Welcome to Nevei Kodesh Religious School
Your journey of connection, discovery and joyous Judaism 
Sharing embodied spirituality through knowledge and experiences creates an adventure. One deeply rooted in values, wisdom from the centuries and the beautiful feeling of belonging to something bigger than ourselves. It stirs from a place that inspires questions, thoughts and cultivates joyous Judaism, both personally and collectively. Our community models inclusivity and our new Religious School programming shares the opportunity for beautiful discovery, the ability to shine as our unique selves and be a part of a community experience where everyone matters.
Registration for our 2019-2020 school year will open on August 1, 2019
class openings and placement are available on a first come, first serve basis
We welcome you to come and join our Nevei family! Browse through our Religious School pages on this site or contact our Director of Family Life, Brooke Fisher to learn more.

Dec 12Psalms - Brown Bag Series with Rabbi Diane Tiferet
Thursday, Dec 12th 12:00p to 1:00p
Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi believed deeply that each of us have the capacity to communicate directly with God, yet often we are at a loss as to where to begin. What better place to begin our collective search than with our age-old prayers, the psalms (tehillim) of the Hebrew Bible?* This lunchtime brown bag series will explore four different psalms as a way into both a deeper understanding of the Jewish traditional texts and a deeper appreciation of our own souls’ yearnings. Over the centuries, the redactors of our prayer books (siddurim) have chosen particular psalms as part of the standardized liturgy, and Jewish Renewal has highlighted and elevated others through chants and songs. And yet there is so much more to uncover! We will begin our exploration this fall with Psalm 81, the psalm sung in Jerusalem by the Levites on Thursdays. In the next two sessions, we will turn our attention to Psalm 40 – a relatively unknown psalm – and Psalm 23 – a classic psalm of comfort. At our fourth meeting, we will discuss Psalm 30, traditionally associated with Chanuka, and also often recited as part of the morning liturgy. Ideally, we will come to build a sense of community through our sustained exploration of different psalms together over time. I also pray that our engagement with a variety of psalms will offer you a window into the tremendous richness to be found in these traditional texts of prayer. *No Hebrew is required. The texts will be provided both in Hebrew and in traditional and alternative English translations, including those of Rebbe Zalman himself. -
