The rabbis as well as their wives kicked off a new year of studies at the Barkai Center. This is the second year of study for the fourth cohort of rabbis and their wives.

The rabbis classes centered on the High Holydays - both from the Halachic and communal perspectives. Of all the classes, a class on Shofarot given by Rabbi Yehonatan Eduar and a class on Helping People To Grant Forgiveness given by therapist Rabbi Michi Yosefi particularly stood out.

The women started off the year with a fascinating and festive session with Rabbanit Mazal Amar, the wife of Jerusalem Chief Rabbi Shomo Amar. She spoke about the critical role that the Rabbanit plays in the community.
