This Week at Virtual KE - Congregation Kol Emeth

Home

Virtual Kol Emeth

Kol Emeth is back in person! But as we've learned from the past few years, for health and accessibility it makes a really big difference to have some of our programming available online. We now offer hybrid services and a mix of virtual, hybrid, and in-person events.

Please note that all of these events use the Zoom platform. If you have not already downloaded Zoom Client for Meetings onto your computer, it will be best to do so before joining these groups. Zoom links are available once logged in and are also shared in the Monday email.

If you need assistance, please contact us.

Sunday, Feb 23rd 10:00a to 11:30a

Are you wondering about the larger picture and connections? Want to dive deeper into the various stories, characters, and themes? Then, this is the class for you! We will meet most Sunday mornings (unless it conflicts with other Adult Ed or holiday events). February dates are Sunday the 11th and 18th.

"Family Stories Are Us" Writing Your Story with Esther Erman
Wednesday, Feb 26th 12:00p to 1:00p
There are lots of ways to record our stories—and lots of ways to procrastinate. KE member and published writer, Esther Erman, will lead a four-part writers' workshop series on Zoom to gather, share stories, and encourage each other to record our family stories, for now and the future. Join us to look at questions, concerns, and different methods—and unleash your creativity! Participants will be encouraged to form pairs or small groups to work together. Esther will be available to offer support between classes.
