Come catch up with your friends after winter break, and play some of your favorite virtual games on Zoom. This event is intended for 3rd-6th graders. 

The Hebrew Speaking Havurah continues! Each session, we discuss a different topic, with a different member leading it. Meetings will be in person (if in an enclosed space, masks will be required).

Join us for a relaxed hour with good conversation and your favorite drink. All are welcome.

In this year of shemita (sabbatical year), we will study rabbinic and hassidic texts on Shabbat, opening up a doorway to the 25 hour taste of the world to come. No previous textual experience necessary.
