Netiv HaTeshuva
Kabbalah as a Tool Toward Spiritual Transformation and Teshuvah – Part II
Led by Joseph Bendahan
The days leading to Yom Kippur is a propitious period when we are granted a special opportunity to cleanse our souls and elevate our spirits. In Kabbalah, every misdeed creates a barrier between us and God, which can only be mended through sincere return. This process involves three key elements: recognition of wrongdoing, remorse for actions taken, and resolve for future change. This Netiv session, (held in classrooms 15-17, concurrently with the Musaf service in the sanctuary), will be led by Joseph Bendahan, who returns for a second look at the tools for transformation. We will review basic concepts of Kabbalah, and proceed to introduce new topics relevant to the journey of self-improvement. This session will include a short meditation as one tool towards individual transformation. This talk will be suitable for all adults and teens 13+ including those who attended Joseph’s lively session last year, as well as those who did not.

The discussion will be led by Deborah Estreicher. Approximately four weeks ahead, we will have 12 copies of this book from the Jewish Community Library to lend out.

Jewish Women Throughout History with Rabbi Kunin
Jewish history and tradition has been focused primarily on men, leaving out the essential contributions of women over the ages. In this class we discover amazing Jewish women (some well-known and some who have largely been lost)  from Hulda the Prophetess, to donna Gracia Nasi, to Golda Meir.
