April 2023

Last month I attended Limmud New Orleans. Some of the programs I participated in focused on:

• From Biblical Apocalypse to US Foreign Policy – Jason Gaines of Tulane
• Understanding Trends in Contemporary Jewish Life – Ilana Horowitz of Tulane
• Antisemitism in the Region – Lindsay Baach Friedmann of ADL
• Pandemics and Other Plagues: A Jewish Bioethical Response – Rabbi Gary Gerson
• To Bigotry No Sanction: Exploring the Historical Context of American Jewish Identity – Rabbi Katie Bauman of Touro and Michael Cohen of Tulane

It was a great weekend filled with learning, and I look forward to sharing the information with students, teachers, and others in the community!

There will be a PJ Library Concert featuring Judy Ginsburgh on Sunday April 2, 11:30 in the B’nai Zion sanctuary.

So far there are six individuals committed to attending the ISJL conference in June. Please let me know if you’d like to learn more about attending the conference or helping with Religious School in the 23-24 school year!
