Coming Up
Parenting: A
Spiritual Practice
A 2-week workshop
for parents of children of all ages with Rabbis Victor & Nadya Gross
Boulder JCC
3800 Kalmia Avenue
Boulder, CO 80301
The spiritual practice of parenting seeks to create a safe, loving and
supportive environment where young beings can grow in conscious
partnership with their divine intention. When we learn to parent in
this way, our homes are defined by love, authenticity and meaning. Come
learn how to find new joy and purpose in your relationships with your
children.
Rabbis Victor and Nadya Gross, co-rabbis of Pardes Levavot: a Jewish
Renewal Congregation in Boulder, received Joint Rabbinic Ordination
from Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi in recognition of their unique
paradigm of spiritual partnering. Living and working together for over
35 years (and parenting 4 beautiful children), they bring their
experience and the lessons of our sacred tradition to their work with
couples, families and in community.
Two Wednesdays: February 25 & March 4

A Jew was
walking on Regent Street in London and stopped in to a posh gourmet
food shoppe. An impressive salesperson in morning coat with tails
approached him and politely asked, "May I help you, Sir?"
"Yes," replied the customer, "I would like to buy a pound of lox."
"No. No," responded the dignified salesperson, "You mean smoked salmon."
"Okay, a pound of smoked salmon."
"Anything else?"
"Yes, a dozen blintzes."
"No. No. You mean crepes."
"Okay, a dozen crepes."
"Anything else?"
"Yes. A pound of chopped liver."
"No. No. You mean pate."
"Okay," said the Jewish patron, "A pound of pate. And," he added, "I'd
like you to deliver this to my house next Saturday."
"Look," retorted the indignant salesperson, "We don't schlep on
Shabbos!"
