The Beit Midrash or House of Learning is the place where Jews gather to study, to chat, to pray, and to dive into the wealth of Jewish tradition. Grab a hevruta - study partner - or find one when you arrive! Student rabbi Josie will be hanging out in the beit midrash to help guide your self-directed learning. Is there a question you’ve always wanted to know the Jewish answer to? Have you always wanted to study a daf - page - of Talmud? Want to explore the week’s torah portion? Come and learn!

In this course, we will trace the history of ideas that have shaped contemporary Jewish relationships to the land between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea

Wednesdays 6:30p - 8:30p January 28 through April 29 (no class 2/11 & 4/1)

Suggested tuition: $200 for non members / $54 for members

NEW Meditation opportunity: 

On Shabbat morning there will be a silent meditation from 9:10 -9:45 a.m. preceding the chanting.  Plan to arrive by 9 a.m. to the main sanctuary.  Doors will be locked at 9:10 to protect the silent space. 

At 10:00 the Chanting Service begins. The service will be contemplative as we take time to enter the liturgy through chant, then pause in the silence long enough to allow for an unfolding of possibilities and to develop the skillful practice that allows for Shabbat consciousness to flourish.

Please join Sofie Shefia as we welcome Shabbat.
With Hebrew chants from R. Shefa Gold, we’ll create a calming, uplifting and reflective experience as we gather ourselves from the week. 
We will observe the candle lighting & blessing, healing prayers and mourners Kaddish, as well as Kiddush and hamotzi (challah) afterwards.
