SUMMARY:Be Breathed: An Ivri Evening of Mystical Ritual
DESCRIPTION:Be Breathed: An Ivri Evening of Mystical Ritual\nfor Tu B’av\nMonday\, July 27th\n7:00-9:30pm EST\nBROOKLYN*\nJust before Tu B’Av — the Jewish festival of love — we gather for an evening of resonance\, presence\, and connection. Guided by Rabbi Jericho Vincent of Temple of the Stranger and Spiritual Leader Shira Kline of Lab/Shul\, we will enter a shared field of chant\, breath\, and embodied ritual. \nThrough ancient melodies\, contemplative practice\, and participatory ceremony\, we’ll create space to soften\, listen\, and remember. \nThis gathering is an invitation to be carried by sound\, to connect with yourself and others\, and to step into the mysterious terrain that Tu B’Av opens: the possibility of love\, belonging\, longing\, and encounter. Ivri is our most ancient communal name\, Hebrew for “one who crosses over.” It is also term we use to describe a growing movement of Jews reclaiming ancestral practices\, cultivating new forms of embodied ritual\, and exploring spiritual life rooted in our lineage. \nShira and Rabbi Jericho are two of the incredible spiritual leaders in this nascent movement. \nNo prior experience is necessary. Come as you are\, leave as even more of yourself✨ \nThis space is a collaborative weaving of Temple of the Stranger\, Lab/Shul\, OpenLev\, and Space and Magic. \n*Private location to be provided upon registration. \nLearn More & Register >\nPlease note: Partiful RSVP does not guarantee entree — Venmo and receive confirmation to claim your spot

SUMMARY:Judaism: Born Divided? / Below the Bible Belt 2
DESCRIPTION: Judaism: Born Divided? Below the Bible Belt 2\nTwelve Tribes of Israel – Fact or Fiction??\nSunday April 19\nLIVE | ONLINE\n\nWhen Did “Israel” Begin? The twelve tribes of Israel  —fact of fiction\, solid history or made-up myth? \nIt’s a fascinating mystery that deeply matters to who and what the people of Israel are really all about – today\, worldwide.\nOur fourth monthly session of Judaism:  Born Divided traces tribal truths\, well guarded secrets and surprising stories about siblings that never existed\, family ties that forged not one but two kingdoms\, brutal battles that tore them apart\, and the power of political stories that solidify claims to power despite disputes and different narratives. Tracing the twelve tribes reveals how Judean editors rewrote history—and how recovering suppressed northern models might expand our imagination for pluralistic Jewish peoplehood today. \nJoin for a close reading of biblical texts in conversation with archeology and critical history\, including Finkelstein’s The Forgotten Kingdom\, Avrum Burg’s “Israel Should Triumph Over Judah\,” and Shira Golani’s ‘The Two Blessings of the Twelve Tribes’. \nRead this prior to LIVE program \n\n***Lab/Shul Partners receive 50% off monthly/annual subscriptions***\nPartners click here to subscribe > \nBelow the Bible Belt Part 2 is an online Study Course with Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie. How the origin story of our forgotten feud can help direct us from discord and schism to diversity and pluralism. (January–December 2026) | More Info  \n

SUMMARY:ReCollect/Yizkor
DESCRIPTION:ReCollect/Yizkor: Passover\nThursday\, April 9th\n12pm ET\nOnline\n\n\nSpring brings a season of memory – collective memory in the Passover story where the Jewish people left Egypt\, but there was much loss along the way. Passover is the second of three ancient pilgrimage holidays when collective community gathers to remember (Yizkor). We will gather at the end of Passover to reflect on the holiday and connect to our memories. \n*NOTE: this will take the place of Virtual Kaddish that week. \nLab/Shul’s ReCollect/Yizkor is a seasonal gathering to remember our loved ones\, share stories\, lift memory\, and say Kaddish\, the ancient memorial prayer\, together. Throughout the year\, ReCollect meets near or on the times of memory (Yizkor) on the Jewish calendar (Yom Kippur\, Sukkot\, Passover and Shavuot). \nWhether you’ve experienced a recent loss\, are remembering a loved one who passed long ago\, or showing up in support of community\, you are welcome here. Together\, we acknowledge feelings of loss that can be particularly painful as we anticipate empty chairs at our tables and holes in our hearts. \n\nRegister here >
