In planning these events, we have been guided by a vision of Westminster as a community of learners in which we study deeply and regularly together, developing our Jewish skills and strengthening our practice and knowledge. We are excited to explore new texts and different styles of learning with each other over the coming months. In addition to our regular monthly Oneg Shabbatot, there are plenty of opportunities to come together and learn. 

Shabbat learning

Purim: Magic & Mystery - Saturday 23rd March, at 12:45-2:00pm

Join us as we explore the mystical side of Purim idea of Esther yerakroket – Esther as green – and the ways in which she transforms through the Purim story. We will of course look at Elphaba Thropp, the witch from Wicked. We will be reading the Tiferet Uziel, an 18th century Chassidic rabbi from Poland, who writes about the connection of this idea to the mitzvot (commandments), as well as the Zohar. This Oneg will get you into the Purim spirit of silliness, playfulness, mystery, and possibility. Sign up here.

All-day Intensives

On Shabbat afternoon, 20 April, we’ll be inviting a range of educators to lead sessions as we explore philosophy, learning, and practices of Jewish Spirituality & Mysticism in preparation for Pesach. From Chassidut to Mussar to Kabbalah, we'll delve into some of our most esoteric texts, that have the possibility of transforming our lives and Jewish journeys. Sign up here!
