Registration


Registration is closed

Join us as we welcome Rabbi Julie back from her summer break.  We'll enjoy a nice brunch, then Rabbi will lead us in a discussion of our One Book for this year, Loving Our Own Bones: Disability Wisdom and the Spiritual Subversiveness of Knowing Ourselves Whole, by Julia Watts Belser.  And, we will learn from each other.

Belser is a Jewish scholar and disability rights activist based at Georgetown University. The book is theologically brilliant, deeply personal and relevant to anyone who is living a human life. None of us is permanently able-bodied, and we can all grow in helping to build a world where every person is supported to thrive and every person is supported to participate fully in communal life. Let's start reading now!

This program will be in person and on Zoom.  The Zoom link will be sent to all members and registrants.  Please plan to attend in person if possible so you can join us in community.

There is no charge, although donations from our guests who are not members are suggested. 

Registration is required from those planning to attend in person so we can plan accordingly.
