SUMMARY:In this Moment: A Trans and Ally Gathering and Teach In
DESCRIPTION:Please join Nefesh for a day of gathering in community for Trans safety and solidarity \n\n\n\nIn this critical moment\, our Jewish community holds unique power to advocate for and be in solidarity with our trans\, nonbinary\, and intersex community members. Join us as we hear directly from the community about what’s needed—and how we can all step up to ensure safety\, dignity\, and justice for trans people everywhere. \n\n\n\nThis event will begin with an update on both legal status and healthcare access; how we got here and what we can expect\, provided by Nefesh community members who are lawyers and health care workers. We will then move into community circles: one for allies and parents lead by Nefesh kin\, and another for the trans\, nonbinary and intersex community lead by a trans therapist for support\, shared space\, and organizing. \n\n\n\nWe look forward to connecting with each other to build our network of support for the work ahead. We hope to see you there! \n\n\n\nWhen: Sunday\, May 4th 10:45am-12:15pm \n\n\n\nWhere: St. Be’s Church Parish Hall in Eagle Rock: 2109 Chickasaw Ave\, Los Angeles\, CA 90041 \n\n\n\nNOTE: St. Be’s is now also housing St. Mark’s of Altadena\, whose church burned down in the fires. They will be in the sanctuary on Sunday morning\, and we will be upstairs in the Parish Hall. The Parish Hall is up a flight of stairs\, which is a challenge for accessibility; so the event will also be on Zoom to provide greater accessibility (Zoom link sent once you register). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSign Up

SUMMARY:Spring Mussar with Rabbi Susan Goldberg
DESCRIPTION:Such times we are in! We are living in a moment of overlapping crisis with the possibility of profound change. Our ancestors navigated their own times of crisis and have wisdom to share. They are lovingly nudging us to grasp onto our deepest spiritual values\, the middot\, and allow them to guide us forward. We warmly welcome you to dive into the middot together in our Spring Mussar with Rabbi Susan. Mussar is Jewish wisdom perspective and a discipline of spiritual PRACTICES centered on our deepest values.  \n\n\n\nThis series will focus on Emunah\, Faith\, Bitachon Trust\, Achreyut Responsibility and more. Together we will learn\, come to deeper awareness about our lives and engage in specific practices. This series is specifically designed for those who have studied Mussar before and those who have not. There will be an orientation for those who are new. You are welcome to invite others in your life who are needing a compass in these overwhelming times! Rabbi Susan’s brings her feminist\, queer\, and embodied approach to this wisdom tradition and spiritual discipline focused on growth and transformation within our inner lives\, relationships\, communities\, and the world around us. \n\n\n\n\nSign up for Spring Mussar\n\n\n\n\nWe meet in person in Eagle Rock and on Zoom on the first Sunday of the month starting in February from 10:45am-12:00pm. For Spring Mussar\, we ask that participants commit to the full series\, so we are not able to accommodate requests to join after the February 23rd class.
