CSZ Welcomes the Metropolitan Detroit Conservative Jewish Community to the Berman Center for Jewish Education for an evening of pre-High Holy Day learning with rabbis and educators from around the community for two exciting and inspiring sessions of Torah learning!

•    Rabbi Bergman - Living Your Highest Values at Your Worst Moments - The Life and Teachings of Rabbi Akiva 
•    Rabbi Gamer - Elijah and Teshuva

Awake, awake, you sleepers from your slumber! The great Jewish philosopher Maimonides captured the spirit of preparing for the High Holy Days beautifully with these words. Elul is our chance to wake up, to prepare ourselves for the days to come, and to attune our minds and our hearts to the things that matter most.
