Foundations of Jewish Family Living
We will do 10 sessions this year (2023) and will do another 10 next year spread out over the year.
Open the Jewish bible and explore the timeless stories of our ancestors and how they relate to 21st-century Jewish life. Discover the values, still so relevant today, embedded in these stories and in our holidays and traditions, and leverage these lessons to bring the conversation home to your family and friends with confidence and enthusiasm. This eye-opening journey will give you the tools to impart the beliefs, richness, and beauty of our tradition to your loved ones, from one generation to the next.
