Adult Education

Kehilla Kedusha - Sacred Community

Click Here for the 2024-2025/5785 Adult Learning & Spiritual Practice Opportunities.

As we begin the year 5785, we are looking forward to offering a rich array of Adult Ed programs. We are excited to begin a new era at Temple Aliyah with the leadership of our new rabbi, Allison Poirier, and Cantor Linda Sue Sohn. There are many educational opportunities, along with spiritual and social experiences, to allow us to come together as a strong community.

We will continue to expand our in-person offerings at Temple Aliyah to enhance our sense of community while making many of these available virtually by Zoom or livestream.

We will also continue to offer monthly Kiddush Conversations, both in-person and livestreamed, to hear from Temple members about their personal life experiences and challenges. Rabbi Allison Poirier will teach classes in the Fall and Winter/Spring sessions. Rabbi Perkins will continue to lead Daf Yomi on a weekly basis. Rabbi Leslie Gordon will lead Torah on Two Feet on Shabbat mornings monthly. Cantor Linda Sue Sohn will teach musically related classes. We will also bring you speakers from outside the Temple as well as Temple members to present a variety of stimulating topics. We look forward to any feedback you wish to offer. Although there are specific dates listed in this booklet, please check ComingUp@Aliyah and The Sunday Scoop for any program updates on dates, times, and venue.

I wish to thank the committee chairs, whose programs appear in this booklet. I also wish to extend a special thanks to Rabbi Allison Poirier, Cantor Linda Sue Sohn, Rabbi Carl Perkins, Rabbi Leslie Gordon, Joan Perlman (Director of Congregational Learning and Engagement), Dan Winograd (VP of Education), and the Adult Ed Committee (Aliza Cooperman, David Landau, Ellen Moskowitz, Jessica Weiss, and Dan Winograd), who helped edit the many programs listed in this year’s Adult Learning and Spiritual Practice Opportunities booklet.

Please feel free to browse this catalogue for educational and spiritual opportunities and attend a program or two, or many more.

Best wishes for a happy, healthy and sweet 5785!

B’Shalom,
Susan Glazer, Adult Education Committee Chair
