Class Name:  Hidden in Plain Site: What Our Matriarchs Come to Teach

Class Description: We all know that Abraham models hospitality and that Moses possessed humility, admirable traits we are taught to emulate.  But what do Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel and Leah, Miriam and the others come to teach us?  This class explores the middot (characteristics) modeled for us by our Matriarchs as they faced life's challenges--longing and love, jealousy and rage, curiosity, self-determination, and dreams for the future.  This highly interactive class will examine how their struggles offer lessons for us all and continue to shape our Jewish values in every generation.  All are welcome, Hebrew not required.
