SUMMARY:Mizrahi Shabbat Dinner: Journeys\, Stories\, and Shared Tables with the Den
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Shabbat evening of storytelling\, reflection\, learning\, and delicious homemade food as we explore the many journeys that have shaped Jewish life across generations.\nInspired by the week’s Torah portion\, Parashat Matot-Masei\, and the theme of journey\, we’ll gather around the table to reflect on the paths that brought us here: our own journeys\, our families’ stories\, and the rich histories of Jewish communities around the world. Together\, we’ll consider what it means to belong to a people whose story spans continents\, cultures\, and centuries. \nWe’ll also explore the vibrant history of Mizrahi Jewish communities and the many places Jews have called home throughout history\, from Baghdad to Casablanca and beyond. Through conversation and shared learning\, we’ll broaden our understanding of Jewish life while honoring the diverse experiences that continue to shape our community today. \nAlong the way\, we’ll enjoy a homemade Shabbat meal\, including fresh pita made from scratch\, creating space for meaningful conversation\, curiosity\, and connection around the table. \nWhether you’re interested in Jewish history\, family stories\, cultural traditions\, or simply sharing a warm Shabbat meal in community\, we’d love to have you join us. \nNo experience necessary. Everyone is welcome. This gathering will take place in Maryland. Specific location and additional details will be shared with registrants after the registration deadline. \n \nAccommodations: None \n \nOrganization: The Den Collective \n \nLivestream or Virtual: No\, it’s not
