    How Jewish Mystics Count the Omer
    Sunday, May 4th 10:00a to 11:30a
    Between Passover and Shavuot, we count the Omer to map our path from Egypt's slavery to Sinai's revelation. The medieval Jewish Kabbalists viewed this time period through the lens of the 10 Sefirot, G-d's mystical attributes. Join us for a crash course in Jewish Mysticism with Rabbi Sara Meirowitz, learning how we can turn these divine attributes into a personal guidebook for creativity, spiritual connection, and productive action. Rabbi Meirowitz (she/her) is Associate Dean of Jewish Education at Gann Academy. A veteran teacher of Jewish texts, she has studied, taught, and edited works of Jewish mysticism in the US and in Jerusalem. RSVP appreciated: adulted@congregationoratid.org
