From Rabbi Faith Joy Dantowitz, 7/13/ 2012

My time in Israel has been filled with rich learning, from ancient and modern texts as well as individuals. I've found it particularly sweet to deepen and build new friendships with many women colleagues here as I shared in this posting (reprinted below) for the Women's Rabbinic Network on July 13.

I’m feeling many connections to women colleagues while studying at the Hartman Institute’s Rabbinic Seminar this July in Israel.

So Much Halvah

What an exciting trip to Machaneh Yehuda, the shuk or market last Friday morning.

From Rabbi Dantowitz, Jerusalem, June 28, 2012

After a long hiatus, it’s so good to be back in Israel. Soon after I arrived at Newark airport Tuesday evening, I bumped into two colleagues who were going to Israel for the same reason. For a couple of weeks in July, I will be studying at the Hartman Institute Rabbinic Seminar http://www.hartman.org.il/. Over one hundred rabbis will join together for this rich learning opportunity. This will be my first time attending the seminar which is held every summer.
