Date : Sunday, May 17
Join other Jews of Color young professionals (ages 21-45) on Sunday, May 17 to celebrate Shavuot with Ammud and EDJCC! We’ll learn a bit of Torah over ice cream and then head to a nearby beer garden to hang out and socialize.
Before Shavuot, learn some joyous Torah in sweet affinity with Jews of Color in Brooklyn, Denver, and Boston, taught by Ammud’s Ambassador Rabbis. Ice cream’s on us!
This program is an affinity space for adults who identify as Jews of Color.
Want to learn to read the Hebrew aleph-bet from scratch, or strengthen your skill with the letters and sounds? Join us for Ammud’s Intro to Hebrew class!
The ancient kings of Yisrael kept a Torah scroll next to their thrones, so that they would Read It – Kara Vo – and it would remain with them all the days of their lives (Devarim 17:18-19). Reading the Hebrew aleph-bet is a first step towards making Torah yours, a lifelong companion.
