Tikkun Leil Shavuot: Encountering Sinai - The Practice of Presence and Living with Awe
2024-06-11 19:30 - 21:00 (America/New_York) | Temple Beth El – Schaefer Family Campus, 333 SW 4th Avenue, Boca Raton, FL, 33432, United States
On Shavuot we are called back to Sinai to relive the experience of revelation. This encounter offers meaningful insight to enhance how we live our lives.
Revelation is more than a specific event: it is an ongoing journey of awe-inspiring wonder. For Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel it is expressed by “living life in radical amazement.” Together, guided by the teachings of great Jewish thinkers and contemporary voices, we will explore how being present and attuned to awe engages our spirit, deepens our connections and invites us to seek out the extraordinary in the ordinary.
Come celebrate Shavuot with an extraordinary evening of study and engagement. Followed by a delicious dairy oneg.
