Finding Resilience, Healing and Purpose: The Jewish Wisdom and Traditions That Carry Us Through

On Monday, September 8, our community will welcome an acclaimed speaker who will be visiting to talk about her story of finding faith and inspiration in Jewish rituals. The speaker’s name is Elissa Felder and she runs the CORE Chevra Kadisha/Mitaheret community – a network of hundreds of women across the globe who all perform teharos. Elissa’s personal story has inspired many across the world, through her book and her speaking engagements, and we are very lucky to have her here in Dallas. She even recently talked about her story on the well-known 18Forty podcast – https://18forty.org/podcast/elissa-felder-sonia-hoffman-how-the-jewish-burial-society-cares-for-the-dead/
The event is endorsed by community rabbanim and is an effort to promote support for Jewish burial, a critical issue even here in the DFW area.
