Israel shows up in our communities in complicated ways: as love, longing, discomfort, pride, grief, questions, and conflict. In this interactive workshop, we will engage with new findings from Reimagining Israel Education, a groundbreaking initiative led by The Jewish Education Project with the support of The Jim Joseph Foundation and Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Philanthropies. We will explore what Israel education can look like when it is designed for today’s realities in congregational life, including diverse relationships to Israel, big questions, and a deep desire for belonging and meaning.
Participants will:
- Explore fresh approaches to Israel education that can work in your setting.
- Share challenges and bright spots with colleagues and leave with ideas you can adapt right away.
- Engage with new resources to enhance your approach to Israel education.
- Come for honest conversation; leave with practical next steps for your community.
