Thanks to @josh_kurtz94 , Community Creative Fellow at the @thevilnashul and @cjpboston , for a wonderful workshop last week!
Around 20 folks joined us for The Wovenness of Things, a brilliant session on weaving in the Jewish tradition and chance to actually make something beautiful.
Our 6-8th graders completed their unit on Jewish theology at Hebrew School today! This last session was on different Jewish thinkersā conceptions of God ā and how their ideas inform our own personal theologies. Students debated, read, wroteā¦ and enjoyed eachother. š«
āļø mazel tov to Rabbi Zelkha, her husband Jesse, and her son Akiva on his upsherin! We gathered for a sweet ritual to mark his first haircut, on Lag BāOmer š„! And the littlest ones got to learn the Hebrew aleph-bet, a tradition once children turn 3 and become learners of Torah. ā¤ļø
Thanks for the songs, blessings, and community!
Thanks, @cambridgezencenter , for these photos of the Interfaith Panel last week!
Rabbi Zelkha joined Brother Keith from The Society of Saint John the Evangelist, Swami Tyagananda of the Vedanta Society of Boston, and Colin Beavan JDPSN of the Zen Center for a conversation on the personal dimensions of spirituality.
