June 11 at 7:30 p.m. - The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker

Join us on zoom June 11 at 7:30 p.m. for a lively discussion of the Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker.
This fantasy novel is historical fiction, and takes place in New York in 1899. It covers the themes of Judaism, finding your niche in a new place, and friendship. It is available in print, e-book, and audiobook formats.
Our four day Northeast District Convention in March was AMAZING! It was nice to feel like we were getting back to the warmth and joy of having an in-person convention. Special thanks go to convention chair Michelle Rosen and the MANY committees for creating such an incredible weekend. Betty Weiner organized a very successful YES Fund luncheon and online auction. From services to learning sessions to chocolate tasting to meals to just being together, the weekend felt magical. We had several special guests from both the WRJ North American board and the WRJ main office. Special thanks to our guest for the weekend, Judy Wexler - WRJ VP, and to our fantastic spiritual and musical guest, Rabbi Deborah Zecher. We had many new attendees with us for the convention and were so happy to get to know them. We were also proud to have both WRJ Executive Director - Rabbi Marla Feldman and WRJ President Sara Charney who both just happen to be Northeast District members.
