The Introduction to Judaism course will meet  from 4:00-6:00 most Sundays from October 16th to May 7th and will include 30 minutes of Hebrew instruction and 90 minutes of discussion and instruction on a different topic each week. This is course is intended to be an introduction to Reform Judaism and its beliefs, practices, traditions, values, history, texts, and community. Through reading a variety of essays, hearing from guest speakers, and discussing our own experiences, students will have the opportunity to understand the basics of living a meaningful Jewish life while also exploring the complexities and challenges thereof. This course is open to all, regardless of knowledge level about or experience with Judaism. There is a $324 registration fee for non-members*. This course is free for Temple Members. 

Adult Hebrew will meet from 4:00-4:45 most Sundays from October 23rd to May 7th. Regular optional drop-in sessions will also be scheduled for additional practice. Students will learn the Hebrew Alphabet, become proficient readers, and learn important prayer vocab. Only Temple members can register (free of charge) for this course by itself. Non-Temple Members must register for Introduction to Judaism and will get Hebrew as a part of that class. 

*If paying the $324 charge to participate in the class posses financial difficulty to you/your family, please do not hesitate to reach out to Temple administrator Bob Bennett at bbennett@tbiokc.net to work out a payment plan.
