Sizeism in a World of "Likes" and Social Pressure
Monday, Jan 24th 7:00p to 9:00p
Size has a visual component that people can make an immediate judgment about and as such, size remains one of the most targeted identities. What exactly is sizeism and why is it one of the 9 identities that National Conference for Community and Justice (NCCJ) focuses on? Join us as we explore the many facets of this controversial topic and the stigmas that surround body image and size. NCCJ's mission is to promote inclusion and acceptance by providing education and advocacy while building communities that are respectful and just for all. They are changing the world by changing our communities, one mind at a time. Click in for details!

Morning Minyan & the World Wide Wrap with Men's Club!
Sunday, Feb 13th 8:45a to 9:30a
We invite you to join us for the mitzvah of wrapping tefillin in a minyan service. This will be followed by a special tefillin program and prayers with Rabbi Zerin where we can learn about tefillin: how it is made, why we wear it, the value of wearing it, and of course, how to wrap it. Breakfast will follow. Click in for details! All our welcome in person; please see bethelwesthartford.org/coronavirus for details and protocols. Each minyan includes Kaddish for those in mourning and those observing yahrzeit and incorporates some English readings. We read Torah on Monday and Thursday mornings, as well as on Rosh Chodesh (the new month). At each service we read a list of names of those loved ones for whom yahrzeit is being observed. Our minyans are very welcoming to those who are saying Kaddish or simply want to sit in the comfort of a prayer community.
