Selichot Program: "The Challenge and Wonder of Being a Jew"
On Saturday evening, September 4, we will come together as a community at 8:30 pm, to delve into "The Challenge and Wonder of Being a Jew". The subject will be presented by Rabbi David Greenstein and Professor William Batkay.
Recent developments, here and in Israel, have highlighted how contentious and problematic issues of Jewish identity can be. What is our attitude to conversion? Is being Jewish a matter of lifestyle, individual and/or communal commitments, consciousness or action?
We will explore classical texts, recent news reports, contemporary thought and personal reflections about these questions in the spirit of honest stock-taking during this New Year season and as part of a process of our continuing growth as a community.
Please join us and share your thoughts - refreshments will be served.
