    Families-What it Means to Become a Teen

    Sunday, Nov 10th 9:30a to 10:30a
    Our synagogue has chosen to partner with Moving Traditions (www.movingtraditions.org) to pioneer a new approach to b-mitzvah. The Moving Traditions family education and preteen sessions we will be connecting Jewish wisdom to the inter-personal and social elements that come with the coming of age ritual. The Moving Traditions sessions aim to help you and your preteen think beyond the bimah or celebration and focus on the core questions of what it means to become a teenager today and what it means to become the parent of a teenager. In order to help you and your child think about this, we look forward to seeing you for our interactive family workshop for preteens/teens and adults, called “Today You Are An Adult: What Does It Mean To Become a Teen?” Lunch included.

    Challah Days of Gratitude: A November Bake

    Sunday, Nov 10th 3:00p to 3:30p
    Join us for a "Challah Days of Gratitude" Bake! While we wait for our challah dough to rise, we’ll engage in a fun and meaningful activity called *Grateful Braids*. Together, we'll reflect on the many blessings in our lives by writing down what we are grateful for, then braid our thoughts into a collective gratitude chain. It’s a wonderful way to connect with others, share in the spirit of thankfulness, and infuse our challah with intention and warmth. Let’s bake, bond, and celebrate the season of gratitude!
