Shabbat morning davening and lunch and learn, April 5

First Parish, 3 Church St., Cambridge (map)

9:15 am

Parashat Vayikra

Join CM next week for Shabbat morning davening followed by a catered, chametz-filled lunch and learn with Carrie Watkins. RSVP for lunch here by this Wednesday, April 2 at 5:00 pm.

Carrie will teach on "Trauma and Resilience in the Pesach Seder." While Biblical Hebrew didn’t have words for “trauma” or “resilience,” our tradition, and the Passover seder in particular, contain deep and precise wisdom on the subject. We’ll explore the Passover story, the seder, and a teaching of the Sfat Emet through the scientific lenses of trauma and resilience and see what it can teach us about Passover, and what Passover can teach us about collective trauma and collective resilience. Carrie is a fourth year Rabbinical Student at Hebrew College, Community Manager for Or HaLev, and Rabbinic Apprentice for the Center for Small Town Jewish Life. 

Shabbat shalom!
