Download Women's Study Day Schedule, June 2006
The National Masorti Women’s Study Days unite 300 to 400 women, a couple times
a year, for a day of study, prayer and social interaction. The seminars are
organized as a joint project of the Women’s League for Conservative Judaism,
the Masorti Movement and the Schechter Institute for Jewish Studies.
Women, including Masorti rabbis and faculty of the Schechter Institute, as well
as members of various Masorti congregations, give all lectures. An interesting
feature of the Study Days is that there are various tracks for the studiers
to choose from, including lectures in Hebrew, English, Russian and Spanish.
In this way, the Study Days appeal to a wide range of women, attracting many
olot hadashot – new immigrant women.
The Study Days help integrate new immigrants with old-timers in the Masorti
kehillot, as well as empower women to positively influence Israeli
society.
