ReTreat Yourself! Farm to Table Retreat for Jewish Educators
August 11 @ 2:00 pm – August 13 @ 11:00 am
A Retreat for Educators & Faculty of Jewish Day Schools and Hillels
This exciting rejuvenation opportunity is being offered at no cost to participants, thanks to generous funding, and will allow Jewish communal professionals to spend 3 days in community.
Forge meaningful relationships with colleagues in your region while engaging with hands-on Jewish environmental programming, powerful spiritual and wellness practice, and Jewish learning.
This retreat is geared towards those who work in any kind of educator role for a Jewish organization. Examples include a general studies teacher at a Jewish day school, a congregational rabbi, or a youth or adult education director at a synagogue.
Participants will emerge with a broader network of friends and allies in the field, new Jewish wisdom sources for inspiration, and renewed motivation, passion, and commitment to their work. We will talk, sing, pray, move our bodies indoors and outside, eat delicious food, rest, laugh, and reflect.
