Jewish & Newish
Thursday, March 16th - 7:00pm RSVP Here
Are you a Jew by Choice or Thinking of Converting? Join us to ask questions, share triumphs and challenges, and continue to explore your journey with Judaism in a safe place. We recognize that the experiences of those who convert to Judaism are by no means monolithic and thus our sharing will lead to enriching conversations. All are welcome.
ZIGZAG The Museum of You with Roslyn Sholin
Wednesday, March 22nd - 5:00pm RSVP Here
Join guest speaker, Roslyn Sholin, for a fascinating program titled, “The Museum of You is Open. What’s on Display?” Roslyn will share objects from her collection that will help us understand what many immigrants from Eastern Europe experienced in their new home. Everyone has family artifacts and stories that need to be preserved. You have options for how to preserve your family’s legacy. What kind of museum do you want to build? At this special ZIGZAG event, you will learn how to build your family’s museum.
Mussar Torah Study Group
Weekly, Sundays - 10:00am RSVP Here
Temple Emanu-El Adult Education invites you to join an interactive course on The Mussar Torah Commentary: A Spiritual Path to Living a Meaningful and Ethical Life. Mussar teachers through the centuries have sought deep, accurate, and useful insights into human life. The commentary looks to the Torah as a source of fundamental guidance for human living.
Great Questions Discussion Group
Monthly, Sundays - 12:00pm RSVP Here
This is an ongoing group that meets once a month. Temple members are welcome to join us at any meeting. We discuss the Great Questions of Existence that we all ponder, through the lenses of religion, spiritual beliefs and philosophy. Often, we have representatives of various world religions present to, and enter into dialogue with, our group.
Grandparents Group
Monthly, Tuesdays, - 10:00pm RSVP Here
Our topic for this meeting will be to reflect and share the influence our own grandparents and on us as we grew-up. This could include "grandparent figures" who might have also influenced us.
