Sunday, Oct 2nd 10:00a to 11:00a
Welcome to the largest Jewish aquatic restoration community. For thousands of years, in a ritual called Tashlich, Jews around the world have symbolically cast their sins into a body of water on the holiday Rosh Hashanah. For 60 years humans have been throwing their sins, trash and debris into bodies of water as well. The Jewish community has shown we can cast sins in, now let’s take them out. Join Repair the Sea | Tikkun HaYam, and Jewish communities around the world for a Reverse Tashlich. -

Sunday, Oct 9th 10:00a to 11:30a
Please join us for a very special evening to mark the beginning of Sukkot in community with our friends from Chicago-based nonprofit, ConTextos. Founded in 2011 by Congregation Rodfei Zedek member Debra Gittler, ConTextos harnesses the power of the literary arts and storytelling to promote dialogue, healing and reflection. They have worked with over 1,000 Chicago authors, particularly those most impacted by Chicago’s intractable problems of gun violence and mass incarceration. Rooted in Jewish values and themes such as redemption, atonement and forgiveness, and the obligation of bearing witness, ConTextos aims to build a big table where we can sustain one another through storytelling, conversation and community care. This is a powerful opportunity to build understanding and reframe relationships as we profess our hopes for the future and find healing in the abundance that is our beloved city of Chicago.
