The Language of the Soul: An Introduction to Jewish Prayer 
with Rabbinic Intern Maya Zinkow

Are you yearning to understand the structure of the service and explore its meaning?  If so this course is for you. We'll delve into the structure of the prayer service as well as the meanings of essential Jewish prayers. Together we will consider what it means to pray. Is it a conversation with God, with transcendence, with your own soul? Is it a time to consider what is eternal and immutable? Join us as we explore Jewish prayer through text, song and soulful study. All are welcome.
