Participate in this mitzvah led by congregant and former restaurant owner Gail Laghi, and congregant and chef Sari Swig. Gail and Sari have volunteered to run a two-hour cooking session with up to six congregant volunteers to make meals for congregants in need, either facing a recent illness, death, or birth. All congregants are welcome to join. Menu, ingredients, and storage containers are provided.
The Stories of Your Life: A Guided Autobiography and Life Review Writing Group
Occurring monthly on Mondays
10:00 am – noon, Congregation Emanu-El
No charge
May 7, 2017- Room 53
Join our ongoing group of adult peers to explore, share and preserve your unique life in writing. Get to know yourself and others better. The stories are more important than the writing, so don’t worry about skill level. Past topics have included: Your bucket list, Friendships, Pets I have Loved, and Gifts Received. The writing is done at home and shared in class in a safe and structured way. Our friendly group welcomes newcomers. Facilitated by fellow congregant, Nancy Alpert, LCSW.
New participants are always welcome! To register contact Rebecca Reiner.
