We live in a world besieged with problems: poverty, sickness, war, oppression of the weak and the other, degradation of the environment. Jewish tradition tells us that we are not expected to solve the world’s problems, but we are obligated to continue to seek justice, to engage in work that promotes tikkun olam, repair of the world. How can we best do this work? How do we choose a focus for our work?
What can we do as a community to sustain each other in this difficult work? Does it matter that we work together as a community?
Through reflection and discussion we can explore these important questions. Please join us on October 28th when we come together to share a meal and celebrate Shabbat.
