JLE Streaming news:

Welcome to the online home of the Jewish Learning Experience.  This year marks the twenty-sixth anniversary of the JLE's founding as a grassroots, independent adult outreach organization in Bergen County, New Jersey.  It's mission is to reacquaint Jewish adults with their religious heritage through classes demonstrating the relevance of the Torah in contemporary times, experiential programs, and Shabbat and High Holiday explanatory services.  The JLE caters to individual needs, including home hospitality and one-on-one learning.  Regardless of your background, you can become part of a dynamic learning group.  Knowledge of Hebrew or of the Bible is not necessary.

Since its inception, the JLE has touched the lives of more than 5,000 unaffiliated families in Bergen County and beyond.

 

There is no vacation from Torah study & spiritual growth.  The JLE is proud to present another action-packed month of events & programs. Please take advantage of all the wonderful learning opportunities that the JLE offers!. 

Challenge yourself, Empower yourself, Enrich yourself.

 

All classes are FREE of charge.

 

As an independent, unaffiliated organization, we depend on the support of the community to continue providing free, excellent programming to the broader Jewish community.
