I'ACK «• IM.AINDKAI.Kll - FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 25,1963 T PSfollowing the^| Church Synagogue expands program The McHenry County Jewish Congregation has added two new activities to its program - an adult education group and a youth group. In addition, the Sunday School is planning a Chanukah observance. This expanded programming reflects the congregation's continuing desire to benefit its members and the community. The youth group, affiliated with B*nai B'rith, is for boys and girls 12 through 17. Named MEIR (in honor of Golda Meir), its purpose is to encourage participation in religious community and social activities. Advisors to the group are Mickey and Jerry Mandel, Fox Lake. Hebrew class is the first ac­ tivity of the adult education program. Approximately 15 adults are attending a series of sessions with Rabbi Morris Greenfield, intending to im­ prove their speaking and reading skills. A Chanukah assembly and party is planned by the Sunday School youth for Sunday, Dec. 4, 10-12 at the Synagogue. Jews worldwide celebrate Chanukah as the time when they recap­ tured the Temple in Jerusalem from the Syrians and Greeks around the end of the second century. Students will entertain with plays and songs about Chanukah. A special presen­ tation by representatives of the Lubavich community is plan­ ned. They will, as they did last year, charm the audience with song and dance. A gift exchange and refreshments will conclude the event. The public is invited to par­ ticipate in all activities.

Great Books-Charismatic meetings at St. Peter's •c Can Great Books meeting be combined with Charismatic Prayer meeting? Father James Lyons, who for over 20 years has studied the Great Books with Dr. Mortimer J. Adler, says "yes they can."The Great Books- Charismatic meetings will begin Wednesday, Nov. 30, at 7:30 p.m. in St. Peter's Church in Volo. The Great Book to be studied is the greatest of all the Great Books-the Holy Bible. Using the remarkable techniques developed in the Great Books program, the Bible will be read and discussed. Furthermore, -and Father Lyons feels this is of great importance, the Bible will be used as a rich source for communicating with God during the prayer meeting. > Father Lyons, pastor of St. Peter's Church in Volo soys, "It is very difficult to study Theology without praying, and it is equaly difficult to pray without a knowledge of Theology." Some of the relevant, per tinent, and perennial questions to be explored will be, "What is God's plan for me?" "How does God speak to me?" "How can I speak to God?""How can I conquer stress and fear?" "What are the true values in life?" "How can I develop a personal friendship with God and with others?" People of all faiths are invited to attend this series of meetings, and experience the joyfiri ad­ venture of a continual growth of life in the Holy Spirit of (Sod.
