Adult Engagement
The direction of Jewish Adult Education is changing at Community Synagogue of Rye.
Jewish education is about comprehending our history, but it is also about enriching our soul and challenging our mind through Judaism. How can we enhance our lives and make our relationships stronger? How do we find meaning in the events of the day and the world? How do we become active learners and meaningful participants in our lives?
This takes life-long learning. And this is the promise of our current course offerings for adults: No matter what your level of understanding is, you surely will appreciate our stimulating arena of thought, analysis, inspiration, and dynamic group dialogue.
Our Continuing Education program includes lectures, trips, classes on Jewish education, and special programs with other synagogues. Ever year, the synagogue also sponsors a Scholar-in-Residence weekend that is enjoyed by the entire membership.
