Jewish Life

The Interfaith Couples Workshop is a 4-week discussion-based course for couples in their 20s and early 30s who do not yet have children.  The workshop is held 4-5 times throughout the year. This cohort meets October 7, 21, 28, and November 4.

Rabbi Shira facilitates a guided, nonjudgmental space for Jews and their non-Jewish partners to talk, learn, and grow – together and as individuals. Each week the class discusses case studies, which are written by 2-3 of the couples, on a specific instance that the Jewish and non-Jewish partner felt raised questions in their relationship.  Text studies and articles supplement the 90-minute class. Couples should make time for an additional hour each week to discuss the case studies with their partners.
