Join us for the Fall Term of Congregation Beth El’s new Beit Midrash (Housing of Study)! Thursday evenings throughout the year our halls will be buzzing with discussions, study and creativity by those seeking to take another step in their Jewish journey, whether through traditonal texts or creative endeavors! There will be opportunities to study Judaism through holidays, the mind-body connection, arts and culture, social justice, theology, and texts. This program is free and open to the public! No previous experience necessary! Rides are available for those who need.
In November and December, from 8-8:45 we will offer Shabbat Services 101 and the Stand Up for Israel film series. From 9-9:45pm participants can choose between Many Peoples, Many Religions and The How-To's of Jewish Living.
