WHAT IS A MOISHE HOUSE IMMERSIVE JEWISH EXPERIENCE?At a Moishe House Immersive Jewish Experience, you can expect everything from group study to singalongs to friendship. We believe in creating a space to ask the most pressing spiritual questions of our lives. We recognize that many of us didn’t grow up leading Jewish programs and rituals and now seek to find our own meaning in them. Through experiential and participatory learning, our dynamic team of educators inspires with the ritual skills and training necessary to inspire others back home. Our Retreats are significantly subsidized thanks to the generosity of our funders. We convene at high-quality retreat centers throughout the U.S. and bring seasoned, credentialed Jewish educators to teach on a range of topics. Our goal is to give you knowledge and skills that will help you create innovative programming for your Jewish communities at home. People come to Moishe House with many different experiences of Jewish life. Moishe House is committed to making everyone feel welcome and making it known that they are an important part of the conversation despite the level of their Jewish knowledge, experience, or affiliation with any movement. We do our best to accommodate participants’ needs, including Shomer Shabbat, dietary restrictions and beyond as needed.

Food can represent many things. Not only is it a necessary form of sustenance, but it can also evoke sensations such as familiarity, intimacy, pain, and nostalgia. In the case of the Jewish people, food can also carry deep symbolism linked to spiritual and historical lessons, as well as bear the marks of centuries of happy and painful history at the same time, of diversity and deep existential dilemmas. |
