Traditionally read on the upcoming late-spring holiday of Shavuot, the biblical book of Ruth takes place in the backdrop of ecological crisis, political instability, and a breakdown of social trust and institutions. Yet amidst it all, Ruth’s characters learn to care for one another and lay the foundations for a better future. Join Rabbi Emmanuel for learning and conversation as we explore the Book of Ruth and reflect on its resonances with our current moment and lives today.

We will gather in a Metro accessible location in Central DC. All are welcome, with no prior experience necessary. Address will be shared with registrants.
