Jewish Mystical Chanting as Part of Gonzaga's Mass of the Holy Spirit September 14, 2016
Rabbi Goldstein will be leading Jewish mystical chanting in the Hemmingson Center's reflection room, #311  Wednesday at 4 pm. Thanks to Michelle Wheatley for organizing activities related to other faiths on the day Gonzaga celebrates Mass of the Holy Spirit, a mass geared toward blessings in the new school year. While the program is geared toward the Gonzaga community, I think it would be fine for  others who are interested to join. If you have a question, please email me at [email protected].

Schisms and Unity in the Jewish Community with Rabbi Elizabeth W. Goldstein, PhD on Thursdays 7 PM to 8:30 PM January 12, 19, 26 
Although we often think of the word “community” after the word “Jewish,” individual Jews make important and far-reaching decisions about personal practice, institutional support, outlooks and ideologies. These “Jewish identity markers” are highly relevant in shaping the Jewish community now and into the future. For these classes we will focus on issues that combine long held beliefs, cultural influences and invoke the power of ceremony/ritual.
 
The three sessions will cover the following issues:
 
1) Brit Milah/Circumcision as a Jewish identifier.
2) Jewish Purity: Food, Sex, and Death
3) Sacred Ground: Can land be Jewish?
 
 We will approach the topics as both “outsiders looking in” as well as insiders assessing our own unique approaches to Jewish identity.  Each class will have an ancient textual component (text study), and at least two (from differing perspectives) modern responses. Please come with an open mind, and an open heart.  I look forward to learning Torah with you.
