Facilitated by Gesher Calmenson

“The Letters of Creation” Returns for 4 Mondays in July
Starting July 6 and running through July 27

An ancient Jewish tradition tells us that the letters of the Hebrew alephbet are the building blocks by which G-d created and continues to create the world.  In this series of meetings we will engage the letters one at a time and, as we choose to do, respond to them with our own creativity.

Each session features a short talk about the mystical properties of a particular Hebrew letter, followed by an open space for participants (who wish) to share their prayers, poems, songs, crafts, drawings, writings, reflections—whatever they have been moved to bring into being in response to the form, sound, and spiritual content of letters visited in previous sessions.     

Register to receive zoom address in order to participate. The requested fee for this course is $36. Siding scale is available, and free participation for those strapped during this challenging time.
