SUMMARY:What Happens When We Die?
DESCRIPTION:Death is the one thing every one of us has in common — and yet\, for many\, it remains shrouded in mystery and fear. This four-part class invites us to face that reality with courage\, curiosity\, and Jewish wisdom. Join Rabbi Steven and Mishkan’s Progressive Chevra Kedisha to learn the rituals and practices around death and mourning\, explore the landscape of end-of-life planning\, and reflect on what it means to live with greater clarity knowing that our days are finite. One of the greatest gifts you can give your loved ones is a plan — so that when the time comes (and it will)\, they can grieve fully without the added burden of guesswork. Let’s create space to talk about what scares us\, what sustains us\, and how our tradition helps us hold it all. \nThis is a four-part class that meets in the evening on the following dates: February 9th\, February 23rd\, March 9th\, March 23rd. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Roots and Rituals: Exploring Faith\, Food\, and Culture with Lawndale Christian Community Church
DESCRIPTION:Join Mishkan Chicago and Lawndale Christian Community Church for a new series bringing together adults in their 20s and 30s to share meals\, study sacred text\, and build relationships across lines of race\, class\, and faith.

SUMMARY:For the Sake of Argument: A Workshop Series -- MOVED to Mishkan HQ!
DESCRIPTION:Some arguments build understanding – others build walls. Join Rabbi Lizzi and Robbie Gringras\, co-founder of For the Sake of Argument\, for a three-part workshop series designed to help us argue better: with compassion\, curiosity\, and conviction. Through text study\, practice\, and reflection\, we’ll build the muscles we need to speak our truths\, hear others fully\, and hold tension without breaking relationships. Just in time for Passover\, let’s transform how we talk\, how we listen\, and how we argue. \nThe 3/12 session is no longer postponed. We will meet at the original time of 7:00 – 9:00 PM at Mishkan HQ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is a three-part workshop that meets on the following dates: March 12th\, March 19th\, and March 29th. This program is $36/attendee for General Admission and $18/attendee for Builders.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister

DESCRIPTION:Death is the one thing every one of us has in common — and yet\, for many\, it remains shrouded in mystery and fear.
