Dear Friends,

Many of you might have heard that we are in the planning stages of starting a Brooklyn Afsi Chapter.  We started with a Telephone Conference Call December 3rd. Please read about it https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_pGHIdlT7Nbv5pTFURUI3-Q1q1OBlBgvAfqzgK6Pjms/edit?usp=sharing

You are invited to an AFSI Brooklyn Chanuka party..  Please let me know if you plan on coming.  Since there are many conflicting Chanuka  events we dont expect all of you to come. But if you do, I hope my house is big enough.  If everyone shows we'll deal with it iyh. 

It will be fleishik. Adults only.  So far I plan on making Latkes, Probably won't be enough for everyone so someone else can bring latkes as well. Binyamin Magden offered to bring a deli roll and the Helmus' a meat Lasagne.  Please note which hashgacha of the meat in case someone needs to know. We have some Chabadniks coming.   Please let us know what you can bring.  If home made please make sure it meets high end Kashrus standards.  Self clean oven before if necessary if it was dairy etc.  Use disposable when you can etc.  Everyone on the list above is Shomer Shabbat and keeps Kosher as far as I know. If you are not, and wish to come and contribute please bring closed pareve packaged food or goods with Kosher symbol.  (like cookies, nuts, or drinks, fruit etc.) Also if you don't want to patchka, you can bring packaged goods etc.

Also be aware that I have a dog Chloe.  Let me know if you are terrified or allergic. She is very sweet :)

 Everyone should contribute something since we are not asking for money to cover costs. Let me know via email or text so that we coordinate. 

As far as program. 

  • We will once again talk a few minutes about AFSI. Everyone will introduce themselves: Try to read the google link above re: telephone conference to update you about AFSI. Helen Freedman joined us and it was a very informational and worthwhile meeting. 
  • We will try to get everyone"s contact info (tel, email etc). If you want to volunteer for this job let me know.
  • I hope that Lorrie Fein will speak about her recent trip with AFSI. Hopefully she will be able to make it.
  • Raanan Isseroff will be speaking about the Lubavitcher Rebbe insights re: the Land of Israel and Raanan has done some research as per the Marienbad Conference of Moetzet Gedolei Hatorah re: Jewish State in 1937 which the Rebbe said to publicize.  If you want to know about this conference you can google "Shemittahrediscovered. marienbad" 
  • Raanan Isseroff also spoke at an AFSI protest in December 2011 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rG8i_2f6SIA&safe=active
  • Shmuel Koenig has been calling up members of the Moetzet Gedolei Hatorah and Agudah Rabbanim here in America and mentioning the Marienbad conference. He will give a short report of the responses he has been getting. We  will try to have a copy of the Marienbad resolutions of 1937 at the meeting. If not you can click on the links in the Marienbad folder in the knessiah-gedolah link above.
We will be handing out Women In Green Sovereignty Newspaper.

Please RSVP. Looking forward to seeing you. Robin

Please bring a camera/video so we can post pictures/video. If you want to volunteer to take pictures let me know. If you want to bring a friend let me know.
