Grief Garden Circle: Monday Mournings (FromSoil2Soul)

Once a month, IKARites in their 20s and 30s come together to study a series of texts that speak to a pressing theme of our time. Each session addresses a different set of texts and a standalone topic. No previous experience with Jewish text required.  Led by Rabbinic Intern Jacob Schatz, with occasional guest facilitators. Timeline: 7 PM – Dinner 7:45 PM – Learning (indoor/outdoor)

Our virtual Morning Minyan is one of the best-kept secrets of IKAR. Monday-Friday and Sunday at 8am PT on Zoom, we’ll explore a different modality we might use to help us access our prayer life: singing, meditation, study, etc. And each day we will end with a Mourner’s Kaddish.

An Evening with Sally Abed and Nadav Shofet Join us to discuss this critical moment in Israel-Palestine and how Standing Together is organizing for peace, equality and a shared future. Standing Together is the largest progressive grassroots movement organizing Jewish and Palestinian citizens of Israel. In recent years they have become one of the most powerful voices in Israeli society fighting against the Right’s campaign of forever wars and occupation and for a society based on peace, equality, and social justice. Join Nadav and Sally for a moderated discussion with Forward senior columnist Rob Eshman. They will share first-hand updates on the movement’s activism in the aftermath of Israel’s October elections and the work that lies ahead.
