What's happening at the JLE ?

 Special Programs

Challenge yourself. Empower yourself. Enrich yourself.

 

Jewish?

Do you Know what that means?  Get some Answers....

The Jewish Learning Experience welcomes you.  We provide free classes for adults seeking to expand their Jewish knowledge and awareness.  This is done in a warm, non-threatening environment in which questions are encouraged.  Ensure that the chain of Jewish tradition does not end with you. 

Challenge yourself, Empower yourself.  Enrich yourself.

"If I forget you, o Jerusalem, let my right hand lose its dexterity.  Let my tongue stick to my palate if I do not mention you; If I do not elevate you above my greatest joy."  Psalm 137
