Join Jen L. and friends for a facilitated discussion, Saturday, March 14th (not 21st as originally posted) from 10am-noon. Bring a coffee, Jen will bring her semi-famous vegan, GF cookies, and we will learn together. RSVP here. 

 

Thank you to everyone who came out to our January Exploring Judaism Peer group.  We are planning our next meeting for March 21st and hope to see even more explorers.

Some questions came up out of our discussion that we would like to explore.  Below are 4 questions, you can approach any or all of them from your personal perspective.  When we meet we will share our thoughts and reflections and see where the discussion takes us.  If you would like to bring an artifact or book from home to share, that is always welcome.  

• Lessons from History: How have Jewish communities managed to survive in the diaspora for 4,000 years?
• The Power of Storytelling: What personal or family stories best illustrate your connection to the Jewish people’s history of migration, displacement, or resilience?
• Reflecting on Roots: “Looking backward is another way of looking deeper into ourselves.” In what ways does knowing your ancestry “ground” you in your life today?
• The Role of Memory: How do we, as a diaspora community, fulfill the duty of remembering our history (e.g., in the face of ongoing antisemitism)?
