Not to Worry?! The Jewish Tradition of Worry, When it Helps, and When it Doesn't
Do you have what's been called the Jewish "genius for worry"? (It doesn't require being Jewish!)
Why is Jewish culture known for worry and angst?
Is there a positive use for Jewish worry?
If you want to explore these questions, then Friday, January 11, 2008, is for YOU!
Join us to share a no-experience-necessary Shabbat dinner, eat, laugh, and learn. All are welcome.
Time: 6:15 PM
Place: Jewish Gateways' cozy home near El Cerrito Plaza and BART station
Childcare: available by reservation
After gathering at 6:15, we'll continue with:
6:30 - Candle lighting and dinner
7:30 - Rabbi Bridget Wynne will lead a lively interactive teaching on Jewish worry
8:15 - Dessert and schmoozing (time to hang out and chat)
Space is limited. Please contact Rabbi Bridget Wynne at Jewish Gateways, (510) 559-8140, or rabbibridget@jewishgateways.org, to make a reservation and get directions and your food assignment. If your schedule doesn't allow you to bring a dish to share, we offer you the option of contributing $7 toward the dinner.
