  Join with the women of Leyv Ha-Ir as we celebrate the new moon.  Following a time-honored Jewish tradition, we will learn and share as we develop our own agenda. Come prepared to feel empowered as we offer you an opportunity to grow from the inside out based on concerns, issues and interests that our members bring to the group.

  We hope to provide unique opportunities for women to share experiences in hopes of creating bonds with one another.

  We look forward to sharing and caring together.

  For more information or if you are interested in helping to facilitate a monthly meeting, please reach out to either Evy Simon or Donna Butler.

  Members will receive the Zoom access information automatically.  Guests are welcome, and should register here at least one day in advance to receive the Zoom information.  There is no charge for this program, although guest donations are welcome.
