Congregation Shomrei Torah is pleased to offer an “Introduction to Judaism” course in two phases, beginning on Sunday, October 3rd, 2021 at 3:00 PM. The first series will run for 9 weeks and will be taught by Rabbi Cheryl Rosenstein, a member of Shomrei Torah and Rabbi Emerita of Temple Beth El in Bakersfield, CA, where she has served for twenty-six years. Classes will meet at Congregation Shomrei Torah for 75 minutes.  The second series will begin in mid-January, 2022.

Included in the lectures and discussion will be the basic elements of Judaism, with emphasis on the Jewish holidays, the synagogue service and the practical aspects of observing Judaism.  All are welcome to attend; it does not matter whether you wish for a refresher in Judaism, are “just curious” or if you are a candidate for conversion or marriage. Members and non-members are invited.

 

Rabbi Cheryl Rosenstein, a member of Shomrei Torah, is Rabbi Emerita of Temple Beth El in Bakersfield, CA, where she served for twenty-six years.  

Prior to that time, she was the Assistant Rabbi at Mount Zion Temple in St Paul, MN, where she first fell in love with teaching Introduction to Judaism.   A product of Long Beach, California, she earned her bachelor’s degree in sociology at the University of California, Santa Barbara and received her ordination at the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in 1990.  

Rabbi Rosenstein is a lifelong Reform Jew, a mother of two twenty-something children, a lover of yoga, Mussar and dark chocolate, and a past president of the Pacific Association of Reform Rabbis.  After many years of service on the faculty of Camp Newman, she and her husband, Rick, relocated to her “happy place” here in Santa Rosa in July of 2019, and happily joined Congregation Shomrei Torah.
