Rosh Chodesh Kislev

  • Congregation Mishkan Israel 785 Ridge Road Hamden, CT, 06517 United States (map)

Please join us for our monthly celebration of the arrival of the new moon, marking the start of Kislev. In biblical times, Rosh Chodesh was a day of festive meals and refraining from doing business. Later, it became a special holiday for women.

Our intergenerational group will provide for female-identifying and non-binary individuals 13 years of age and older a place to meet, form bonds, find meaningful ways to worship, and contribute to our community through discussion, song, poetry, storytelling, art, dance, and even food.  

This month's theme will explore "thankfulness as a Jewish emotion".

We hope that you can join us and, for security purposes, ask that you RSVP to Michele Abrams.
