Please join Rabbi Leah Jordan for Engaging with Judaism. This is on the Friday evening before our morning Shabbat Service. It’s an interesting Jewish learning get together on a Jewish topic. Please let us know if there’s anything you want to learn about or are interested in discussing. The discussion is informal and you can ask questions. There’s always something to talk about!
Topic: Death and Mourning in Judaism What does Liberal Judaism say about death and mourning? Although it is part of our life cycle, we do not often engage in open conversation about it. During our services, we all say the Mourners’ Kaddish together. Where does this tradition come from? What other thoughts, comments, rituals and ideas are there in our (Liberal) Jewish tradition?
We welcome you to come along; please contact Annie or another Council member (via website contacts) if you want to do so.
