JProStL High Holiday Lunch & Learn

JProStL is sponsoring a High Holiday Lunch & Learn for staff who work at Jewish organizations on Wednesday, September 6, 11:30 am – 1:30 pm at the Jewish Federation Kaplan Feldman Complex. The overview of the Jewish calendar and upcoming Holidays is planned for staff of all faiths and backgrounds, whether new to the Jewish community, or seeking a refresher. Bring a light lunch and we’ll provide a selection of traditional Jewish foods. The session will be led by Rabbi Andrew Terkel and Hannah Rubin-Schlansky.

JProStL is for staff who work at least 15 hours/week at Jewish organizations throughout St. Louis. The program is free of charge. RSVP with Devorah Stein, JProStL Resource Assistant at DStein@JFedStL.org. For information, contact Marci Mayer Eisen, MEisen@JFedStL.org or 314-442-3810
