Walking in the Valley of the Shadow
Jewish teaching and practices regarding death, burial, mourning, and consoling the bereaved have provided comfort to Jews facing death for millennia, yet every person facing the end of life and every mourner must walk “in the valley of the shadow of death” in their own way. New Lehrhaus is offering a multi-session program addressing key topics including preparing for death, traditional and contemporary Jewish burial practices, sitting Shiva, how to comfort mourners, and support for families coping with suicide. A stellar group of teachers who have worked in this field for decades will lead the sessions (mostly virtually) with deep knowledge and profound compassion.
This program is supported by the Milton and Sophie Meyer Fund.
