TORAH STUDY (beit midrash)

Tuesdays, 10:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
with Rabbi Kunin
The Torah is our timeless treasure, with answers for the pivotal questions of the past, present and future. Sometimes it challenges us, and sometimes it disturbs us. Nonetheless there is always room for learning and debate. Each week in this series, we will examine ideas and issues from the weekly parasha and, through discussion and argument, discover meaningful connections between the wisdom of our Torah and our modern lives. Please join this weekly informal Torah study session with Rabbi Kunin on a drop-in basis.
