Judaism

Object: To get the Chanichim to realize that Halacha and Kaballah are not two polar opposites but they both work together to create the bigger picture of practicing Judaism. This is how we can approach a place like Tzefat which is so well known for both its Halachik and Kabalistic giants.

To learn how could man speak to G-d, how could a mere finite mortal influence a transcending infinite plane and how does one know what to say? 

Goal: This week the theme is personal values.  Why do you do what you do?  Every day, all of us have to make lots of little choices. We hope that they live up to what we think our values, but we all know that it doesn’t always happen the way we want it to.

Anyway, enough with the serious stuff.  This game can be adapted to suit all ages and all attention spans.

To explore what it means to be a Jew and show the chanichim that there is no one definition of a good Jew.
