TWO NEW CLASSES TO START IN SEPTEMBER!
NEW ADULT BAR/BAT MITZVAH COURSE - ORIENTATION MEETING MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 27 AT 7:00 PM
For the next two years, study with our clergy and fulfill a dream: to lead worship, chant from the Torah and learn sacred text. Classes will meet Monday evenings from 7:00-8:45 pm. Curriculum includes Hebrew, liturgy, Torah and theology. Open to all Temple members with basic Hebrew reading skills. Click here for complete details.
NEW WEEKLY HEBREW-BASED TEXT STUDY WITH RABBI STEIN - STARTS MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 13 AT 6:30 PM
This is a weekly class for adult learners who would like to examine prayers, the weekly Torah portion, writings from Pirke Avot, and other rabbinic texts in Hebrew. Sessions will include vocabulary, grammar, and translation as well as discussion concerning the texts’ meaning. Open to all Temple members with basic Hebrew reading skills who would like to deepen their appreciation of original texts and the Hebrew language. If you’re interested in participating but worried about your Hebrew proficiency, please come to the first class and try it out… you may be pleasantly surprised! Class starts Monday, September 13 from 6:30-7:15 pm and continues weekly.
