Adult Education

Jewish education is a lifelong journey! We offer a number of opportunities for adults to learn and socialize as well to improve their Jewish knowledge. Click the link to the various sessions below for more details and discussion details.

Lunch and Learn with Reb Josh

Lunch and Learn group meets every Mondays Noon-1:30pm at the Jewish Community House. Come explore a variety of Jewish-related topics.

Beginning October 21, 2024: Reading Torah with Dirshuni

Bring a Kosher-Style Lunch and an open mind!

Spring 2025: Counting the Omer with the Sefirot

Join Reb Josh in the kabbalistic practice of self-examination through the lens of seven of the ten divine attributes that we, being in the Divine Image, embody in ourselves. Each week we will focus on one Sefirah, from the outpouring love of chesed, to the grounded majesty of Malchut/Shechinah – as we prepare ourselves for the holiday of Shavuot, on which tradition teaches we receive the Torah each year anew.

Every Tuesday at 5:30pm at the Jewish Community House. Reb Josh brings texts from across the Jewish tradition to explore issues of gender and sexuality from a queer perspective. Email Reb Josh to RSVP.
