Lifelong Learning
Our Lifelong learning program is a fantastic way to continue learning about our tradition, our holidays, our holy texts, and ideas even if you no longer are the age of a Religious School Student. Stay tuned to this page throughout the year for more information about additional courses.
Upcoming Events
“Davka, Decaf & Dibbur” series with Rabbi
Join Rabbi for this monthly chance to sit down over coffee and discuss important Jewish topics and learn from each other outside of SOJC. If you have a particular topic you’re interested in learning about, please let know at rabbi@sojc.org.
Join Cantor Doug Ramsay For Adult B’Nei Mitzvah Tutoring
If never had the opportunity at the age of 13 to demonstrate your readiness to accept the Commandments as your own, you do now.
Learn the skills to be comfortable on the Bima as a Bar or Bat Mitzvah (Son or Daughter of the Commandments): Lead the congregation in prayer, chant from the Tanach (Hebrew Bible), and teach Torah. Follow Cantor Ramsay as he guides the way to a fulfilling learning experience culminating in a Bar or Bat Mitzvah date of your choosing. No prior Hebrew required, but there is homework involved!
