Dear Friends,
This year with Hanukkah and Christmas overlapping, once again it raises the “December
Dilemma,” i.e. how should one deal with being non-
Christian during a high-time of Christian religious enthusiasm? I know that some parents are very concerned that their children should not be made to feel, in any way, like outsiders in their schools when everyone is preparing to celebrate this important
Christian occasion.
You may be surprised to know but I think this so called “dilemma” is, in the long run, actually a positive. I believe that it is not only good for our children to know that they are different religiously, but it is also good for them as human beings to realize that they need not try be like everyone around them. I strongly believe that outsiders ultimate grow and become stronger on the inside; that it can build character, independence of thought, and the strength to stand up for what one believes in. Such people will not only become deeply respected by others but they will, in time, become the very people capable of making positive change in our world.
The way to respond to this so-called “December Dilemma” is not by lobbying to curtail or minimize Christian observance in the schools by Christians, nor by turning our own Hanukah holiday into a “Jewish Christmas” but, rather, by teaching our children how proud they should be that they belong to a dedicated minority who throughout history have stood up for principles, sacred values, and were always, if need be, prepared to go it alone.
Christians observing their religious holiday doesn’t make me feel the least bit insecure about myself nor about my status as an American. I was raised to respect the religious tradition of others but knowing that there is no need to seek to imitate their ways.
“Be proud of who you are” was the lesson I was taught. “Keep your self-
respect.” Know, without being chauvinistic about it, that it was our own religious heritage that has so greatly contributed to the values that today are universally embraced.
That was the real spirit of the Maccabees. They were religious non-
conformists while so many others around them sought to emulate the Greeks. Christians so admired the Maccabees they put the Books of Maccabees into their Bible (the Apocrypha) although those books are not in our own Hebrew Bible. Early Christians realize that had it not been for the Maccabees, who kept their independence of spirit and their own religious traditions, Christianity would never have come into existence. Be proud and have a very happy Hanukah.
With affection,

Dear Friends,
After the High Holydays are over,
I feel as if I have so many people
to thank. Here is a loud thank
you to all of you. Being the
Cantor, I owe a special debt of
gratitude to our choir. Their
work leading up to the Holydays was exemplary.
I decided to sing a very eclectic selection of music
this year. It featured several modern composers
along with the traditional arrangements that some
of you remember. They put forth their best efforts
and added much beauty to our services. If you
didn’t hear them, it’s OK. I forgot to turn on their
microphones on Rosh Hashanah. One more thing
to put on the High Holyday checklist.
As much as I enjoy the choir, I was left feeling like
something was missing. It goes without saying
that these excellent volunteers, all members of
COS, gave their best effort. What we need,
however, is a coloratura soprano. For you non-
Italian speakers, those are the women who sing the
highest parts with the biggest sound. If you or any
member of your family happens to fit into that
category, please let me know so I can start begging
you or them now for next year. It’s interesting the
way our choir worked out. We had seven men in
the choir this year. It’s the greatest number I can
remember. In the past, we always had one great
soprano who belted it out. Now, through a9rition,
there are no more.
Thanks to all of you who offered kind words about
the choir. Please know that I appreciate it a great
deal. As you know, the choir does add some time
on to an already lengthy service. That is why they
only sing during one portion of the service on
Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur day. On Kol
All of the Holidays definitely
consumed the month of October.
I hope you all found the High
Holiday services to be as
inspirational and meaningful as I
did. Although Hurricane
Mathew tried to disrupt the
beginning of the holidays, the amazing weather at
the end really enabled us to enjoy the Sukkah and
all of the decorations our Religious School students
made and put up in the Sukkah.
So now that we have been rejuvenated by all of the
holiday celebrations, it is time to return our focus
to the many things that your Board is working on
this year and for the future of Ohev Shalom. As I
mentioned in my Kol Nidre speech, one of the
more significant items we are working on this year
is the next Strategic Plan for Ohev Shalom. It is
this plan that will shape Ohev Shalom for the next
100 years. Also as I mentioned in my speech and
my previous bulletin article, we have just
completed the first phase of this initiative. This
consisted of the survey which many of you
responded to and the analysis of the resulting data.
The next step is working with our
Transformational Specialist from USCJ, Aimee
Close, and determine the six or so main themes
that have emerged from the survey responses and
other factors directly impacting Ohev Shalom.
Aimee will be here in early November giving your
Board a workshop on this next phase of the
Strategic Planning process. Then focus groups will
be established to concentrate on each of the themes
and come up with various approaches and options
to be considered. This is where you come in, as we

I’m always fascinated when congregants tell me
that they a9ended services at a different
synagogue in a different city. You might think
that it is not interesting, but I love hearing about
other Cantors and choirs. Please don’t hesitate to
share a great story. Now, I wonder what people
say about me when they are in a different city? I

From the Development VP As I am writing this, the 2016-2017 COS Directory
is about to go to press. Thanks to Carolyn Rosen-
blum and the entire commi9ee for the hard work
that went into making our directory a record fund
raising success. You as a congregant can build on
our success by looking first in the directory when
you need to select a product or service and sup-
porting the advertisers. These advertisers play an
important role in the financial stability of COS and
without them we would not be able to maintain
our many programs and stable dues structure.
Please check your personal directory listing for
accuracy. The information there comes from the
COS data base and so any updates should be re-
ported to our office.
Another way you can support COS when shop-
ping online is to go to our website,
www.ohevshalom.org and click on the Amazon
icon on the home page. Every Amazon purchase
you make from this link benefits COS at no added
cost to you!
Work is well underway planning the COS Gala to
be held February 28, 2017. Our honoree this year is
none other than Amy Geboff, our beloved reli-
gious school director for the past 21 years.
We know everyone will want to turn out for this
event to honor Amy and enjoy auction items, great
food, and lively entertainment. We are planning
an evening to help you reminisce about your own
summer camp days, so mark your calendars. If
you would like to help plan our event or in the
gathering of auction items, please contact Nina

RABBI DAVID KAY’S MESSAGE
Haveirim Y’karim –
Dear Friends –
The deadline for this
November/December 2016
Ohev Shalom bulletin fell
before the end of the 2016 World Series, so I can
only say, “Congratulations to the Major League
Baseball team from the Midwestern city beginning
with the le9er ‘C’.” And it also fell before Election
Day, so…well, enough said!
We’ve recently begun the cycle of re-reading the
Torah, and that means each Shabbat at this time of
year brings us the next installment in the saga of
the Matriarchs and Patriarchs. These familiar and
beloved stories are part of our national history as
well as our spiritual history. They tell us as much
about who we are – and who we strive to be – as
they do about what we believe.
One of the foundational concepts in Conservative
Judaism is a literary approach to our sacred text.
That’s really not a new idea, though – the Rabbinic
tradition has been doing it for over 2,000 years.
The Sages of the Talmud and the Midrash
explored the literary nuances in the Torah and the
rest of the Tanakh, unfolding myriad layers of
meaning. And, every day, we are finding new
relevance in those ancient stories and their
interpretations.
For the past six years, Janet Friedman has been
facilitating a monthly Shabbat study group called
“Women of the Tanakh.” Now, the topic is shifting
to “Bible Stories You Thought You Knew,” delving
into those familiar tales and finding the surprises
that are brought forth through the Rabbinic lens –
or just through a more careful reading of the plain
meaning of the text. The next sessions are
November 19 and December 10, right after
services. Just grab some lunch from the Kiddush
and join us in the Youth Lounge.
There’s also an unexpected advantage in a literary
approach to Jewish texts – it also lets you take a
Jewish approach to other literature and popular
culture. By applying some of the same techniques
used by our ancient Sages and modern scholars,
we can view books, films, and more through a
Jewish lens.
Starting Monday evening, November 28, at 7 p.m.
and running for four weeks, we’re going to take
that approach to one of the most beloved movies
of the past century. I’ll be facilitating a class called
“As You Wish: The Torah of The Princess Bride.”
Watch for more information coming soon.
L’shalom,
David Kay
COS Sisterhood
Our Paid- up Membership Brunch was a huge
success. There were over 60 women in a9endance.
Rabbi Kay gave a D’var Torah and the presenter
enlightened us on Ladino music and language. He
also spoke on finding his Jewish routes and his
now understanding of why his Grandma lit
candles in the basement on Friday evenings. The
commi9ee did an outstanding job.
Leagrams have been going out to members, college
students are receiving packages, snacks were
provided for the children during the High Holy
Days and Sisterhood covered Ohev’s Break Fast.

The Holidays are behind us. In
the Hebrew school world we
tend to complain when the
holidays are too early there
isn’t time to teach them, but
this year they were later, and
we had time to teach but we
still complained that it seems the holidays went on
forever! You just can’t win but it is clear that our
students and families did benefit by the timing as
we delved into the meaning and celebrations. A
huge Todah Rabbah to our staff, madrichim,
leaders and parents for supporting all of our
events, services and keeping up with the change in
schedules.
Life at COS beyond the holidays is full and
exciting. November and December brings us the
6th grade Shabbaton, USY Subregional Convention,
Kadima Convention, Family Cooking, Family
Shabbat Experience, Second Grade Family Siyum,
Third through Fifth Grade Jewish Book Month
family program, the USY Shabbaton, International
USY Convention in Dallas, and the teacher retreat.
This is in addition to our regular youth group
programs and Hebrew school.
This is the 3rd year of our High School program
DDD “Dinner, Daber and Dvar.” We have
changed the format a bit to meeting twice a month
rather than every week. The focus is “Ahavah/
Love Wins.” We learn to love each other when we
understand each other. To that end the teens have
been dialoging with residents of Village on the
Green and Teens from other Faith Traditions. It
has been an incredible experience to be part of and
watch unfold. The first interfaith dialog was held
at COS during Sukkot and the first dialog with the
seniors was in September. At both they shared

are looking for members who would like a chance
to help establish our future. The focus group
volunteers will meet several times over the next
few months to openly discuss their assigned
theme and develop several approaches they
would like considered. I, along with the Strategic
Planning Co-chairs, Steven Hornik and Jo Staffin,
will do our best to make sure that these meetings
will be lively, exciting to participate in, and
productive. If you would like to volunteer and
help develop the guide which will drive Ohev
Shalom’s future, please let me know. Email me at
[email protected] and once we have
established the specific themes, I will follow-up
with you so we can determine the best Focus
Group for you.
Just as a reminder, our next semi-annual
Congregational Meeting is on Sunday, November
20. While there are not any critical items that will
be requiring a vote at this particular meeting, it
will be a great opportunity to catch up on
everything that is currently going on at Ohev
Shalom.
As always, if anything should come up where you
find the need to contact me directly, please feel
free to send an email to [email protected] and
I will definitely get back with you as soon as I can.

Shalom,
We want to start off by thanking all who served as
ushers during the High Holy Days and special
thanks to Dean Faracchio who did an amazing job
scheduling the shifts. Very favorable comments
were received from many congregants, including
the clergy.
The Men’s Club has a wonderful year of activities
planned. We know that our membership of the
Men’s Club has very busy work lives and want to
spend as much time as they can with their
families. Accordingly, we will have fewer events
with a greater emphasis on family activities. For
example, The Federation of Jewish Men’s Clubs
(FJMC) is planning a father/son retreat at Camp
Shalom around the end of March. This is a great
opportunity to get to know your Men’s Club be9er
and to spend a great weekend with your son. (All
ages are welcomed). There will be both religious
and sporting activities planned. Promotional
materials will be distributed once the event date is
finalized. Last year’s retreat was a roaring success.
Another major event is the Man & Youth of the
Year. It is planned as a joint activity again with the
other local Men’s Clubs to be held this year on
11/20/16 at Temple Israel. You should have
received your invitation in the mail and they are
due back by 11/6/16. In your packet, you would
have received the RSVP for the event and a form
to assist you in placing an ad for our honorees;
Howard Kaplan and Lily Brenner. Please join us
on the 20th and consider placing an ad for Howard
and Lily. If you need any further information;
please contact Andy Rosen at [email protected].
We will hold a “Recess” (a casual gathering with
other congregants) at Mulligan’s in Altamonte
Springs (Publix shopping center on 434 & Wekiva
Springs Road) on 11/13/16 starting at 5:30 p.m.
Please contact Alan Zelt at [email protected] for
further information (a flyer has been mailed).
As you might suspect, it is time for the Super Bowl
Fund Raiser. The flyers are already out. Please
contact Richard SchwarT if you would like to
participate. The funds received from this activity
are earmarked for Amy Geboff and her Youth
Programs. We have been fortunate in years past to
raise considerable dollars for Amy and our kids. It
is a lot of fun and you might even win some
money. Richard can also answer any questions
you might have and he can be reached at
On Sunday, December 4th we are holding our
second Annual Winter Park Boat Ride. This was a
wonderful event two years ago when we filled
four boats and had dinner at Dexter’s following
the ride. There will be a special menu to order our
meals at Dexter’s. The cost of the ride is only
$12.00 and the dinner with the ride is $38.00 per
person. Come join us for the tour. Flyers have
already been mailed to your homes. For further
information, please contact Alan Zelt at

Well my friends, I am
going to give you a
preview of what to expect
in the line of entertainment
for the remaining months
of 2016 and the first six
months of 2017. As always, I ask you to mark
your calendars and when you receive your flyers
in the mail to put them on your refrigerators so
you donʹt forget. Also, for the record, all our
functions are on Sunday starting at 2 p.m. SHARP
and I want to point out that our day in January
falls on New Year’s Day which means the building
will be closed, so our first meeting of the new year
has been moved to January 7th. Of course I wish
everyone A VERY HAPPY AND HEALTHY NEW
YEAR. Now here comes the results of my hard
work finding all these fabulous entertainers for
your pleasure and enjoyment. Starting with
Sunday, November 6th, we had a three piece
combo that will keep you jumping with joy called
THE EASTSIDE GROUP. On December 4th, we
have an entirely different type of entertainment
featuring MR.& MRS. MIGUEL ABREAU and his
ROMANTIC MANDOLIN. They will play music
from all over the world. This is one show you
really can’t afford to miss. The first show of 2017
and back by popular request, we have engaged the
Faith & Jazz 19 piece band that packed the house
the last time they were here. AGAIN, PLEASE
NOTE THE DATE CHANGE TO JANUARY 7th,
2017. Now we swing into the 4th of February
where we have MARK SHAMI, who will spend an
hour and fifteen minutes in A MIND BOGGLING
Musical that will keep you from believing what
you see and hear. Please donʹt miss this, on March
4th we are inviting the entire community to come
to the party featuring two women DESIREE &
ALINDA, known as THE PARTY GIRLS, who will
create a real related party atmosphere where the
audience gets into the act. Come on out for a real
fun afternoon.
On April 1st (not an April fool’s joke) we have
Oklahoma coming to the Senior group that we will
enjoy. The May 6th program is a surprise and I am
not telling anyone. I ask that you trust my
judgment on this show and I promise you will not
believe it when you see it. All I can say is there will
be two people performing.
And of course as the saying goes ʺSAVE THE
BEST FOR LAST ʺ and so we have engaged Allen
Vachie, professional clarinetist together with three
other professional musicians plus a Vocalist to
keep us happy. Let me point out THAT I AM
STILL LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO REPLACE
ME AS PRESIDENT AND I PROMISE TO HELP
THE RIGHT PERSON. Remember all our
functions have refreshments and the price is
always the same.
Questions feel free to call me at 407-767-6763.

Once again, we will be showing the NFL Playoff
game on Sunday, January 22nd. This will be aired
by CBS at 3:05 p.m. and we will be showing it in
the Temple on the 92nd street Y screen. It will be the
AFC Championship game to determine which
team will represent the AFC in the Super Bowl. Of
course there will be pizza and beer for the
showing.
Each year, we usually go to a spring training
baseball game. This year we are trying something
different. We are going to a Solar Bears game on
Sunday January 29, 2017. If there is enough
interest, we will reserve a suite. This does not
interfere with the NFL playoff games since they
are the week before and the game time is 1:30
which will not interfere with Hebrew school. If
interested, please email Alan Zelt at
[email protected] and let him know how many
tickets you would need. The exact price ($30-$40)
will be set once we get a head count (the price will
depend on the number of a9endees).
The last event planned for early next year will be
held on February 5 which is our World Wide
Wrap/Super Bowl Brunch. This year’s WWW is a
tribute to Jay Stanek; Jay was a founder of the COS
Wrap. Rabbi Kay has been gracious enough to
volunteer to talk about Jay’s contributions to COS
and the community at the beginning of the Minyan
service. More information about the program will
be forthcoming.

their experiences and did a values auction to
trigger discussion on what is important to them
personally and shed light on who they are as
individuals. Our hope is that we come to realize
that we have more in common than differences,
that we can undo stereotypes about different
populations and come together for the be9erment
of our community. Gabe Grossman and I have
been staffing the program. The original plan was
to bring in teachers for the class sessions but what
we are seeing is that we are developing a group

Eric and I are very much looking forward to the
Ahavat Yisrael Trip to Israel June 12-22, 2017. Our
goal is to bring as many people together who want
to experience Israel as an Ohev community. We
are calling it a Family Trip as we want to include
everyone. The one comment we have been
hearing from people who don’t have children at
home or are empty nesters or can’t bring children
is “I am interested but it is a trip for children,” Our
answer is that it is a trip for everyone. Depending
on the participants age range we can alter the trip
as well as offer different tracks. If the idea to come
crossed your mind but had these concerns, please
contact us! The link to the website with all of the
information about the trip and to register is:

Whether you choose to come on the trip, are
thinking about the trip or just want to learn about
Israel, we are offering “Israel 101” on three
Sundays at our home. November 13: Our Right to
the Land, December 4: How Modern Israel Came

World. Please see emails and contact the office
for specific details. We would love for you to
come learn and share our love Israel.
One final sentiment. December brings Chanukah
and this year the first candle is Saturday night
December 24. Some would say how great that it
comes at the same time as Christmas and others
would say when it comes at the same time it
becomes the Jewish Christmas. The same
statement I started this article with is that the
Jewish Holidays never seem to be at the right
time. What is important to remember is that
Chanukah is not the Jewish Christmas. There is
no correlation. Ironically it is the fight against
assimilation and to retain our identity as Jews. If
it took place at another time of year we probably
would not be celebrating it to the extent that we
do. Help your children put into perspective
what the holiday is about and be proud of the
many celebrations we have. If you give gifts,
don’t make that the focus. Include the miTvah of
helping others, family time and appreciating
what we have as your celebration of Chanukah.
There are so many wonderful programs and
events taking place. Please be sure to read the
Week At a Glance, Weekly Youth and Family
Update on Thursdays, Facebook and yes, my

Dear Rabbi –
Well, it’s that time of year again…but my “December
Dilemma” is a li.le different. I actually kind of like the
lights and music and decorations. What I don’t like is
when well-meaning friends ask me about “the Jewish
view of Jesus” – as if I need to explain what we believe
(or don’t). Help!
--Need a Good Answer
Dear NAGA –
“Well-meaning” is the key word. Not-so-well-
meaning people may use that question to create
an opportunity to proselytize or criticize. But as
long as they’re well-meaning – and especially
when they’re friends – there’s a succinct answer:
there really isn’t any “Jewish view of Jesus.”
Judaism has no more need to respond to the
Christian belief in Jesus than Christianity has to
respond to the Muslim belief in Muhammed.
Christianity emerges out of the crucible of 1st
century CE Judea that also gave rise to Rabbinic
Judaism. Within two centuries, Christianity had
diverged into a separate religion, distinctly
different from the various streams of Judaism.
The distinguishing characteristic of Christianity
was the figure of Jesus – a figure unique to that
group, with no prominence in the rest of the
Jewish world at that time or since.
Especially in countries where Christianity is the
predominant religion – including here in the
United States – this can be understandably
difficult for Christians to process. All of us tend
to understand the world from our own
perspective and experience. Cultural differences
are real, and religion is a significant and
formative element of culture.
Interfaith dialogue all too often begins and ends
with carefully identifying common ground. Dr.
Mary Boys points out that if we are to truly
understand one another, we need to be able to
talk about our differences with the same love and
respect with which we talk about our similarities.
The best conversations are honest about what we
don’t know or understand about one another,
and are open to learning in a non-judgmental
way.
