Rabbinical Student in Residence Weekend
Ariel Ya’akov Dunat, Jewish Theological Seminary
February 7-9, 2025

We welcome Ariel Ya’akov Dunat, senior rabbinical student, as our student ambassador from the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York. JTS is a rabbinic training institution as well as a center for academic Jewish scholarship and other Jewish professional programs.

Study Session: Shechitah From the Torah to Today
 
Shechitah (ritual kosher slaughter) is one of the more niche skills within the broader Jewish community, along with safrut (scribal arts) and milah (ritual circumcision). Come and learn more about this particular necessary but largely unseen skill, and how it can serve as a spiritual practice in an increasingly industrial world.
 

Because of the storm we have moved the session to Zoom. No need to register -- Zoom link is here!
