It's the paradox of our times- The more conveniences we have, the less time we have. We live in the era of microwave cooking, home shopping and the Internet. We have achieved a level of efficiency and productivity our grandparents couldn't picture in their wildest dreams. Yet, in their worst nightmares, our grandparents never imagined being so pressured or pressed for time. This state of perpetual acceleration is destroying us. It frays our nerves, distances us from our friends and interrupts our family lives. Which is why more and more Jewish men and women escape each week to another world. It's a world which puts them in touch with some eternal truths ... Challenges their minds through profound give-and-take... and gives them a healthy perspective on life's priorities. This other world is Partners in Torah. And it can do you a world of good. Perhaps you didn't benefit from a solid Jewish education as a child. Perhaps you've always wanted to learn Hebrew, understand the weekly Torah portion, or delve into the mysteries of the Talmud. Or maybe you've been wanting to brush up on your general Jewish knowledge... ... Only you've never found an effective way to accomplish your goals. Now there is a program designed especially.Partners in Torah Partners in Torah teams you up with a carefully chosen personal mentor for an hour a week of stimulating learning. Together you'll explore whatever topic interests you most:
One hour... many partnerships All the partnerships gather at the same location one evening each week for an hour of study, followed by light refreshments and an opportunity to socialize with other participants.
What's more...
Partners in Torah connects you to Jewish life through Torah, the single common denominator which has sustained our faith and our community throughout the generations. And the world of Torah has nearly unlimited points of entry. It's a very special break in the routine of life, a break which refreshes the mind and the soul. It is an opportunity to meet people like yourself. It is an opportunity to meet people who are very different. It is a chance to share your experiences with others and to have others share their experiences with you. Because sharing is what partnerships are all about.
