Walking With Torah
In this class, we will use the weekly Torah portion as our guide. Each week, we will open up one core value and teaching from the weekly parasha and use it to respond to the question: what kind of life is the Torah guiding me towards? Each class will interweave Torah text with a variety of spiritual texts - midrash, Jewish thought, Hasidic teachings, poetry and contemporary exegesis - to add layers of meaning to the core Torah teaching and help us explore the essential questions and ethical values of living a life while walking with Torah. All are welcome.

The Sap Is Rising: A Mini Day Retreat for Tu B’Shevat
Monday, February 2nd, 2026
10 am - 12 pm
Rosewood Interpretive Center - Rosewood Beach, 883 Sheridan Rd. Highland Park, IL
The Jewish holiday of Tu B’Shevat, which comes on the 15th day of the Hebrew month of Shevat and arrives in the middle of winter for many of us, offers us entry into closer attunement to the natural world and to what is stirring within ourselves. The holiday is traditionally celebrated at the ‘birthday of the trees” and also has mystical and environmental layers of meaning.
In this gathering, we will share in a form of the mystical Tu B’Shevat seder - a ritual designed to awaken ourselves to the different elements of our spiritual lives, some which may be sleeping and dormant, ready to reawaken. We will use the 4 elements of the tree - roots, trunk, branches, and flowers and fruit - to bring intention to our daily living and prepare ourselves to move through winter towards the blossoming of spring.
The mini retreat will integrate group study, mindfulness, personal reflection and intention setting, and shared conversation in community.
