. We
hope our Chanukah will result in their Chanukat
Habayit - a dedication of a space that will be as
comforting, inspirational and warm as many of
our synagogues are here.

From the Councillaura lassman
For many people
synagogue life just
happens. The majority
of members are
blissfully unaware
of the trials and
tribulations of
managing: the tears, the frustrations, the
challenges and the achievements. There is
so much happening and so many volunteers
enabling us to achieve our goals, that I wanted
to share just some of the matters that Council
has been addressing recently.
finances
It’s budget time of year and we were
pleased to see that we could break-even this
year after an effective £15,000 deficit in 2011.
Looking ahead, we will be challenged to find
sufficient resources in 2013 to provide all the
services (in their broadest sense) that FPS
would like to deliver: education, worship,
pastoral care, cultural events, social action,
support for the wider community and a building
fit for purpose.
While recognising the economic hardship
that some of our members are experiencing,
we also have to raise enough funds to maintain
and develop the community. Members will be
receiving their subscription invoices shortly and
we would ask any households that can offer
more than their own membership fee to make
a donation so that we can cope with reduced
subscriptions where they are needed.
We are not very good at fundraising
although there have been some very generous
donations over the past year. There are also
opportunities for enterprise and this will be a
focus in the year ahead. FPS has to be self-
sufficient and this is a challenge that can be
stimulating and embraced; wouldn’t it be great
if we could reduce subs next year because we
have established other revenue streams?
organisation
We have been reorganising the Council
and committee structures to make them
more suited to the way we live now. Council
meets bi-monthly and rather than having
many committees meeting regularly, we are
establishing working groups that will focus on
action in particular areas of synagogue life.
The groups will identify and respond to defined
projects so that volunteers have manageable
tasks and the potential for real achievement.
These working task groups are organised
under three areas: Beit Tefillah (Worship),
Beit Midrash (Education) and Beit Knesset
(Community). Officers and Council members
are attached to one of these groups to maintain
co-ordination and cohesion.
Finance and Operations are the
responsibility of Treasurers and Hon Secretary.
If you would like to be involved in one of the
task groups please let me know.
60th anniversary
Planning is well under way with the aim of
providing something for every member during
the year. Please see the enclosed brochure
for the calendar of events. Make a note of the
dates if something appeals to you and if you
would like to participate in the organisation
of any of these events please contact Jacquie
Fawcett [email protected]

60th Anniversarylionel lassman & darren beach
The Hebrew term for Synagogue, Beit Knesset,
means a ‘House of Meeting’ and that has always
been its primary function. We can learn at home
by reading a book but when we come together
to learn in the Synagogue, we create a meeting
of minds. We can pray alone, any time, any
place, but when we come together to pray in
the Synagogue, we create a meeting of souls.
We can eat in a restaurant, sing in the shower,
dance in the street and chat on Skype; but when
we come together to do all of these things in the
Synagogue, we create a meeting of bodies.
When you have a meeting of bodies, a
meeting of minds and a meeting of souls, you
have community; that unique and elusive
phenomenon that is, above all else, what
Synagogue must be.
We connect with other people through our
workplaces, our educational institutions and our
hobbies but we do not create community in the
most encompassing sense. Community is cross-
generational, interdisciplinary and permanent; it
has the potential to touch on every aspect of our
lives and our being. It is a place where we can
receive as well as give; it is a place where we can
teach as well as learn. It is a place where, at any
stage of our lives, whatever our interests and
skills, whatever our needs and means, we can
find a home.
Building a Beit Knesset that is a place of
meeting and a true community is not easy and
it becomes harder as our society becomes more
individualistic, fragmented and commercially
driven. At times it can be a tireless and thankless
task but it is most certainly the task that drew
me to the Rabbinate and that underpins Liberal
Judaism and Liberal Jewish Communities.
Rabbi Anna Gerrard works for Liberal Judaism as
part of their new Rabbinical Team, with specific
responsibility for Outreach and Community
Development. Anna is committed to dynamic,
progressive Judaism that speaks to today’s Jew,
interested in thinking about Liberal Judaism’s
relationship to the State of Israel and passionate
about wild swimming.

what makes a synagogue?
here’s an idea for a chanukah present!
James Woolf, one of our members writes:
If any synagogue members have children,
nephews or nieces, etc and enjoy reading
poems to them, one of my poems appears in a
new collection - 50 Funny Poems for Children -
produced by a new publisher called Thynks.
You can order copies from
[email protected] or from
your local bookshop. Alternatively, the book
is available via Amazon. (click “more buying

As we think about the meaning of synagogue
in our lives, I can reflect on the recent High
Holy Days when I attended a liberal, reform and
united service in the 25 hours of Yom Kippur.
This won’t be (at this point) a compare and
contrast as Shofar readers probably know what
will come out on top; but it gave me a unique
opportunity to see what synagogue really
means for me, and many of us.
Kol Nidre on home turf, and running late,
I was met with very beautiful and emotive
singing that took me straight to the meaning
of this most important day. As I reflected on
my year, I felt held by the collective gathering
that a packed service can bring. I had a sense
of being part of something significant and of
not being alone. The music was so evocative
and I felt privileged to be able to experience
something so powerful and soulful.
Out of my reverie and straight into a
Reform service at a synagogue that is near to
family and yet very unfamiliar. The children’s
service was carefully crafted to be respectful
60th Anniversarysarah barnett
the shul crawl of Yom Kippur and yet engage the young with
this day and Judaism in general. Bar FPS, few
synagogues can be counted as super friendly,
but we were wholly welcomed and of course
the service was so familiar to us. All the way
across N.W London, and a whole different
progressive movement, there we were united
by the same songs, history and traditions.
And then to United. The final, Neilah service
I experienced in the synagogue of my youth.
The overwhelming sense of warmth that comes
with seeing people you grew up with, who you
haven’t seen for over 10 years, but they still
know everything about you. Perhaps this would
have felt invasive in my twenties but instead
it felt like I was being looked after and cared
about by this shul. It was like a very caring
aunt.
As I sat at the back and, having lost my
place in the service, I asked the people around
me for the page number, and three rows of
women had no idea where we were. We all
laughed as we recognised the very social aspect
of going to synagogue, even on Yom Kippur.

Tzedek is the Jewish community’s international development charity. We are now recruiting for Trustees to help steer Tzedek on its next three years of growth and success. Our Trustees are required to execute good judgement in steering the organisation, to make sure we remain fiscally sustainable as well as true to our mission, and bring skill, experience and energy to the organisation. This is the perfect opportunity for someone who is ready to give back to the Jewish community and make a difference in the world.

Thursday 12 December: Jewish Sovereignty and Leadership / Hannah Weisfeld and Daniel ReiselWhen the rabbis of the Talmud look back at the
loss of Jewish sovereignty in the Land of Israel
in the year 70, the conclusion they draw is that
Jewish infighting and disunity was as much to
blame as the Roman Empire. Together we will
read the story and explore the lessons it may
hold for us today and discuss where we might
take our personal inspiration from when our
vision for Israel does not match up to the reality
in front of us. This session will also explore
some of the personal stories of individuals
involved in social change in Israel and will look
at how we can best channel our energy from
the Diaspora to be part of a solution.

with Richard Dreyfuss, as a struggling actor,
tackling Richard III remains one of the all time,
memorable Shakespearean travesties.
On a recent visit to Israel I went to the cinema
in Haifa along with many thousands of the
mixed local population, both Jew and Arab.
I had gone to see the new James Bond film, in
English but with sub-titles in Ivrit. At one point
in the film a character let out a loud expletive
– “Christ”. The Ivrit translation was “Elohim”!
It was no accident because on a later occasion
another character shouted “Oh Christ” and
again the sub-title read “Elohim”.
Are we to deduce from this that the author of
the sub-titles acknowledges that the Christian
messiah is indeed God? Or am I reading too
much into it?
Lionel Lassman
Another member quickly came up with the
following: ‘Christ’ (Christos) is the Greek
translation of Hebrew ‘anointed’, i.e. Messiah -
would that work better as an expletive?
Best,

My Kind of Judaism
this is a shorter version of an article which was first published in shofar in january 1998. sadly kay died in october. we wish her family long life.
I did not choose to be Jewish, but it has never
occurred to me to wish to be anything else.
I grew up in Stamford Hill, North London, in
the 1930s – a perilous time for Jews – but it
wasn’t until I wrote an affectionate memoir
of my family and relations last year that I fully
realised how complete and close was my Jewish
background.
It was not a matter of being religious; so far
as I know neither my mother’s nor my father’s
side of the family belonged to a synagogue.
But everyone knew what to do when the Jewish
holidays came round, how to behave, what to
eat, how to mourn for a levoyah or celebrate
a simcha. Judaism was part of my being, and I
always kept on my guard against the goyim.
Many writers of the time – Belloc, the
Chestertons, Buchan, to name but a few – were
anti-Semites. The aristocracy and many of the
working class were anti-Semitic as a matter of
course. Fights between Mosley’s Blackshirts
and the Communists (among whom were many
Jews) were commonplace. After Jewish Girl
Guide meetings I and a friend used regularly
to walk from Stoke Newington to Stamford
Hill (to save the tram fare), stopping to buy
roast chestnuts or baked potatoes, and we felt
perfectly safe in a way that today’s children
might not. Yet she told me only recently that
when she was on her own she once cracked the
bottom off a milk bottle and used it to protect
herself against a gang of loutish, name-calling
junior Blackshirts going home from a dance
hall.
But along with fear went a fierce pride in
being Jewish. When I went to Tottenham High
School for Girls on a scholarship there were only
two other Jewish girls in my class. We always
came top of the form – another matter of pride.
One day a teacher announced that a
German Jewish refugee was to join us. We
knew something of Hitler’s persecution, and
thought sentimentally of doing good to this
undernourished, haunted waif. But when Anna
arrived she was large and smiling, with two
black plaits swinging from her head. She learnt
English in a term and soon was getting top
marks in class, too. Because we didn’t attend
Christian prayers we Jewish girls were easily
identified and several of our teachers were
anti-Semitic. I sometimes heard the epithet
(dirty Jew) as I was walking to school and my
sister used to go the long way round to avoid
one particular boy at the end of our street.
When she got a job later at Swan and Edgar’s
Piccadilly store, she was sacked for being
Jewish. Swine and Edgar was what she called it.
No Race Relations Act in those days!
So being Jewish was bred into me, but not
Judaism as such. That I chose for myself at a
very early age. I was always of a speculative
disposition and at 16 I read a book called
“Conditions of Happiness”, which led me
to conclude that spiritual growth was a
kay pilpel
...everyone knew what to do when the Jewish holidays came round, how to behave, what to eat, how
to mourn for a levoyah or celebrate a simcha.

necessary part of life. A little later two of my
acquaintances tried to recruit me into the
Communist party. Many young people at that
time believed that only Socialism could change
society for the better. I refused: I wanted no
part of a purely materialistic creed.
I met my future husband when I moved
from an insurance company, where I was a
typist, to a become secretary to the editor
of a little advertising trade paper off Fleet
Street, where he was working as an apprentice
journalist. It was a dingy, Dickensian place and
production was often interrupted by air raids.
When he finally asked me out (according to me
after six months; according to him only three),
I refused on the ground that he wasn’t Jewish
and my parents wouldn’t approve. Luckily I was
wrong on both counts.
We married in 1951 and in due course we
joined a synagogue, the members of which
in those days used to meet in one another’s
homes, in church halls or the library. Two of
the members, older than us, had markedly
different attitudes to their faith. He was pious,
very observant, good, a committed Jew. His
wife, just as dedicated, told me that she did
not believe in God, but she worked tirelessly
for the shul. Those two sides – the spiritual and
the practical – seem to me the essence of our
religion.
I have always felt the comfort of prayer
among good people. When I contemplate that
scroll, originally covered in plain black velvet,
which was rescued for our synagogue from the
ruins of Slavkov/Austerlitz, miles and miles
from where I live, I feel a fierce kinship with
them. I do not want to betray their memory.
Those who suffered so appallingly just for being
Jewish will not suffer indifference on my part,
nor do I forget their terrible fate.
I find no difficulty in believing in God – or
good, as a Yorkshire friend of mine chooses
to pronounce it. When it comes to a choice
between chaos and order I have no doubts
about which side I am on. And I find no
difficulty in recognising the existence of evil in
society; how else would we recognise good?
To me arguments about whether God
exists are pointless. How can one prove the
quality of love, especially of a transcendental
kind, other than by pointing to a multiplicity
of good deeds in a naughty world? Mitzvot are
essential to make a good life. I feel the need of
a moral spindle, the encouragement of biblical
study, the guidance of the Commandments, the
prayers from which I draw inspiration, comfort
and strength. The candle of my belief has never
guttered, in spite of troubles and distress.
A letter-writer in The Times said: “belief in
God is an attitude of mind and a positioning of
oneself towards the world which arises from
experience, from confrontation with one’s
everyday problems, and from deep reflection on
the meaning of life”. I could not have put it so
clearly when I was growing up in the 1930s, but
looking back now over the span of many years I
realise how much I owe to being born Jewish –
and being proud of it!
When it comes to a choice between chaos and order I have no doubts
about which side I am on.
