Community Learning

While Kol Rinah's building is still mostly closed to the public, our learning is thriving online! For easy access to Zoom links and passwords to any of the following events, Kol Rinah members can log into their Kol Rinah website account and look for "Zoom Links" under "My Account." Zoom links to upcoming events are also sent out in weekly emails from the synagogue. Non-members are welcome to join our Zoom-based Community Learning events; they can call the Kol Rinah office at 314-727-1747 or email communitylearning@kolrinahstl.org to request the relevant links.

Torah Talk features study and discussion of the week's Torah portion and is led by either Rabbi Arnow or Rabbi Shafrin. Torah Talk takes place every Friday at noon.

Two book clubs meet monthly (and currently on Zoom): the Kol Rinah/B'nai Amoona Jewish Book Club, on the 4th Thursday of the month, and the Kol Rinah Jewish Sci-Fi & Fantasy Book Club, on the 1st Monday of the month. New members are welcome any time!

On Wednesday evenings in June and July, beginning June 16, our rabbis are teaching a series of classes on Machloket: The Soul of a Jewish Debate. Each session can be attended separately.

Zoom and Learn programs, covering a wide range of Jewish subjects and taught by experts both inside and outside our congregation, take place on Sundays.  On June 27 at 4pm (Central Time), scholar Noam Sienna will discuss his groundbreaking anthology, A Rainbow Thread: An Anthology of Queer Jewish Texts from the First Century to 1969.  Please join us for "Spinning A Rainbow Thread: Reflections on Writing Queer Jewish History."

And don't forget our Verein Discussion Group's "Judaism and Science" series, usually on the third Sunday of the month. Their next meeting is currently scheduled for July 11.

Please contact Kol Rinah with any questions about our programs!
