    To Be Given Closer to the Event

    Jewish Women Rooted: Welcoming the Month of Elul As summer begins to soften and the days grow a little quieter, we will welcome the Hebrew month of Elul, a sacred season of reflection, compassion, and gentle renewal. Elul invites us to pause, listen to the whispers of our hearts, and prepare ourselves for the High Holy Days with intention. Join us for an evening of meaningful conversation, connection, and reflection as we explore the unique spiritual energy of this month. Together we’ll share wisdom, discover Jewish insights, and create space to notice what we are ready to release, what we are grateful to carry forward, and what hopes we want to nurture in the year ahead.
