All Jews are responsible for contributing to the ongoing evolution of what it means to be Jewish in our time. At YourJewish, we believe that every individual has something unique to add and we want to be here for you as you discover your voice. We will offer a wide range of opportunities for you to explore and express your unique Jewish voice.
It is designed for families with children ages 0-5 who are looking to form relationships with other families with kids the same age and to engage together in fun Jewish activities. We will sing, play, and lead games and activities related to Shabbat and holiday celebrations. Parents, grandparents, and any other close adults in your child’s life are welcome to join. Children must be accompanied by at least one adult throughout the entirety of the programming. Older siblings are welcome, though the activities will be geared toward early childhood age children.

Read blogsIn the beginning of our sacred stories of creation, God literally speaks the world into being. Rabbi Larry Hoffman has said that if you don’t articulate something out loud in some form (speaking/writing/art/music/etc) then it doesn’t actually exist. Thoughts are just thoughts until we put them out there in the world. YourJewish hopes to find ways to help you bring your inner-thoughts into the world as an act of creative expression.
Sharing our voice enables us to connect with those around us. When we bring our ideas into the world it enables others to learn, grow, and engage. We hope to help you enhance your relationships with others through meaningful dialogue around important ideas.
Finding and articulating our voice enables us to create a better world for all. Through our writing and dialogue, we are able to turn ideas into action in ways that can transform our individual lives, as well as the communities we live in. We hope to work together in community to make the world a better place for all people.
