January 21, 2023 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
"Tearing and Sewing, Loss and Repair" Jewish tradition invites us to tear a garment (kriyah) when we hear about the death of a loved one. Less known, we are invited to sew the garment again in the year that follows. In this session, we'll reflect how our community did kriyah at Rabbi Sager's funeral and what it might mean for us to do the work of repair as we move forward with memory.
