Judaism in our Time: New Booklets
Written by Movement for Reform Judaism Thursday, 16 July 2009
Two new booklets have been produced in the Judaism in our Time series from the Movement. The new titles are 'Marriage', compiled by Rabbi Rachel Montagu and 'D.I.Y. Rituals' compiled by Rabbi Laura Janner-Klausner.
Rabbi Laura explains: "Rituals are one of our most powerful tools of Jewish life. In just a few minutes they can change reality. They can transform you from one status to another, they can help heal and enable you to express the most difficult or the most joyful emotions. Rituals deepen delight and ease grief. They shape, express and maintain relationships.
This D.I.Y. guide will help you create your own rituals and just like most other Jewish rituals, such as bringing in Shabbat or putting up a mezuzah, you certainly don’t need a rabbi to create one for you, but you can design and perform these rituals yourself. These rituals are for individuals, families and friends, or for our synagogue communities. They can take place at home, in synagogues or outside such as at a cemetery, the park or even the seaside."
To obtain a copy of either title, please be in touch via email or telephone 020 8349 5672 with your name and postal address.
