Adult Education

The key to Jewish continuity is our people's commitment to the study of our sacred traditions. One of the greatest challenges facing Judaism today is our inability to articulate to a younger generation what Judaism has to say about the issues of our day.

To address this issue, we offer a variety of programs that occur throughout the week which aim to make Judaism contemporary and meaningful in an existential way.
 

 

Adult Education Opportunities
Classes are open to members and visitors.  For more information contact the center at 788-3426 or tcjc@mchsi.com.  Feel free to attend any of these classes.

Torah Talk
A once-a-month program called "Torah Talk"
will be held after services on the third Saturday
of the month.  This will replace the drash during
services, so we hope you'll stay for lunch on these
special Shabbats. 

February 18—Torah Talk Topic:
An Eye for An Eye

Jewish Meditation Series, Wednesday Feb. 1st, 8th and 15th at 7 pm
