A Taste of Judaism: Are you Curious?

Rabbi Shira Joseph will teach a course on Judaism designed for people of all religious backgrounds at Congregation Sha’aray Shalom in Hingham.


Called A Taste of Judaism: Are You Curious?, the course, which is free and open to the public, is a three-session program sponsored and prepared by the Reform Jewish Outreach Boston of the Union for Reform Judaism.


As is indicated by the name, the course is designed to show people what is ‘delicious’ about Judaism; our faith, our customs and our community, noting that the course is geared for adults who would like to explore Reform Judaism's relevance in today's world.
