Beth+Israel+(Owings+Mills,+MD)

Beth Israel will expand its engagement of families on Shabbat and holidays through study and exploration of the theme of chesed in the context of communal Shabbat practice, and Shabbat afternoon joint parent-child activities, adult study, intergenerational programming, as well as “chagim shel chesed”: a systematic program using each of the festivals and holidays to highlight a different value from the spectrum of chesed and social action in connection with the holiday. Resource material will be developed to highlight chesed/tikkun olam experience for each holiday for each weekly Torah portion. Families will be expected to participate in at least three chesed/tikkun olam activities during the year, related to a holiday or to the Torah portion, using the resource material as their guide.
