Walking the Path of Peace, Blessing, & Justice

Kol Ami invites you to walk the path of peace & justice throughout the Jewish Year! Each month our community explores a shared theme - from climate and water justice to mental health and education equity - through study, reflection, and hands-on action. With parallel programs for adults, teens, and families - and the whole community together - we'll learn, serve, and grow as we bring Jewish wisdom to life in our world.

Adult Program – Walking the Path of Peace and Justice

📅 First Thursday of each month, October–June | 🕖 7:00 PM | 💻 Zoom
