Dear Colleague,
Please join us Wednesday, February 11, from 11:00 AM to
1:00 PM, in room 204 (the "DL Room") upstairs at the
Mandel Center, for a Mandel Center lunchtime seminar
entitled "Jewish Women's Prayers Are Coming Home"
featuring Dr. Aliza Lavie.
Exploration of long-forgotten treasures of Jewish
tradition, which reveal themselves as profoundly
relevant to modern existential questioning. Jewish
women's prayers, long relegated to the sidelines of
history and heritage, are being restored to their proper
place and becoming accessible, inspiring religious
connection, communication and creativity.
