ABOUT LIFE OF HESED “FAINA”

Ust-Kamenogorsk 11.12.2006

About Hesed "Faina" the publication were and in the bulletins of the Jewish community of Kazakhstan "Davar" and on a site www.mitsva.kz. And more than once! For today in Hesed daily such necessary and interesting work proceeds. It is the help to the old men and patient - home care, hot meal in Hesed and with delivery to the house, food and economic sets, "the winter relief". The medical program helps the clients in purchase of medicines, which nowadays are so expensive. Do not remain without attention and children: for them also there are children's packages, summer rest with interesting cultural cognitive programis provided.

Library works perfectly, its curator Helena Kuklina at the first opportunity gets the books. Therefore to rich enough and versatile book fund of library the latest works of the favorite authors are regularly added: Ludmila Ulitskaya, Dina Rubina, from a genre of poetry Sasha Cherniy etc., satire and humor - to volumes of Igor Guberman has joined V. Shenderovitch, the books about the figures of culture and art - about Elina Bystritskaya. The readers already have familiarized on a Literary drawing room with such new products of Ulitskaya as: "People of our king" both completely unusual and difficult, but not less interesting " Daniel Stein - interpreter ". We can brag that we have practically complete collected works of Ulitskaya and Rubina.

The holidays are spent in a community interestingly, where at concerts with pleasure meet art issues in performanceof children and youth and not only.

The cultural aspect is one of the important making life of Hesed and consequently here so important is attention of the director of Hesed Vladimir Lebedev. In the summer on local TV the transfer - "We are together" - about the Jewish national-cultural centre passed, in which Vladimir in detail told about a history and Traditions. There were shown the appropriate attributes, performance of vocal group "Zoar", interview to the members of a community which spoke about wise interethnic policy in Republic of Kazakhstan.

And in connection with such significant event, as laying of a stone on a place of future synagogue, opening of the temporary case, the reception of Scroll of Torah, given to a community by Alexandr Mashkevitch, in life of a community has appeared new and hitherto familiar only by hearsay: Rabbi and Rebetsn Igal and Sarah Royzman. Prays are duly - minyan, man in talits, tfilin, sidur etc. Alongside with execution of other ceremonies, in synagogue on Sundays "Female club" works. That is communication, Hebrew, Jewish songs, prays and also questions of a role of the woman in the Jewish family. And though to us to the people, evolved and brought up in XX century, in the Soviet time, it is so difficult to reform, but we try to join sources. You see this is our, from what we so many years were seized.

We wish prosperity, and main peace on an earth of our ancestors, on our historical Motherland - state Israel!
