Shabbat Morning Torah Study:
Saturdays from 9:30 - 11:00 AM Central
Our online Shabbat Morning Torah Study is led by Rabbi Rosen and features an interactive discussion of the weekly Torah portion. All are welcome and no knowledge of Bible or Hebrew is required. Please contact admin@tzedekchicago.org for the Zoom link.
Family Education Program:
Every other Sunday from 10:00 to 11:30 AM Central
Join Tzedek Chicago families for joyful, liberated, and intergenerational learning every other Sunday morning at 10 am. We gather twice a month in Uptown for songs, play, and experiential learning grounded in solidarity with all oppressed people. Our program runs from the fall to spring of each year—email Aviva at aviva@tzedekchicago.org for registration information.
Midweek Gathering:
Wednesdays from 3:00 - 3:30 PM Central
Our weekly online Zoom gathering is designed for Tzedek members and friends to gather together for support, connection and learning. Our half-hour check-in gathering will end with a Mishabeirach ("healing prayer") for loved ones. Please contact admin@tzedekchicago.org for the Zoom link.
Hebrew Learning Community:
Sundays at 1 PM Central
The Hebrew Learning Community is a participant-led group of Tzedek Chicago members and friends who meet to explore a wide range of topics that are (sometime loosely!) connected to our developing understanding of biblical Hebrew. The groups' understanding ranges hugely and no prior knowledge of Hebrew is required. For more info or to be added to the Google group, email songeveryday@gmail.com
