Please join us for
Pursuing Justice in
the In-Between
A night of celebration and
conversation for the festival of Sukkot.
As Jews and
as change makers, we live in between the world as it is and the
world as it should be. Sukkot gives us an opportunity to pause
in our daily pursuit of justice, celebrate the fruits of our
labor, and replenish our spirits for the year ahead. We build a
fragile sukkah, a temporary dwelling between nature and
the human-made world, which represents both protection and
exposure. Simultaneously, it is customary to open our temporary
home to guests, creating and celebrating community. As we spend
seven days in the sukkah, we learn how to live in
vulnerability and openness.
Join us to celebrate Sukkot
and explore with Simon Greer and guest speakers how working in
community makes possible our pursuit of justice in the
in-between.
