SUMMARY:Parenting Book Club: Nurture the Wow
DESCRIPTION:As a first-time mom\, Rabbi Megdal is discovering how Jewish wisdom speaks to the joys and challenges of parenting small children. You are invited to join her for a fun and meaningful book club\, as we read Nurture the Wow: Finding Spirituality in the Frustration\, Boredom\, Tears\, Poop\, Desperation\, Wonder\, and Radical Amazement of Parenting. She is excited to explore this book together and learn from each other. We will meet at 9:30 am on the first Thursday of the month\, starting on October 1. Gatherings will start with a few minutes of coffee\, snacks\, and schmoozing\, followed by 45 minutes (we’re busy!) on one short chapter each month. Didn’t finish? Come anyway. We’ll make time to think\, laugh\, learn some Torah\, and talk with other parents who are figuring it out too.\nFree to attend. Register\, then pick up the book as a gift from Rabbi Megdal in her office Tues-Fri mornings (except holidays). Take a peek at the TOC here. \n
