I'm hoping to move to Perth in March and I'd be very grateful if anyone could recommend an
organisation to contact regarding the Jewish community in Perth, preferably the Progressive
community, and things to see and do after I make the move. Thanks. | |

I have some questions about the Jews, the first Judeo-Christians under the leadership of Peter
the Apostle, and their descendants from the time of Jesus to the present. Somehow, the only
informatiuon available and being taught at this time is about the converted gentile christians
which was headed by Apostle Paul. God bless you. | |

Shalom Ozzies,
Just when I thought my connection to Judaism could only be linked
through living in a large metro area with a large Jewish population, I
discovered your web site. I live in a small American city, with only
100-200 Jews in the whole town. It's nice to know you're out there.
Shalom, Steve

This is really a very good site and it's great to be able to find Jewish
Australia on the net. If anyone is Coeliac and wants to know anything about
it please feel free to write to me. I was diagnosed earlier this year and
I have done the most incredible amount of research into it. My gastroenterologist
says that I know more than him!! I am trying to get the Kashrut Authority
to sanction gluten free foods. Is anyone interested in getting a support
group together in Sydney. There are plenty of support groups but no Jewish
ones. |

My husband and I were greatly impressed with the Great Synagogue which
is in Sydney. We enjoyed our visit to the Jewish Museum which we found
educational. I had been to the Simon Wisenthal Center in L.A. U.S.A. and
we had been both to the Holocaust Museum in Washington. Your community
can be equally proud of your accomplishment with your Holocaust Museum. |

This has been very interesting. It would be good to have a site where
I can get in touch with people of simular ages finding out about clubs
etc. I am moving to Melbourne in Janurary and wanted to know about where's
good to live and where I can meet other simular minded jewish people. I
am a modern traditional jew and would like to write to people before I
arrive so at least meeting people will not be such a daunting prospect.
If you can help me or tell me where I can look on the internet

for a site on the current state of plans, to rebuild the temple. It seems
to be a ever growing interest for Jewish people. How goes the search for
RED heifers, etc... Unfortunatley it is very hard to find any sites on

Hi from New Zealand. I'm a male of thirty and discussing with a Rabbi
what the process of converting (Orthodox) entails. Websites like J.O.I.N
are a great help to me. I'll eventually have to travel to Australia as
there is not a Biet Din here to approve my conversion. Although I'll have
a lot of study and a lot of self-discipline to instill in my life before
then. Any converted Jews reading this please feel free to email me. I'd
like to hear some stories. |

I am looking for a synagog which I could attened for the High Holidays
and perhaps a few Shabots. According to this search I believe that the
synagog in South Brisbane is the closest to where I will be studying. I
am also looking for a family who I could share the Holidays with. Please
ask around the Temple to see if anyone could accomadate me. Also if you
know of a synagog that may be closer to where I will be studying please
let me know. I look forward to you responce.

Hi. I'm writing on behalf of the In One Voice festival which is held
each March in Melbourne, Australia.
In One Voice is the biggest cultural event in the Southern Hemisphere,
attracting more than 15,000 people to the annual festival in Caulfield
Park.
Held on the weekend following the Grand Prix (probably March 13-14
in 1999 but dates to be finalised in October), the Sunday festival includes
a six-hour open-air concert featuring amateur and professional Jewish performers,
an art exhibition, community dancing, dispalys by more than 50 communal
organisations ranging from the Jewish Secular Humanistic Society to Lubavitch
Outreach, rides, foodstalls and more.
On Saturday night, a mellower accoustic-style show is held. There
are plans to add a mini-Jewish film festival, comedy, cooking demonstrations
and more youth-oriented activities in 1999.
The theme of our 1999 festival is: Throw away your stereotypes!
There is more to the Melbourne Jewish community than you think! The aim
of In One Voice is to celebrate all the diverse aspects of the Jewish community
which combine to make us strong. It is the only way to see the entire Melbourne
Jewish community in one day.
I am seeking to make early contact with any teachers who are interested
in bringing their students to the 1999 festival to perform at the Sunday
concert alongside their counterparts from Melbourne.
Acts need to have a Jewish theme. Performers can sing on any topic
in Hebrew, Yiddish or Ladino; songs in English must have a Jewish theme.
While we cannot offer any financial assistance in getting to Melbourne,
we will endeavour to organise billeting for anyone coming to perform at
the festival.
With enough pre-planning, it could be the basis of a major excursion
to Melbourne, including educational tours of the Jewish Museum and Australia,
the Jewish Holocaust Museum, schools and synagogues and, of course, other
non-Jewish oriented activity.
Please feel free to contact me at msfran@netlink.com.au I will
be out of the country from June 16 to July 11 but will endeavour to reply
to everyone by the end of July. |

Greetings from Montreal,Canada. I am originally from Brussels, Belgium
having immigrated to Canada in 1947 with a younger brother.A sister now
deceased remained in Belgium.No one else in our family survived the holocaust.So
we thought until quite recently when a document came into our posession
in which reference is made to a female person living in Australia who may
well be my first cousin. Salient facts we know about her include: -Present
name Mrs. R.Fields;maiden name ROZENES -Birthplace Brussels,Belgium,1940/1945
-Father's name Abraham-Hersz ROZENES(brother to my mother Chaja ROZENES)and
mother's name Chaya-Rywka Weisserbs. Both born in Poland and deported to
Auschwitz in June 1943. Scant as these facts are,I am appealing to you
for help,assistance or guidance in our search for this person.Your response,be
it just for now to acknowledge receipt of this e-mail,is anxiously awaited.
Anything more would be an unexpected bonus. |

WILL JUDAISM SURVIVE,and THE UNIVERSAL JEWSare my interests, i have
authored the above book and is availableto any one free of charge on request
and also i publish a monthly magazine the UNIVERSAL JEWS . I felt very
happy to see your web page as i am living in this remote part of world
where you wouldnever imagin a jew surviving , well you might not even imaginthe
vulnerability the jewish communities face in countries such as ours , we
are treated as second class citiziens,are denied governmentjobs and seen
with doubt as spys , are rebuked and our human rights are trampled , but
the surprising thing is that the jews of Eurpoe , america and australia
or israel have never spoken for rights of jewsall over the world as human
beings, when in UNO the israelgovernment is pressurised , dont they or
any other organizationhave the voice to say a word in our favour , i mean
jews livingin vulnerable countreis, daily in our part of world the pressrebukes
and endangers our lives by creating negative sentimentsamong the majorities
though we are living here since years butstill are denied respect and dignityi
would feel pleasure to correspond with your members in australia,dr.david

such as mutual meetings and joined tour to Poland.
Therefore we kindly ask people originating from Zaglembie to forward
