Rosh Chodesh: Sisterhood Connections and Conversations
2025-01-05 09:15 - 11:00 (America/New_York) | FL
Rosh Chodesh, literally translated as, “the new month,” has long been considered a holiday gifted to women – when we take time to focus on our own personal growth.
Come to connect with other women, to grow and reflect on the month that has passed, breathe, and give yourself the gift of time to focus your intentions for the month ahead.
This year, through text study, speakers and inspiring conversations, we will focus on what it means to connect with your intuition, and how to listen and learn from the “still quiet voice” within.
All women are welcome and refreshments will be served.

Together as a synagogue community we will view the exhibition and then hear from a survivor of the brutal attack, as well as reflect together following the experience.
This groundbreaking installation is presented as a way to empower visitors to responsibly explore & bear witness to the tragic events of October 7th and its aftermath.
