Who is "too Jewish"? And who decides? Like us, the Jews of 2,000 years ago struggled to draw boundaries between Jewish and not Jewish, between being distinctively Jewish vs. assimilating into an attractive and welcoming mainstream culture. That's what the story of Hanukah is about. Join us to explore our identities, Jewish, not-Jewish, or not-sure, in light of the Hanukah story, and to enjoy a delicious, no-experience-necessary Shabbat dinner, on Friday, December 18. All are welcome! Childcare free by reservation. About Jewish Gateways: Are you seeking connections to Jewish life and community? Do you want to explore Jewish identity in an open environment? Jewish Gateways is here to help. We welcome wandering or wondering Jews & non-Jews, singles, couples, & families, those in interfaith & multiracial relationships, Jews-by-Choice, adult children of interfaith families, members of the LGBT community, & people of color. Run dates: 2009-12-06 - 2009-12-18 |
