NEW! 6 week course in partnership with the Jewish Deaf Resource Center Fall 2023 - Wednesdays October 11, 18, 25, Nov. 1, 8, 15 7:00 - 8:30 PM EST This course will be taught by Rabbi Rebecca L. Dubowe, who is Deaf. Registration is now open. Go to: www.meltonschool.org/jdrc Discover, during this six-week course, the Jewish responses and rituals that take us through mourning and arrive at a place of healing. When death inevitably enters our lives, Jewish wisdom and ritual can help us cope with heartbreak and loss, the anguish of why suffering exists. We will also seek to understand the big questions of what Judaism says about life after death and its understanding of messianic times. With a wider lens, we gain a context with which to better understand our moments of anguish as individuals and as a community. This course, taught through American Sign Language, is for Jewish Deaf and Hard of Hearing adults, including Deaf and Hard of Hearing interfaith partners. Melton in ASL, a program of the Melton School of Adult Jewish Learning, is partially supported by the Jewish Deaf Resource Center's operating grant from the UJA Federation of New York.
