Why the Jewish Holidays are Wise

Limudim Adult Ed Presents Why the Jewish Holidays are Wise with Sara Lynn Newberger

Each Jewish holiday connects rituals to values to stories, allowing for many points of access and opportunities for connection. Exploring these elements of holidays can enrich traditional practice, make space for innovation, and provide us with opportunities to reflect on our lives, our values and our stories. We will look at a few holidays as models and consider resources for further learning.

The Encampments

On Tisha B’Av we gathered to watch the documentary October H8TE – The Fight for the Soul of America.

To understand the moment we are living in, we now present the documentary

The Encampments

to hear the voices of those protesting in their own words.

A discussion led by Rabbi Tamar Magill-Grimm and Rabbi Adam Spilker will follow the film.
