Monthly Read It and Meet

Saturdays after kiddush • about 12:30pm • In person only

Do you have a favorite book you’d like to share, one by a Jewish author or with Jewish content? Our “Read It & Meet” Book Discussions are usually held once a month and are open to everyone! We discuss selected books and share our experiences, reactions, and ideas.

Moderators are needed to facilitate each book discussion. If you would like to suggest a book, act as a moderator, or would like more information, please contact Rachel Green or Mindy Hirsh.
