JEWISH SPIRITUAL LITERACY INC
Our mission is to foster a paradigm shift in spiritual and moral education towards an experiential pedagogy that provides students with a spiritual vision relevant to their daily lives. We create seminars, curricula and other materials for both formal and informal learning, and innovative teaching methods for spiritual and moral educators of all backgrounds. Our programs include:
Torah Health and Wellness – a book, a multi-media website, workshops and seminars
Jewish Teachers Institute – training and mentoring for Jewish day schools
Zoom Talmud – online communities around a shared intellectual pursuit
Love Your Neighbor – recruiting and training families to visit isolated elderly
The Art of Amazement – a popular seminar on the basics of Jewish spirituality
The Amazing Jewish Fact-a-Day Calendar – an educational app
Backyard Bar Mitzvah - a meaningful rite of passage for all who desire to participate
Our program evaluations indicate that over ninety percent of participants are inspired to seek further learning opportunities; to forge a warm, lasting connection to a spiritual or ethical community; and to lead ethical, fulfilling lives that contribute to Tikkun Olam (repairing the world).
