ItzaMitzvah October 30, 2006

Wednesday, November 1, 7:00 pm.

Last month's gathering was well attended and provoked some interesting conversations on everything from halacha to eco-kashrut.

Itza Mitzvah, a monthly caffeinated conversation with Rabbi Zedek about the universe, life and living as a Jew. Each month, the group will discuss a different mitzvah, or commandment, from our tradition, this month Keeping Shabbat. We will explore the written and oral sources, the traditional observance, and then discuss how or why a modern Jew may, or may not, observe it.

We meet at 7:00 p.m. the first Wednesday of the month at The Fixx Coffee Bar, located at 3053 North Sheffield in Chicago. Although this discussion is sponsored by Loosely Defined (an Emanuel social roup) and JewishFringe.com, which are oriented towards Jews in heir 20s, 30s and 40s, all are welcome.
