Join us for A Taste of Resetting the Table, with Eyal Rabinovitch: We will introduce participants to a few core principles and one key skill to support conversations across political divides/disagreements, especially on contentious issues.
Part 1 – What’s next?? Rosalie will facilitate a conversation about what the next emergent questions are around hybrid worship. How will we define success and what might it look like? Where are the opportunities and pitfalls we can consider with our leadership? What did we learn before and during the Holy Days that can inform our thinking?
