Atthis year’s lecture,entitled Edith Stein:Jewish Apostate and Catholic Saint, LeoraBatnitzky, one of the world’s foremost Jewishstudies scholars, will illuminate for us afascinating historical episode that embodiesthe immense tragedy and pathos of theShoah and its aftermath.Edith Stein was murdered in Auschwitzin August 1942. Born into a traditionalJewish family, Stein was baptized into theCatholic faith on New Year’s Day 1922.In October 1933, she began the processof becoming a Carmelite Nun, in whichcapacity she would take the name “TeresaBenedicta of the Cross.” Pope John Paul IISuper Bowl PartyEnjoy the game and feaston BBQ from Dougieswhile raising tzedakahfor Project ORE andthe Met CouncilSunday, February 2, 5:00 pmSee Page 4Cross in 1987 and subsequently canonizedher, later declaring her a patron saint of theEuropean Union. Stein continued to seeherself as a Jew despite her conversion, apoint emphasized in her canonization, as towhich Catholics and Jews have had jarringlydifferent reactions. Pope John Paul II sawStein’s canonization as an opportunity forChristian and Jewish reconciliation. Yet hisview that Stein embodied a hybrid Jewishand Christian identity irritated some Jewishobservers who understood that Stein wasmurdered precisely because she was borna Jew.Professor Batnitzky’s lecture will focuson the theological dimensions of Stein’scontested legacies. Her overview will includeconsideration of the history of JewishChristian dialogue and especially the painfuldebates about Christian supersessionism,Stein’s relationship to her contemporaryFranz Rosenzweig who himself almostconverted to Christianity, and Stein’sarguments about empathy, the subject ofher dissertation supervised by philosopherShabbat ShirahFriday and SaturdayFebruary 7 and 8A Cappella with KaskesetMusical Friday Night ServiceSermon in SongSpecial KiddushPost-Kiddush ConcertMusical HavdalahKaskeset is the Jewish a cappellagroup from SUNY BinghamtonSee Page 51Edmund Husserl, himself a Jewish convertto Christianity.

Yet, only about35% of all adults have 20/20 vision withoutglasses, contact lenses or corrective surgery.In other words, two-thirds of us can’t seeclearly without correction! I take this to meanthat most of us need guidance to have clearvision.We would all like to have 20/20 foresightbut, unfortunately, most of us have 20/20experience, we can see how we might havechosen a different path. But, we only havethe option to move forward.I have always thought that we Jews arevery fortunate to have two new years everyyear. If we haven’t gotten a good start onour Rosh Hashanah resolutions, we getanother chance a few months later. What anadvantage!Or Zarua is always moving forward –guided by its founding principles. Thirty-oneyears ago this month, on January 28, 1989,morning service. The small group of pioneerswho gathered in the 2nd Floor Chapel ofThe 92nd Street Y had no idea where thatservice would lead them—and us.The founders were committed tocreating a new synagogue on the UpperEast Side dedicated to teachings in PirkeAvot: Al sh’losha devarim ha’olam omeid:Al ha’Torah, v’al ha-avodah v’al gemiluthasadim. The world stands on three things:On the Torah, on divine service, and ondeeds of loving-kindness. Among ourfounding principles were to be traditional inour service, including the complete Torahreading each Shabbat. We were foundedto be participatory in our lay-led services.And, we were founded to be completelyegalitarian where women could participateequally with men.We are still committed to those sameprinciples. And, they have played out inways few could have anticipated in 1989.Certainly, women have learned to read Torah,Haftorah, and to lead services. And men,too, have studied and gained those skills. Wehave educated our children to read and lead,as well.Over the past 31 years, the founders and2those who have gathered around them, builta synagogue community that continues thededication to Torah – learning for adults andchildren; Religious services – daily, Shabbatand Yom Tov; and Hesed projects thatenhance the lives of those in our immediatecommunity and in Israel.We at Or Zarua learn together, praytogether, participate and connect with oneanother and the community.We will celebrate our 31st birthdaywith the annual Lucy Dawidowicz lectureon Wednesday, January 29, 2020, whenPrinceton Professor Leora Batnitzky willaddress us regarding Edith Stein, a Jewishwoman who became a Catholic nun and thenperished in Auschwitz.Our birthday celebration will continuewith a lavish Kiddush Lunch on Saturday,February 8. This will be a particularly festiveShabbat. Kaskeset, the Jewish a cappellagroup from SUNY Binghamton, will join us fora musical Shabbaton to celebrate ShabbatShirah (Sabbath of Song). On that Shabbat,we will read parashat Beshalach, whichincludes “Song at the Sea,” that was sung bythe Children of Israel after they successfullycrossed the Red Sea on their way out ofEgypt.With daylight lasting a little longer eachday, there will be more learning opportunitiesand celebrations to enjoy at Or Zarua.As we enter 2020, we hope for clearvision into the future. We are all founders ofOr Zarua’s future. May we continue to be alight in our own community and beyond.With best wishes for a wonderful 2020!B’Shalom!Purim Begins Monday Night, March 9!Join us for Ma'ariv and the reading of theMegillah at 7:40 PM followed by our Musicaland Humorous Spiel.

While the designersdid imagine displays of art on the wallsphoto exhibit of black and white photos byOZ congregant Zion Ozeri of Jews aroundthe world) the Social Hall was primarily seenas a simple, unadorned, functional room.Then, in 2004, the seed was plantedthat blossomed into the 2005 exhibition,Our Precious Legacies, and the SocialHall—later redubbed the OZ Gallery—wastransformed. How this change took placewill soon be commemorated in a newvolume being prepared by the OZ Gallerycommittee under the direction of theCommittee’s luminous chair and curatorBobbi Coller and art director, artist andOZ Congregant Caroline Golden. Thisanniversary catalogue will feature highlightsof past exhibits and reminiscences bycontributors and Gallery Committeemembers. It is meant to be a celebration ofthe Gallery’s place in our synagogue’s past,present and future. It is also hoped it willbe treasured as a keepsake honoring theOZ Gallery, itself a “precious legacy”, as wecelebrate Or Zarua’s anniversary.–Gerry Solomon59:00 am Shabbat Services beginKaskeset presents a Sermon in Song.12:00 pm Kiddush1:00 pm Kaskeset Post-Kiddush Concert6:15 pm Musical Havdalah and ProgramDinner: 18 per adult, 10 per child; 36maximum per household.Register at: orzarua.shulcloud.com/form/Havdalah-with-Kaskeset by TuesdayFebruary 4.
