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.
