Tuesday
May 21Jericho Walk in Burlington, MA
Tuesday, May 21st 1:00p
JOIN THE JERICHO WALKS IN BURLINGTON, MA Every third Tuesday of the month at 1:00 pm (3-2-1) Next walk on Tuesday, March 19 March in Solidarity with those being mistreated by an inhuman immigration system. The Jericho Walk is a silent interfaith prayer and act of solidarity. The walk draws inspiration from the Battle of Jericho, in which the community marched around the city of Jericho seven times, causing the city walls to fall. “The Jericho Walk of today is a silent, peaceful, and prayerful walk to bring down the walls of our unjust immigration system and is open to people of all or no faiths.” Walks take place at the ICE offices in Burlington, MA, 1000 District Avenue, Burlington,MA, 01803. For anyone interested in taking part and carpooling from Newton, or for additional information, feel free to contact Amy Mazur at acmazur@comcast.net. -

May 22Reconstructionist Intro to Judaism
Wednesday, May 22nd 7:30p to 9:00p
Introduction to Judaism: A Reconstructionist Approach If you are beginning to explore Jewish life and practice, or seeking to fill the gaps in your Jewish education, this class is for you! Class sessions will address the foundations of Jewish living, key concepts in Judaism, and offer a taste of the wide variety of Jewish texts. For those interested in conversion to Judaism, the class will serve as a useful introduction, and rabbinic support will also be provided. Come join us on a journey towards meaningful engagement in the riches that Jewish tradition has to offer. When? Ten Wednesday evenings 7:30-9:00pm on the following dates: Jan. 30th Feb. 6th, 27th Mar. 13th, 27th Apr. 3rd, 17th May 15th, 22nd, 29th Cost: There will be a sliding scale between $150-$350 for the ten sessions, but please be in touch with Rabbi Shahar (dcl@dorsheitzedek.org) if the cost is prohibitive. Location: It sounds like there is some interest in meeting in West Newton, and some interest in meeting elsewhere. The first meeting of the class will be in West Newton (at 2nd Church or FUUSN), and then Rabbi Adam will figure out based on the group if it makes sense to do some meetings in participants’ homes. -
