Midrash Center for Jewish Learning

girl with computer

The Midrash Center for Jewish Learning provides Temple Sinai's congregants, from preschool through adults, with educational opportunities that strengthen their ongoing relationships with God, Torah and the People of Israel.

At our Center, we are committed to:


Employing best practices in formal and informal education;

Crafting learning experiences to be meaningful, engaging and pleasurable;


Viewing the world around us through dynamic Reform Jewish lenses and welcoming conversation within and about the varieties of Jewish expression;


 . . . so that the members of our community will make a lifetime commitment to Jewish learning.

 

As Jews, we passionately believe that learning is a core act of Jewish living. In our community, there are many who want to learn beyond the basics to answer their questions about God, the meaning of Torah and tradition, and to make Judaism even more relevant in their lives. This is the essence of midrash - to seek out answers that help us live a more meaningful life.  Temple Sinai is committed to providing a seamless continuum of Jewish learning for all members of our Temple community, no matter their age or background.

 

On behalf of all the faculty and congregants who invest their passions and talents into the ongoing education of our community, I want to thank you for expressing interest in our programs.
