Description
Is Being Jewish a Birthright?


If you're "born Jewish," are you automatically a Jew?

Who's considered to be born Jewish, and who is not?

Can you choose to be a Jew?

Join us to explore these questions Friday, July 25.
We will share a delicious, no-experience-necessary Shabbat dinner, eat, laugh, and learn. All are welcome.


Childcare: available by reservation

After gathering at 6:15, we'll continue with:

6:30 - Candle lighting and dinner
7:30 - Rabbi Bridget Wynne will lead a lively interactive teaching on what it means to have a Jewish birthright -- or not -- and whether you can choose to be a Jew
8:30 - Dessert and schmoozing (time to hang out and chat)
Space is limited, so RSVP is required.


Please contact Rabbi Bridget Wynne at Jewish Gateways, (510) 559-8140, or rabbibridget@jewishgateways.org, for more information, and to make a reservation and get directions and your food assignment.
