SUMMARY:Inside the Middle East: Navigating the Storm One Year After October 7

SUMMARY:Challah and Conversation: Shelter Us!
DESCRIPTION:On this second day of the fall holiday of Sukkot\, which celebrates the power of shelter in our lives\, we will explore both the contemporary challenges of affordable housing in our region and the spiritual power of being sheltered in all kinds of ways.  While this conversation is inspired by the themes of Sukkot\, its application can touch our everyday lives\, no matter your background or faith.  (Weather permitting\, we might hold this session in our Sukkah (Harvest Hut) on the quad of the JCC.) \nIn the Challah and Conversation series\, Rabbi Ron Symons\, Shames JCC Sr. Director of Jewish Engagement\, leads interactive guided conversations about life that weave the world around us with general spirituality through Jewish and other  lenses. We begin our time together by lighting candles and end with a little grape juice and challah… all in a very inclusive way. Neighbors of all backgrounds are welcome. These are on the 2nd\, 3rd\, 4th\, and 5th Fridays of each month.
