Hilkhot Tefilah - Digging into the Practice of Prayer and How, Where, and Why Jews Pray

Hilkhot Tefilah - Digging into the Practice of Prayer and How, Where, and Why Jews Pray

Sundays, January 5-April 3, 10-11:30am in person and on Zoom (no class 2/2 or 3/23); Tuition: $108; Register Here

Join Rabbi Arielle in a text-based exploration of the halakha of prayer. Focusing on texts about prayer from Rambam's Mishneh Torah, this class is an opportunity to learn about our tradition's takes on prayer. We will ask each other big questions about why we do what we do and what kind of prayer life we dream of - for ourselves and our community. No Hebrew skills necessary...but an interest in prayer, prayer leadership and soulful exploration of the meaning of prayer in 5785 a must!

“I no longer know how to light the fire”: Jewish Ritual Innovation at the Seder Table (Copy)

Tuition: $72, scholarships available, Teacher: Rabbi Joey; 4 Wednesdays from 3/26 - 4/16 @ 12:00pm, Register here

Throughout our history, Jews have responded to existential and moral crises, ranging from the Spanish inquisition to the Vietnam War, with ritual innovation. This innovation has often blossomed at the Seder table, with Jews shaping and reshaping their Passover Seders to speak to their fears and hopes. In this four-part lunch and learn, we’ll study historic transformations in the Haggadah while considering what rituals, stories, and dreams we might bring to our Passover table this year.

Pre-Pesach Shabbat Dinner for Trans People & Their Families

Shabbat is a joyful respite, a shelter from intense and busy weeks. Shabbat dinner can be part of the gateway into Shabbat’s holiness - a space to relax, make new connections, and share our love for one another. Join us for a special Shabbat dinner for trans people & their families on Friday April 11th before Shabbat services. We’ll center trans joy and nourishment and eat, get to know each other, and welcome one another into Shabbat. We invite people to arrive between 5:00 and 5:30 and we'll begin eating together at 5:30. Shabbat services start at 6:30. This gathering is for you, your family members, and your kiddos. All trans people and their family members are welcome! We’ll provide dinner, Shabbat ritual, and a space to connect and be together. 

We’ll eat together in the oneg hall with multiple air purifiers running. If you don’t feel comfortable eating inside with other people, you are still welcome to join masked and take a shabbat dinner portion home with you. 

Please register here before April 8th, so we can be sure there is enough food! If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out to Jayce at jayce@shirtikvahmn.org

We need volunteer support to make this meal happen! You can sign up here to help cook or clean up - all materials, needs, and information will be supplied!

“I no longer know how to light the fire”: Jewish Ritual Innovation at the Seder Table

Tuition: $72, scholarships available, Teacher: Rabbi Joey; 4 Wednesdays from 3/26 - 4/16 @ 12:00pm, Register here

Throughout our history, Jews have responded to existential and moral crises, ranging from the Spanish inquisition to the Vietnam War, with ritual innovation. This innovation has often blossomed at the Seder table, with Jews shaping and reshaping their Passover Seders to speak to their fears and hopes. In this four-part lunch and learn, we’ll study historic transformations in the Haggadah while considering what rituals, stories, and dreams we might bring to our Passover table this year.

Project Esther: What it is? and what we can do about it?

Project Esther: What it is? and what we can do about it?

March 11, 2025; 6:00pm; Register Here

The new Presidential administration has already implemented several items from The Heritage Foundation's “Project Esther,” written by the same authors as Project 2025, aimed at limiting free speech under the guise of combating antisemitism.

What is 'Project Esther'? How does it impact our communities? And what can we do about it? Join the Shir Tikvah and Jewish Community Action conversation with Dove Kent to learn more and take action!

Dove Kent has two decades of experience in grassroots organizing, political education, and movement building. Dove served as the Executive Director of Jews for Racial & Economic Justice from 2011 until 2017, and later as the Senior Strategy Officer at Bend the Arc: A Jewish Partnership for Justice, organizing Jews across the country against the far right. She is a co-founder of Tzedek Lab, a national network of Jewish political education trainers, organizers, and spiritual leaders established to build collective competency to politicize, transform, and inspire the Jewish community into collective action against racism, antisemitism, and white supremacy.
