Teen Fellowship: Virtues & Values in Action: A Workshop for Teens (CLOSED FOR TEEN FELLOWS)

Log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

We’ve all spent the last 18 months living with uncertainty, lack of human connection, and change. As we begin to define new norms and take off our masks, both literally and metaphorically, let’s work together through shared connection and an exploration of important virtues and values that guide our lives. Through this work, we can tap into what matters most to us and learn new ways that we can use Jewish and universal values such as gratitude, humility, patience and compassion to enrich our lives and the lives of those we spend time with.
The first part of this workshop for teens will be a gift of exploration, interacting with others in different modalities, using tools —-some familiar and some new —-to live more intentionally, and identifying what matters to each of us and why. The second part will be an interactive discussion about ways teens can bring these new tools, ideas and practices into their leadership roles as madrichim, in any other group setting - Jewish, secular, social, with family members, friends, or independently.
