Tikkun Leil Shavuot - Jewish By Choice: All Community Night of Study and Celebration on the first night of Shavuot
Saturday, June 8, 2019 • 5 Sivan 5779
7:00 PM - 4:00 AM Next DayNevei Kodesh, 1925 Glenwood DriveIt is a tradition on Shavuot to gather and study throughout the first night, as a way of receiving the Torah anew. In Boulder, we are blessed to gather with the entire Jewish community, our study facilitated by Haver, Boulder's Rabbinic Council.
This year's theme is "Jewish By Choice." We will hear from those who have been through a formal process of conversion, as well as from Boulder's rabbis and Jewish teachers, reflecting on the nature of covenant and exploring what it means both to choose and to be “chosen."
Sponsored by Haver - Boulder's Rabbinic Council - and Congregation Nevei Kodesh
