Adult Events

Shalom Beth Am Family,

In a time gone by in Jewish history when we lived in shtetls, the community would gather around the Rabbi’s table to discuss Jewish issues and problems. All of the souls around the table brought patience, understanding and wisdom in the spirit of learning from one another. This gathering was called The Rabbi’s Table, but it was more commonly known by its Yiddish translation - The Rebbe’s Tisch (pronounced REH-bee’s Tish).

I think it is time for us to revive this sacred gathering.  

Beginning on Wednesday, June 2nd at noon, and Thursday, June 3rd at 7:30 PM, we will have our first installments of The Rebbe’s Tisch (The Rabbi’s Table). Basically, this program creates a special place for people to come together and share their thoughts on what is happening in the world and in their Jewish lives. For many of us, we may not feel comfortable voicing our views about these things in our work environments or social spheres for one reason or another. The Rebbe’s Tisch gives you that opportunity to share your thoughts freely and without judgment. Whether it is COVID fears, reopening concerns, Antisemitism, Anti-Zionism, or you just long for some discussion with others, The Rebbe’s Tisch is your home.

Initially, this program will be virtual, but my hope is that soon we will gather outdoors/indoors while also providing an online option for those who need it. I hope you will join me around my virtual table for community, connection, and understanding on June 2nd and/or June 3rd.

B'shalom, 
Rabbi Robbie

Race and Faith
Thursday, November 7th at 7:00 PM
First Presbyterian Church
Talking about race relations is hard. Finding a safe place to talk about race is even harder. Though the obstacles can be great, discussing race is perhaps one of the most important discussions that we should be having as a modern American society.

Additionally, faith communities have a special bond and a special way of looking at the world. Because of the importance of race and because of our connection to one another as faith communities, the Interfaith Council of Yorktown, in connection with Race Amity, has put together this multi-evening series to help the faith communities of Westchester dialogue about this important topic. This last evening will explore a different aspect of race. Any friend of yours who is connected to a church, mosque, synagogue or other house of worship is invited to attend our final gathering. This evening will be facilitated not only by clergy but also by professionals who have a deep understanding of race and its effects on our society. Come be a part of this extremely important and timely final session.
