Rabbi, Am I Cleared for Takeoff? Planespotting with a Jewish Twist

Eitan Okrent 

Hotel Lobby

Ever had a Sky Mitzvah before? Well this is the perfect chance! Join us as we stand next to the runway at Birmingham airport with huge jets blasting over our heads at 160mph. A chance for you to take-off on your Jewish journey as we learn what the Torah says about aviation. It may be cold, wet and windy so dress appropriately. Transport will be provided.

Transitions! Transitions! A Peek Behind the Curtain of Prayer Leadership

Billy Jonas  Eliana Light 

Red 7

Songs and prayers are wonderful, but the ways we fill in / move through the spaces between them can make or break a tefilah experience. Silence and sound, invitation and reflection, embodiment and props, silliness and soul – so many tools to make prayer accessible and meaningful. Let’s get to know the unsung hero of our services, the transition!
