OPPORTVNITY

The Heritage provides equal housing opportunities to all individuals 62 years of age or °Idea

religious identities so openly. "I
thought they wouldn't show they were
Jewish in public," said Horesh, who
hates being photographed and tends
to be a little shyer and more diplomat-
ic than Oshrat.
Then there was the matter of syna-
gogue. Neither Oshrat nor Horesh
had been to temple in years. So Tern-
ple Beth El evoked ambivalence.
"There was lots of music, with gui-
tars and tambourines," said Oshrat. "I
had fun, and I sang. I said to my
friend, if synagogues were like this in
Israel, all the teenagers would go. But
on the flip side, everything was a little
too Christian. The rabbis wear tallit
(prayer shawls) like a priest. I had a
funny feeling about that."
Horesh said she believes "religion is'-\
in your heart and not how you pray or
if you keep kosher." She felt Temple
Beth El was too big: "A synagogue
should be small."
Religious differences also surprised
Berger, a Cranbrook ninth-grader. "I
knew before they came that they
weren't Orthodox and didn't keep
kosher, but I guess I was expecting
_y
them to be more religious," she said.

Teens insist Israel
has the same
amenities as U.S.

Although initially reluctant to go
on the teen mission (it will mean
missing camp at Interlochen Center
for the Arts, where she is a regular),
Berger said she's more excited now
that she's met the Israelis and other
metro Detroiters going on the trip.
Berger's dad, Jeffrey, said he had a
good time, too, although his wife,
Mitzi, was away for the week with
their other daughter, leaving him the
lone parent on duty.
"My principal role is drive 'em and
feed 'em," he laughed, adding that he's
been impressed with the politeness of
his young guests. "I've been surprised
at how similar all the kids are," he
said. "It's also interesting that the
Israelis have wanted to do a lot of
shopping — I'm not sure if it's
because they love shopping or because
a lot of things are cheaper here than in
Israel. Every free moment they want
to shop, which is fine, because the
same goes for my daughter!" ti
