Mussar 101

Join us for Mussar 101, an introduction to the Jewish practice of ethical and spiritual growth. Through accessible teachings, guided reflection, and practical tools, we’ll explore how Mussar helps us cultivate qualities like compassion, humility, gratitude, and courage in everyday life. No prior experience or text knowledge is needed—just curiosity and a willingness to grow. Rabbi Robin Foonberg began her career in Jewish education in 1994.
