Sara & Samuel J. Lessans Adult Learning Institute
Welcome to B’nai Israel and our Adult Education program. At B’nai Israel, learning is a hallmark of our congregational culture. Parents and other adults participate in our classes to model the ethic of ongoing Jewish learning and to stimulate their minds and souls. We are committed to teaching Judaism as a thriving religion, at once relevant to our modern lives and enlightened by our ancient texts.
We offer a rich array of adult education programs in a variety of formats—from single lectures, to book clubs, to mini-mesters and courses of study that last a year or more. Whether you are new to Judaism or looking to deepen a lifetime of knowledge, you can grow at any age at B’nai Israel.
