The traditional, Jewish response to learning that someone is expecting a child is “B’sha’ah Tovah,” which literally means “at a good hour” but is understood to mean “may everything go well and happen at the right time.” 

Shaare Emeth will present “B’sha’ah Tovah: A Class for Expecting Parents,” from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Feb. 11. The class will provide opportunities to connect with other expecting parents and to explore both traditional and contemporary ways that Judaism can add meaning to every stage of the journey to parenthood – from anticipating to welcoming to celebrating. B’sha’ah Tovah is open to Shaare Emeth members and to the community.
