Welcome to Limmud Boston

"Limmud is amazing online. Loving this modality!"

"This was absolutely fantastic. I'm so glad Limmud was able to go forward this year even under the circumstances."

"What a terrific way to start the day!"

"Thank you WONDERFUL Limmudniks! You are truly a special group."

"I used to say LimmudBoston is one of the best days in Jewish Boston.
Today you can experience this from anywhere on Earth!"

"Applause, from around the world!"

"Aloha/Shalom from Honolulu."

"The plethora of choices was amazing and the quality of the presentations was excellent. It was such an inspiring, entertaining, and enjoyable day.
Well done to all the presenters and volunteers for creating such a fabulous and successful online festival!"

 

Did you know that registration fees only cover about 1/2 the costs of keeping LimmudBoston in business?

From consultants' costs to insurance, from website/technology fees to subsriptions and so much more, it is a challenge to run a non-profit nowadays, especially in these unprecedented times.

Help us offer great learning and engagement by making a donation here.

What people had to say about eFestival May 3, 2020

"Thanks, Naomi (Gurt Lind), for a beautiful session. I understand why this is your calling!"

"Thank you Marcia (Plumb)! Lovely session. Seder/order is a more complicated topic than meets the eye."

"Terrific, informative presentation, Julie (Wolkoff). Thank you!"

"I am a physician and have had experience taking care of patients at the end of life but, until today, I had no education about the Jewish viewpoint! This was helpful and gave me a lot to think about."

"Joining from London, UK - thanks for making this happen! So far today, I’ve been at Limmuds in China, UK, Bulgaria, Mallorca and now Boston - amazing!"

"Thank you for today LimmudBoston! Greetings from Ukraine"

"So good to be together! Thank you, everyone!"

A Vaccine Prayer

by Rabbi Menachem Creditor

Dear God,
after all the loss,
the distance, the sadness, the aloneness,
Give me life.
Grant me back Your world. Please.
Give my children reason for hope. Please. Please.

Holy Healing One,
May the vaccine I'm about to receive be a sign that healing is arriving once again in our world, for all Your worried children.
May my body's temporary discomfort sensitize me to the needs of this fragile world that remain invisible to the eye.
May my body's pent-up tension, held back during an unfathomable year of constriction and stress, be channeled in a healthy way for those around me.
May the scientists and doctors and nurses who have served as your angels and saved our world be granted restoration of soul and healing of mind.

I pledge before You, Source of All, to do as much good as I can as long as my soul is within me.

May I be granted a life filled by the honor of serving You by serving others.

Thank You. Goodness.
Thank You. Healing.
Thank You. Life.

Amen.

 

Rabbi Menachem Creditor, featured performer and teacher at LimmudBoston’s November eFestival, is the Pearl and Ira Meyer Scholar-in-Residence at UJA-Federation New York.

Following recitation of “A Vaccine Prayer,” you are invited
to recite or sing the Shehecheyanu, as a way of marking
and ritualizing this significant moment in your life.

Baruch atah Adonai eloheinu melech ha’olam, Shehecheyanu,
v’kee-y’manu, v’higi-anu lazman hazeh. 

Blessed are You, Adonai our God, Ruler of the world,
Who has given us life, sustained us, and brought us to this time.
