Virtual Community One Read

November 18 @ 12:00 pm

Join us for a virtual Community One Read featuring Rabbi Angela Buchdahl, the first female Senior Rabbi of Central Synagogue in New York City, and author Abigail Pogrebin.

A stir­ring account of one woman’s jour­ney from feel­ing like an out­sider to becoming one of the most admired reli­gious lead­ers in the world. Rabbi Angela Buchdahl was pro­found­ly spir­i­tu­al from a young age, she felt a con­nec­tion to God when only a child and felt the first stir­rings to become a rab­bi at age six­teen. Despite the naysay­ers and peri­ods of self-doubt she stayed the course, which took her first to Yale, then to rab­bini­cal school, can­to­r­i­al school, and final­ly to the pul­pit of one of the largest, most influ­en­tial con­gre­ga­tions in the world. She has writ­ten a book that is both a mem­oir and a spir­i­tu­al guide for every­day liv­ing, which is exact­ly what so many of us crave right now.

No reservations are required and light refreshments will be served.
