Miller Introduction to Judaism Program of American Jewish University

“American Jewish University (AJU) is a thriving center of Jewish resources and talent that serves the Jewish community of the twenty-first century. A portal for Jewish belonging, AJU equips students, faculty, campers, and learners of all ages with the tools to create the ideas, build the structures, and develop the programs to advance Jewish wisdom and elevate Jewish living.”

AJU is a part of the Conservative movement, based in Los Angeles, USA. “Conservative Judaism seeks to preserve Jewish tradition and ritual allowing for a modernization of religious practice and is rooted in the wisdom gained at the intersection of heritage and progress. This balance allows Jews to lead truly fulfilled lives; and in an ever-evolving world, provides a message of compassion, enlightenment, and holiness to communities everywhere.”

We are thrilled to collaborate with AJU and be one of their 70+ affiliate network communities around the world, grounding our Jewish Journey’s Foundation Program in their Introduction to Judaism course.

The “signature Intro course explores Jewish culture, history, and wisdom in a setting where questions are more important than answers… Classes cover Judaism’s biggest and most inspiring ideas as well as the nuts-and-bolts of daily Jewish living. Over the 18-weeks we’ll cover history, holidays, practices, text, and values…”

Rabbi Without Borders –
Rabbi Shneur Reti-Waks

“Rabbi Without Borders’ inception blossomed from a yearning to create a relevant and bespoke avenue for members of our community to engage with their Jewish identity. Offering experiences through the Jewish life cycle, including Bar and Bat Mitzvah teaching/learning, events, Chaggim (Jewish festivals), weddings, funerals and pastoral care, my goal is to ensure the experience meets the individual’s and family’s needs.

Whilst still very much in its infancy, I have been honoured to work with many families through their simchas and life cycle events. Unaffiliated to a Beth Din, rabbinical council, I am an independent Rabbi lead by conscience; informed by tradition.”

Rabbi Without Borders is holding it’s group bnei mitzvah program at The Shtiebel, running weekly throughout each term in 2023.

This program is open for all children of Bnei Mitzvah age, regardless of where they may be holding their ceremony, their religious affiliations or experiences. For most learners this would be going in to grades 6 or 7 in 2023.
