Ohr Kodesh looks to engage all members - from our Early Childhood Center (ECC) and the Alvin Browdy Religious School (ABRS) to an array of Adult Jewish Education opportunities, including ongoing classes on Jewish texts and Family and Women's Retreats, films and lectures.
Our Commitment to Learning
OKC's dedication to learning is exemplified by our engagement as a community in the study of a single concept or question - in all its complexities and diversity of viewpoints - for a full year.
This year our Learning Theme is Sacred Connections.
ובצאתי לקראתך – לקראתי מצאתיך
“And when I went out towards You, I found You coming towards me.” Rabbi Yehudah HaLevi
The Medieval poet, Rabbi Yehudah HaLevi, once taught that the search for meaning, connection, and belonging happens when “I go out towards You, and find You coming towards me.”
Join us as we study together and explore the many sacred connections - past, present and future - that make OKC a special community. Come and learn with us.
