ROSH HODESH:
IT’S A GIRL THING!


For girls in sixth grade
and seventh grade


ROSH HODESH is:
  • An ancient Jewish holiday marking the new moon and new month

  • A time when Jewish girls and women gather to celebrate

  • A “girls only” group that meets monthly on or near the new moon to munch, talk, do ritual, learn, and feel comfortable, Jewish and good about ourselves
Rosh Hodesh: It’s a Girl Thing! meets one Sunday evening a month.

ISH

For guys in eighth grade

Led by Rabbi Benjamin Zeidman, ISH (pronounced ee-sh) is a new, cutting-edge program specifically for Jewish eighth grade guys. We are one of just a few sites around the country offering this new program that involves games, movies, TV and looking at what it means to be a Jewish man. Ish is about friendship, hanging out, eating, chilling and learning about who we are as guys. We won’t just be sitting in a classroom. Instead we’ll be making meaningful friendships, relating to our Jewish heritage and dealing with the expectations society puts on us. Here’s your chance to have a great time, connect with friends new and old, and help be part of an exciting new program!

Ish meets one Sunday evening a month. For more information, contact Rabbi Zeidman
