teach our kids, by example, how to
give and receive comfort."
The traditional meaning of
Selichot is forgiveness, but, Kessler
says, "Forgiveness doesn't mean just
forgive everybody and you'll be
happy."
One of the most moving inter-
views in his recent book, which
forms the basis of his Sept. 8 talk,
was with a concentration camp sur-
vivor. The woman now volunteers
many hours at Los Angeles'
Museum of Tolerance, which focuses
on racism, prejudice and the
Holocaust.
"How do you ask someone like
that to forgive; it's more complicat-
ed than that," he says.
During his two-day visit to
Temple Beth El as Theodore and
Mina Bargman Scholar, Kessler will
present two different talks. Both
take place at the temple.
Kessler's Selichot lecture, which is
scheduled for 8 p.m., Saturday,
Sept. 8, is titled "Life Lessons —
Love, Healing and Forgiveness."
"Elisabeth and I decided to take
the lessons people learn at the end
of their lives, sometimes when it's
too late to apply them, and give
those lessons to people who are still
young enough to make changes in
their lives," he says.
On Sunday, Sept. 9, Kessler will
speak about "The Needs of Our Loved
Ones." The talk begins at 10 a.m.
He describes the subject as "how
to provide hope and love to a per-
son when they're going through a
very rough time in their life."
No one should be "turned off" by
the titles of his talks, Kessler says. "I
bring forth stories that are powerful
but also humorous."
In addition to Temple Beth El,
the event is co-sponsored by the
Hospice of Michigan and
Providence Cancer Institute,
Providence Hospital and Medical
Centers, a member of the St. John
Health System.
