A Prayer for the Journey from a Place of Disappointment

As you go on your way remember: you are valuable now. You are valuable now in this place. You are full of wisdom.

You have nothing to prove. Use this time to grow. What other opportunities are around you? How can you make a difference? Trust your instincts. Open yourself to this new journey.

Fear may walk beside you, but so does Hashem. Draw on that holiness; it is already inside of you. Keep cultivating it. Put your dreams out there; say them out loud. Believe that good will come to you.

יְהִי רָצוֹן שֶׁתּוֹלִיכֵנוּ לְשָׁלוֹם וְתַצְעִידֵנוּ לְשָׁלוֹם וְתַדְרִיכֵנוּ לְשָׁלוֹם, וְתִסְמְכֵנוּ לְשָׁלוֹם, וְתַגִּיעֵנוּ לִמְחוֹז חֶפְצֵנוּ לְחַיִּים וּלְשִׂמְחָה וּלְשָׁלוֹם.

May it be Your will, Hashem, our God and the God of our ancestors, that You lead us toward peace, guide our footsteps toward peace, and make us reach our desired destination for life, gladness, and peace.

Learning to Say "We": Writing Identity

In this immersion, we will reflect and expand on our personal experiences of identity, using writing exercises and in-depth discussions to think about, challenge, discover, explore, and experiment with different ways to identify ourselves, to consider how those ways connect us to and separate us from others, and how they represent and misrepresent aspects of who we are.

Four sessions, starting June 15th
