Each salon will discuss the article “Pausing at the Doorpost; New Meaning for the Mezuzah.” from Lilith magazine.  This article reflects on coming to terms with our Jewish self and our relationship to our families, community and to God. The article also looks at ritual items such as the mezuzah and how it can be a tool on one’s spiritual journey.

Suggested donation for each salon is $15.  Register online at www.nishmah.org or contact Director Sara Winkelman at 314-442-3268 or [email protected].
