MESSAGE FROM THE RABBI
 

Dear Friends,

When our patriarch Jacob worked for his father-in-law Laban, Laban compensated him with sheep. Jacob applied a unique breeding technique that caused his sheep to give birth to lambs with specific shades and splotches. Each time Laban changed Jacob’s compensation to a different style of sheep, Jacob managed to create sheep with that exact design.

Kabbalah teaches that Jacob’s work to create sheep of specific styles accomplished the same spiritual feats as we do today with the mitzvah of tefillin. Since the commandment of tefillin was not yet given to Jacob and his family, all that mattered at that point in time was the spirituality of the matter, not the physical fulfillment of G-d’s commandment.

But today, after the Torah was given to the Jewish people at Mt. Sinai—along with the ability to fuse the physical world and the spiritual inner workings of the universe—every time we do a mitzvah we make the world a holier place. With each mitzvah, we reveal just a bit more G-dliness in the world, with the ultimate goal of the complete revelation, with the coming of Moshiach. May it be speedily in our times!

Shabbat shalom.

 
 SHABBOS NEWS & UPCOMING EVENTS
We ARE Open for Services this Week - Soup & Challah info included

Large Group Visiting NEXT Shabbos…

Next Shabbos, November 20, we will be hosting a large group of approximately 100 people, including children, from Los Angeles as they are visiting for a Shabbaton. We warmly welcome guests. We have clearly informed them that our policy is that they should wear masks while in the sanctuary. This is something that they are not necessarily used to, so we may see lackluster adherence. Rabbi Eilfort and those he specifically asks to help him will remind them. We are recommending to everyone who may have compromised health, or who may not be fully vaccinated, and/or who may be at acute risk for covid to keep the above in mind and to take the necessary precautions.
We sincerely thank everyone for their understanding and support as we do our best during this health crisis to maintain our welcoming disposition, which is one of our most important attributes as a Chabad center, even as we do everything possible to maintain a safe atmosphere for all who attend.  

Kiddush Sponsor(s)

This week’s Kiddush is being sponsored by the Rack Family in loving memory of Joseph Armand Rack.

Sponsor a Kiddush – Sponsors Needed

We have resumed the weekly Kiddush and it is as beautiful as ever, Baruch Hashem! A huge thank you to our dedicated Kiddush Committee (including but not limited to): Naomi Alter, Sheila Lebovitz, Channah Hale, Kayla Perez, and the Rebbetzin.

Our weekly, communal lunch is a chance to enjoy our gorgeous Shabbos atmosphere, together with our wonderful community, in the beautiful surroundings of our breezeway and patios.

We thank our generous sponsors, without whom, none of this would be possible!

We always need additional sponsors.  If you have a birthday, anniversary, Yarzeit, or some other occasion you want to beautifully commemorate while benefiting the entire community please consider Kiddush sponsorship (half sponsorships also available). We also hope that everyone will be supportive and understand that multiple sponsors benefits the shul and doesn’t, in any way detract, from your occasion.

If you are interested please respond to this message or call the shul, 760-943-8891, and you will be put in touch with the appropriate party to make your occasion happen. Please see below for a list of the upcoming Kiddush Sponsors.

JLI Course - (Mondays)  Outsmarting Antisemitism

To sign up: https://www.myjli.com ​

Lesson Details
Lesson 3
The Promised Land
Today, hatred of Jews commonly manifests itself as antagonism toward the Jewish State. This class distinguishes all-out antisemitism from some more nuanced sub-strains. It also examines the state of Israel education and the very nature of Jewish nationhood.

Lesson 4
Change of Heart
Psychology, neuroscience, and recent history show us that neither friend nor foe should ever be taken for granted. With a bit of subtlety and conviction, and always with trust in G-d, we find that the dark days of the past are no cause for pessimism ahead.

Chanukah is Coming!

We will be mailing out a Chanukah brochure, which includes our complete schedule for this joyous light-giving holiday! Keep your eyes on your mailbox.
Also, we will be joining with the other Chabad communities throughout the County for a huge celebration and concert! See flyer below.

 

The Foundation Project - Donations

 We are raising funds that will be used towards completing our basement. This project will include a TEEN LOUNGE, CLASSROOMS, a PLAYGROUND, OFFICES, STORAGE SPACE, BATHROOMS, and more. Call Rabbi to inquire about available dedications. The money we raise also goes towards scholarships for Hebrew School students, our Challah and Chicken Soup program, and all of our ongoing expenses.

To donate securely online follow this link: www.ChabadatLaCosta.com/donate

Covid Protocols - We continue to pursue best practices. 

Masks should be worn by everyone Inside the Shul. We are asking everyone’s cooperation and sensitivity to the concerns of others in this matter. Those who are uncomfortable are welcome and encouraged to enjoy services in the Breezeway. 

No Masks Required in the Breezeway or During Meals

Frequent Handwashing/Sanitizing, especially before visiting the buffet

Social Distancing is to Maintained

PLEASE DO NOT COME IF YOU ARE FEELING SICK OR HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO SOMEONE WITH COVID!

Security Protocols

Everyone is Subject to Search

No Firearms (We have a well-defined security plan in effect and any unauthorized firearms could create confusion and actually reduce security).

Backpacks Prohibited

All Bags Subject to Search

Soup and Challah

We are seeking additional volunteers to help deliver Soup and Challah. If you can help with this beautiful Mitzvah please respond to this message. Thank you and G-d bless!

We wanted to extend a very special thank you to Carrie Rossenfeld for her help every week!

We will still be offering Soup and Challah to those who request it. We will not be delivering it if no request was made. Often times we will need people to pick it up themselves from shul, depending on the volunteer drivers’ status. Our focus is now to have people join us at shul so we can enjoy Kiddush TOGETHER!

Our A Team is busy preparing Challahs for the community as this is being written (and THANK YOU to our amazing donors for making that happen!). However, we are facing a big challenge as we need angels to deliver the fruit of our ovens to our hungry constituents. If you are ready, willing, and able to assist please respond to this message or contact the Rebbetzin to volunteer ASAP. G-d bless you!

Soup and Challah this week. Those who live near Chabad at La Costa are welcome to let us know if you want some delicious Challah and/or Chicken Soup delivered to you. There will be Challah and Soup. If you can help with deliveries, reach out to Kayla or Nechama.

Please note that all food is prepared and delivered using recommended safeguards.

Sponsors Appreciated (And Needed)

These are extraordinary times many people are reaching out for help and, Baruch Hashem / thank G-d, we are HERE to help! ‘We’ means YOU and US, TOGETHER. It is an amazing partnership that we have!

A very special thank you goes out to our “Super Sponsor” Channah Hale who has continuously stepped forward helping us to maintain this service!

We also wish to thank Clive Walden for sponsoring the Soup and Challah! 

We are extremely grateful to those who have reached out to help fund us, enabling us to serve others. Thank you to our amazing volunteer drivers - you can volunteer to deliver Soup and Challah!

Note About Sponsorships

You may have noticed that we seek multiple sponsors for the Challah, Soup, and Torah classes. We do this because we need to find ways to cover our budgetary shortfall that has been caused by the coronavirus. The donations coming to the shul have been dramatically reduced. We greatly appreciate those of you who are still supporting us! G-d bless you! We greatly appreciate your understanding as we seek ways of propping up the income necessary to keep things afloat. Your ideas about additional income streams are likewise greatly appreciated!

Public Service Announcement – Let’s Work TOGETHER to Maintain OUR Shul

We have a beautiful shul. Everyone agrees. It is not easy to maintain everything, but we work hard to keep things clean and in good working order. We need your help.

Our sanctuary is graced with gorgeous, custom made, stained glass windows. These windows MUST be kept in pristine condition. Please respect the windows by only looking and never touching them. G-d forbid, they can easily be scratched if we are not careful. Also, please do not put ANY objects (cups, books, tissues etc.) on the window sills as it detracts from the windows.

Our custom-built furniture from Israel is as precious as it looks. People have put down cups (full and empty) on the partitions and the shelves. This is inappropriate. Children cannot sit on or climb on the furnishings – other than sitting in the pews as they were designed to be used. No exceptions.

Please put away your own Talis and prayer books, and replace the book racks when done using them. Please throw away your own garbage.

If we can all work together we will keep our shul beautiful!

THANK YOU for your understanding and cooperation.

RABBI'S WEEKLY ARTICLE
Rabbi's Letter | Thought for the Week | Haftarah 

Living with the Times -  Parshat Va’Yetzei – And He Left

A Giant’s Presence
by Rabbi Yeruchem Eilfort

 

This week we continue with the narrative involving our righteous father Yaakov / Jacob. The portion begins, “And Yaakov left Be’er Sheva and he went to Charan.” Be’er Sheva was where Yaakov grew up in the home of his holy parents Yitzchak (Isaac) and Rivka (Rebecca). Yaakov was compelled to flee his parents’ home and head to his Uncle Lavan’s who lived in Charan due to the homicidal rage of Eisav, Yaakov’s evil twin, who wanted to murder him for taking the blessing that he desired.

Yaakov did not head straight to his uncle’s, however. The commentaries note that he made a ‘brief’ fourteen-year detour in the house of Torah study led by Shem and Ever, the son and grandson of Noah who were prophets. After that enriching experience Yaakov was on his way, but stopped to rest at the site of the future Holy Temple, on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem. It was there that he had his famous dream of angels ascending and descending a ladder that led to heaven. The Almighty appeared to Yaakov and reassured him that he would be greatly blessed and that his progeny would spread forth in all directions. 

We find that before going to sleep Yaakov arranged stones around his head, presumably for protection. The Rabbis point out that this seems strange, for if Yaakov felt he needed protection why not arrange rocks around his entire body? If he had faith that G-d would guard him why did he need any rocks at all? The Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, answers that Yaakov had complete trust that the Almighty would protect him. The purpose of the rocks arranged around his head was to symbolically protect that which he had learned from the potential influences he was sure to encounter when he arrived in Charan, a place known for its evil ways. 

Tradition tells us that Yaakov was the “choicest of the Patriarchs.” He successfully combined the best of his grandfather Avraham and father Yitzchak. Avraham excelled at acts of loving-kindness and Yitzchak excelled at self-restraint and self-perfection. Yaakov managed to fuse the two approaches. It was only Yaakov who managed to father exclusively righteous children. From this we see that he did something exceedingly well to the extent that it positively impacted all of his children. 

We now can go back and understand an anomaly in the opening sentence. The portion starts by telling us where Yaakov left, something we already knew. Why didn’t it just say, “And Yaakov went to Charan?” Rashi, the great classical commentator, explains a specific lesson from the seemingly extra phrase. When Yaakov, great Tzaddik (righteous man) that he was, departed Be’er Sheva it made an impact. Likewise, when he arrived in Charan it made an impact. That is what happens when a saintly person leaves a place and arrives somewhere else; it makes an impact. The influence of the holy is profound and enduring. 

The question now becomes quite pointed and that is; “Do you make a positive impact when you depart and/or arrive somewhere?” We are told to look to the actions of the Patriarchs and to remember that they served as trailblazers for us. In other words, if Yaakov could do it so can we; indeed, so must we. 

Let us therefore resolve to be a positive influence wherever we may go. It could be our influence that will ultimately transform a Charan into a Be’er Sheva!

Wishing everyone a happy and HEALTHY Shabbos! 

Haftarah of Shabbat Parshat Va’Yetzei 

Hosea 11:7-12:14.
This week's haftorah mentions Jacob's flight from home to the "field of Aram," an episode that is recounted in this week's Torah reading.
The haftorah begins with the prophet Hosea's rebuke of the Jewish people for forsaking G d. Nevertheless, Hosea assures the people that G d will not abandon them: "How can I give you, Ephraim, and deliver you [to the hands of the nations]? . . . I will not act with My fierce anger; I will not return to destroy Ephraim."
The prophet discusses the misdeeds of the Northern Kingdom of Israel, and the future degeneration of the Kingdom of Judea. He contrasts their behavior to that of their forefather Jacob who was faithful to G d and prevailed against enemies, both human and angelic. 
The haftorah also makes mention of the ingathering of the exiles which will occur during the Final Redemption: "They shall hasten like a bird from Egypt and like a dove from the land of Assyria; and I will place them in their houses, says the Lord."

A COMMUNITY FOR YOU AND ME
Coastal Chabads are here for YOU

Belonging to a Jewish Community is not only gratifying and fulfilling it is also extremely important, for within the community one finds a place to connect with G-d and one’s soul, a place of learning and spiritual enrichment, a great source of friends, a place to bestow one’s Jewish legacy upon his or her child/ren, and so much more. Check out   www.ChabadatLaCosta.com to learn more. 

The beauty of OUR Jewish Community is that we offer so many different options that everyone is sure to find something enriching and meaningful. Below please find a partial list of some of our current offerings. If you have never come by before pick an item or two and try it out. If you have already tried an item or two find another one that sounds interesting and give it a whirl. “Connection” – that is the name of the game and that is precisely what you will find here!

Need a Minyan?

If you need a Minyan to say Kaddish please give the office at least a few days’ notice. We are happy to provide this important service, but it takes time to arrange enough participants to assure the quorum is present. Please email  [email protected] your request.

Shabbat Services with Meaning & Joy

Every Saturday we get together to celebrate the holy Shabbat in song and prayer. Our services are both traditional and user-friendly, as we fully recognize that not everyone has experience Davening (praying) in a traditional setting. What those who have joined have found is that the atmosphere in our synagogue is conducive to meaningful meditation. A knowledge of Hebrew is not necessary to participate. In fact, the only thing that is needed is the desire to learn and to connect to the Almighty. It is an enriching experience not to be missed! Shabbat services begin at 10am and conclude at approximately 12:30pm and are followed by a wonderful community lunch. There is no cost to attend and reservations are not needed.

Membership

NOW is the time to join the family! Membership includes High Holiday seats and discounts on other programs and activities. However, the main reason to join is to demonstrate your commitment to the future of Judaism in our area and to our community.

If you have already filled out and returned your Membership form please accept this message as our sincere thank you!

We urge you to pick the level of Membership and the financial commitment you feel comfortable with, and to fill out the form that you will find by following this link: www.ChabadatLaCosta.com/membership. We thank all of our amazing donors!

Create Your Jewish Legacy Plan for the Future - Now

We have been blessed with life! Yet, we know that no one lives forever. This begs the question, “What will your legacy be?” Most of us have children, and they certainly should figure prominently into our plans. But our children are only a part of what we leave behind. Just as we endeavor to give Tzedakah generously, so as to selflessly make the world a better place while we are alive, so too we need to make sure that we leave a percentage of our estates for the benefit of others. Judaism tells us that it is incumbent upon us to leave the world better than when we found it. We do this by giving Tzedakah.

We can help.

Chabad has partnered with the Jewish Community Foundation in the creation of our Legacy Circle "Generation to Generation - Ensuring a Jewish Tomorrow, Today". Many people do not prepare appropriately for the inevitable. They do not leave a will, or even if they do it is not consistent with Jewish Law. If one wants his body to be handled with the respect and care mandated by Jewish Law or if one wants the funeral service conducted according to Jewish Law, it must be arranged in advance. Don’t leave these critical details to luck!

Contact Rabbi Eilfort for a private appointment so these important matters can be handled how you want.

Send a personal email to  [email protected] to schedule an appointment today.

The donation is $180 for a leaf on the Tree of Life.

Those who wish to participate should send an email to  [email protected], or call Rabbi Eilfort at 760-943-8891.

We are excited to designate a section of our Tree of Life to our Legacy Circle. Watch the Tree and see article above.

Hebrew School & C-Kids

Hebrew School Theme this Week: Foundations

Give your children the Jewish education that they deserve! Our Sunday Hebrew School offers lots of hands-on activities and positive reinforcement. Students learn Hebrew language skills, Jewish living and observance, Jewish history, and so much more! We include arts & crafts, field trips, and holiday programming to make their experience even more enjoyable. Your child will have fun as he or she gains an appreciation for the ‘why’s and ‘how’s of Judaism. Morah Chaya has worked diligently to create an amazing curriculum that will educate and inspire our students. Our teachers will always offer lots of positive reinforcement to the students so that they will not only learn, but they will ENJOY the EXPERIENCE! Please get back to us and let your friends know.  Our students want to be here!

Please contact our Hebrew School Director, Morah Chaya Eilfort for info at [email protected].

Shul Etiquette

Those who join us regularly for Shabbat services will agree that we have something very special going. The family-friendly atmosphere is unique and most inviting. We welcome everyone as though he/she is a long time member of the family.

At the same time it is important to remember that we are a synagogue. Our sanctuary is meant to be a place where it is conducive to finding inner peace and tranquility. That is why the Rabbis have many laws concerning the decorum of a shul.

It is appropriate to dress modestly and to dress somewhat formally in shul. Men should wear button down shirts, slacks (no jeans or shorts), with jackets and even ties when possible. Of course the head is to be kept covered at all times. Women should wear skirts that go past the knees and blouses with high neck lines and sleeves that cover the elbows. Married women should wear hats and the like.

Children must be supervised at all times by the parents except during Junior Congregation (11:30am). While we want the children to have a great time together it is also important that they do not become so wild and/or boisterous that they disturb those of us who are participating in the services.

We must remember that we should walk to shul and never park in the parking lot if there already eight cars parked. Finally, and we fully realize this goes against Jewish DNA, it is appropriate to come to shul ON TIME. While we know everyone is vying to be counted as the 10th, we are equally sure Hashem will give extra credit to those who come ON TIME at 10am (not to be confused with 11:30). We look forward to seeing you here!

Cell Phones & Chatting During Services

Needless to say the sanctuary on Shabbat or holidays is a place that must be conducive to reflective prayers and serenity. To help keep it this way, please refrain from engaging in any conversations during services and please do not bring in your cell phone. Thank you for your cooperation.

Critical Maintenance Issue – Your Cooperation Needed

PLEASE NOTE: The ONLY thing that may be flushed is toilet paper – NO EXCEPTIONS. This means tissue, baby wipes, paper towels, or any other product may NEVER be flushed, but instead must be disposed of in the provided trash receptacles.

THANK YOU for your cooperation!

Tzedakah news – 

Ordinarily, individuals who elect to take the standard deduction cannot claim a deduction for their charitable contributions. The law now permits these individuals to claim a limited deduction on their 2021 federal income tax returns for cash contributions made to certain qualifying charitable organizations. Nearly nine in 10 taxpayers now take the standard deduction and could potentially qualify to claim a limited deduction for cash contributions.

These individuals, including married individuals filing separate returns, can claim a deduction of up to $300 for cash contributions made to qualifying charities during 2021. The maximum deduction is increased to $600 for married individuals filing joint returns.

Another tax tip: Donate a car, the amount the vehicle is sold for (if your non profit chooses to sell it) can also potentially lower your taxable income.

I am a small Jewish farmer running my business in La Costa  called Pammy's Pony Parties and Petting Zoo. I arrive with my animals at little children's birthday parties, senior homes,  graduation parties, and resorts in the area, to share my love of animals. I also do animal therapy with children and adults. Fantastic!! Call me to make an appointment or set up a birthday party.
