RAISING THE NEXT GENERATION TO THRIVE – NOT JUST SURVIVE – AS JEWS

        With Rabbi Michael Skobac

 

We live at a time when there are tremendous challenges to Jewish continuity. Alongside our synagogues and educational institutions, the Jewish home plays a critical role in the transmission of our tradition to the next generation. This special program will explore ways in which we can equip ourselves to effectively communicate the spiritual richness and beauty of Judaism to our children and grandchildren.
