Many Paths, Shared Purpose: Crafting Sacred Communities Together.
On Tuesday, May 6, we will offer 18 concurrent 90-minute Jewish learning sessions. These sessions will be centered around the theme “Many Paths, Shared Purpose: Crafting Sacred Communities Together.” This theme is based on the paradigm of the Mishkan (Tabernacle), history’s first Jewish communal project. Through this theme we’ll explore three concentric circles of Jewish life: the individual, the communal, and the national. We can achieve more than anything we could accomplish alone when we bring different paths together into sacred community.
The Jewish Learning sessions have been developed in partnership with JPro25 Scholar in Residence Rabba Yaffa Epstein, Senior Scholar & Educator in Residence at The Jewish Education Project.
