Bat Mitzvah
Twins Her Rite
Risa Tisdale, daughter of
Yolanda and David Tisdale,
will twin her bat mitzvah
tonight at Temple Israel with
Maya Lekhtman of the Soviet
Union.
Maya is the daughter of
Solomon and Tzivia
Lekhtman, of Beltsy. The
family has been seeking to
emigrate from Russia since
their first refusal in 1973.
Lekhtman is an electrician.
He applied for immigration to
Israel with his parents, and
all were denied permission
because of his army service.
The Lekhtmans were mar-
ried in 1973, and in 1974,
both families again applied
for exit visas. The younger
Lekhtmans were refused. The
parents left for Israel, and are
now residents of Kiryat Yam.
Maya was born just a month
after her grandparents left for
Israel. Meanwhile, her father
has lost his job and he has
been unemployed since mak-
ing application.
Attempts have been made
to contact the Lekhtmans,
but all have been
unsuccessful.
In addition to twinning her
bat mitzvah, Risa will be the
first Temple Israel student to
have her bat mitzvah under
the temple's participation in
Mazon, the Jewish response
to hunger.
Under the Mazon program,
three percent of the money
spetn for Risa's bat mitzvah
will go to fight hunger local-
ly, nationally and around the
world.
Risa, who is a student at
Hillel Day School as well as
in the Temple Israel Religious
School, for many years was a
member of the Temple Israel
Junior Choir.
Bat Mitzvah
'Twin Emigrates
Kara Friedman, daughter
of Lee and Annette Fried-
man, was scheduled to have
twinned her bat mitzvah with
refusenik Irina Fuksshimov,
at 10:30 a.m. Saturday at
Temple Kol Ami. However,
Irina and her family recently
emigrated from the Soviet
Union and are now living in
San Francisco, Calif.
Konstantin and Sofia,
Irina's parents, had applied
for permission to emigrate to
Israel in 1979 and their ap-
plication was refused the
same year due to insufficient
kinship.
Kara will celebrate her Rus-
sian Jewish twin's new-found
freedom as she marks her bat
mitzvah Saturday morning.

This book will remain for ages
to come:'*
*Simon Wiesenthal•
(Renowned Nazi hunter,
Director of Jewish Documentation Center)
"I read the book in a single day; I found it
so compelling it was hard to put down. A
picture is drawn of a man who managed to
stay human amidst inhumanity....We should
be glad such a detailed account of a true
survivor...will remain for ages to come."
Claude Lanzrnann:
(Creator of Shoah)
"An adventure...almost novelesque in the
extraordinary succession of miracles which
enable the young man to remain among the
living so as to eventually tell his story forty
years later with Voltairesque ferocity and
often sheer and invigorating joy.
"From one ordeal to another, outwitting
death time after time, Henry Orenstein, an
intelligent, soberly pessimistic Candide, is
possessed by a will to live so prodigious that
he seems able to maintain his spirit while
overcoming the most improbable odds."
Menachem Begin:
(Former Prime Minister of Israel)
"...An important contribution to bring out the
facts about the cruelty of Nazi Germany, of the
heroic efforts for the survival of our brethren."
Nathan Perlmutter:
(Former National Director,
Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith)
"Riveting. Because the book is innocent of
the affectations and devices of fiction, it is
so overwhelming an experience that half a
century later you are there, experiencing the
fears and, remarkably, experiencing the will
to live. Orenstein prevails as did Jewry and,
reading him, we do too."
Lucy S. Dawidowicz:
(Author
of The War Against the Jews)
"This is a stirring account of a struggle for
life against all odds. Once you begin this
book, you won't be able to put it down."
Allan A. Ryan, Jr.:
(Former director of the Office of Special Investigations
of the Justice Department)
"I Shall Live is a poignant and deeply moving
testament to the human spirit, and to fero-
cious courage in the face of hopelessness...
No reader can be left untouched by it."
