SUMMARY:Adult B'nai Mitzvah Class
DESCRIPTION:We are excited for a new Adult B’nai Mitzvah class! This is an opportunity for adult members of our congregation\, with a group of peers\, to engage with our millennia-old tradition and community ritual of affirming one’s place in the Jewish community. \nThere will be a Hebrew learning component as well as a content study with Cantor Caro\, Rabbi Holzman\, and Rabbi Barrett. The culmination of this journey is set for Shabbat morning\, May 23\, 2026. \nThe Adult B’nai Mitzvah Hebrew class will be divided into two sections from April through August\, to address varying levels of Hebrew. Starting in September\, we will all come together into one Hebrew class. The calendar includes the dates and times for both sections of the Adult B’nai Mitzvah Hebrew classes. \nAll classes will be in person. \n

SUMMARY:Dirshuni: Contemporary Midrashim
DESCRIPTION:Taught by Rabbi Barrett\nWednesdays\, May 7\, May 21\, and one additional date TBD – Please note the April 30 class has been combined with our Yom HaZikaron Observance/Yom HaAtzmaut Celebration\n7:00-8:15pm\, in person and on Zoom \nIn recent years\, there has been a burgeoning interest in contemporary midrashim authored by Israeli women and focused on female figures in scripture. These Midrashim have been collected into a volume called Dirshuni meaning seek for me.  Midrash is an ancient rabbinic form of exegesis\, often seen as “stories” that fill the narrative gaps in biblical texts. Join us for this engaging study\, where we will explore a different midrash in each session. Throughout the course\, we will enhance our textual skills while also opening our hearts and minds to our foremothers’ poignant and emotional stories\, viewing them through a fresh lens\, and dive into this beautiful new collection. \nClick here to register.
