Adult Learning
Torah — our ongoing story — and Jewish learning in general, is central to our life as a community. Our learning answers questions and enables questioning, and instills an abiding sense of pleasure in Jewish thought and practice. We strive to develop the basic knowledge and skills needed for ongoing religious practice, cultural engagement, and ethical action. Ideally, learners of all ages and backgrounds will understand what Judaism means for them, identify strongly as Jews, and have the cultural fluency needed for active engagement in Jewish life and community.
-- Kolot Chayeinu Values Statement
What We Offer: Kolot is proud to offer a range of text study, ritual, observation, Jewish Life, language, and prayer. These classes are led both by members of our community, as well as clergy. Stay tuned for 5784 offerings.
Torah Study is a vibrant place for Kolot members to wrestle with Torah together on Zoom and in person at Gethsemane every Saturday at 9:00 am. Non-members are welcome to stop in for a visit. Whatever your relationship (or not) with God, and whatever your level of knowledge of Torah, Hebrew or Judaism, we welcome your questions and opinions. Please join us on a regular basis or drop in when the spirit moves you. Generally, we study the parasha, meaning the Torah portion assigned to the week in question.
Kolot members who want to be added to the Torah Study listserv to receive materials about the weekly Parasha, email Malkie Grozalsky at adminmanager@kolotchayeinu.org.
