PLEASE SAVE THE DATE NOW to attend our upcoming workshop:

OPEN MINDS, OPEN HEARTS: EXPLORING CLASS DYNAMICS IN OUR KEHILLA COMMUNITY

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 7, 2018 – 1-5pm at Kehilla

A Free Experiential Workshop for ALL Kehilla Members:
Facilitated by Kehilla member Penny Rosenwasser and members of Kehilla’s Working Class/Low Income Group
RSVPs to maya@kehillasynagogue.org

⧫ Get to know your fellow congregants (and yourself!) on a deeper level

⧫ Gain understanding and compassion as we learn about our differences and similarities — and the ways that we have all been influenced by society’s concepts of Jews, money, and power

⧫ Recognize the gifts you’ve received from your class backgrounds, and how you can utilize this awareness
in Kehilla and the wider community

⧫ Brainstorm ways that Kehilla can be more responsive to and inclusive of members who are working class / lower income
