Sunshine Psalms Monthly Get Together
This group will gather monthly with a clergy/Jewish educational leader to study Psalms of healing. From Reb Nachman's teachings on healing to the ten Psalms that Reb Nachman outlined that bring about full healing to Psalms responding to depression, this study group will aim to inspire as it creates congregational connections and healing for those struggling with depression and anxiety. We will incorporate information on how to cope with these challenges using JFS as a resource when needed.
Our lay coordinator will communicate with those who express interest to find out the best time for meeting. It might be an early morning coffee/breakfast group or a lunch group. If you are interested, please contact Ayesha Here. |
