Community Sunday
With a Difference

Once a month, the Peretz Centre will hold an adult discussion group on a topic of interest to secular, humanistic and cultural Jews. At the same time, you are invited to bring your younger child, ages 5 to 7 (with advance notice), to join our Sunday school class for a fun and stimulating, age-appropriate activity related to a Jewish cultural theme. Some months, a pot luck lunch may follow the discussion.

Schedule:

October 30, 10:30 "How to be Good," based on an article with that title in the September 5 issue of the New Yorker. Led by Colin Nicol-Smith.
November 27, 10:30

Discussion based on Burdens of Proof: Faith, Doubt and Identity in Autobiography,by Susanna Egan. Led by Seemah Berson.
