This year Portland Jewish Academy is partnering with Chai Mitzvah to offer an innovative program that combines text and experiential learning and empowers you as parents and adult learners to take a Jewish journey similar to the one that your child experiences daily. You will spend nine months studying, practicing ritual and social action, and growing. You can strengthen your connection between the school, parents, the community and local congregations. Your personal journey includes five key components; • Monthly group study through a set curriculum • Personal independent study • Developing or deepening a ritual practice • Engaging in social action • Acknowledging and celebrating your journey Topics may include: • Tzedakah • Peoplehood • Israel • Mindfulness • Gratitude • Community and more! Classes will be meeting monthly Wednesday afternoons 4:30 – 5:45 pm at Portland Jewish Academy. Cost is just $18 for the year. Take one class or take all nine! Walk ins are welcome
