    Back to School Bagels in the Park
    Sunday, Aug 25th 9:30a to 11:30a
    Celebrate the last days of summer with us as we kick-off the start to Sunday School at this free, all-ages family event. Students and parents will enjoy being outdoors together — playing on the playground and fields (with frisbees, balls, etc) and chatting about summer break. Bagel brunch will be provided for everyone (including gluten-free). We welcome non-members to join us — there is no charge and no commitment with this event. Rabbi Adam Chalom, the Youth Education Director, B Mitzvah Coordinator and Sunday School teachers will be there to answer questions about our education program and congregation. Questions — Ilana Shaffer (youthed@KolHadash.com, 773-209-8266)

    Is a B Mitzvah Right for Your Family? B Mitzvah FAQ Session for Parents
    Thursday, Aug 29th 7:30p to 8:30p
    Are you debating how (or whether) to seek a Bar or Bat Mitzvah for your child? Are you feeling pressure because “how it’s supposed to be” and “how it’s always been done” isn’t a good fit for your family? Are you concerned that non-Jewish family members might not be allowed to participate fully? Are you looking for a custom celebration that will be both personal and meaningful, balancing Jewish traditions and your unique family heritage? Follow this link for an event flyer.
