Jewish Voices in UUism

March 14-16 Morristown, New Jersey

A national gathering of Unitarian Universalists for Jewish Awareness (UUJA) will be held March 14-16, 2014 at the Morristown Unitarian Fellowship in Morristown, New Jersey.

The theme is “Jewish Voices in Unitarian Universalism”. It will feature the editors and contributors to the upcoming book by the same name (Skinner House Jan.2014) in conversation about Jewish identity, Judaism as a source tradition, Tikkun Olam and social justice, and the pluses and challenges of this hyphenated status in UU communities.

Beginning Friday evening March 14 through midday Sunday March 16, the weekend will also include small havarot or spirituality groups, worship, a Purim celebration, special foods and fellowship.

“As UUJA president and co-editor of the new collection of essays lifting up Jewish voices within our faith, I am eagerly awaiting this major event,” says Rev. Leah Hart- Landsberg.“When UU Jews, their friends and allies gather, it is for fun and friendship, intellectual engagement, spiritual connection, self-understanding and movement building.”

Morristown Hyatt House will be the official hotel for our gathering. Special Rates, $99 for one bedroom suites and $149 for two bedroom suites have been arranged. Use Special rates when reserving online and enter G-UUJA. Or call 973 971 0008 to make a reservation over the phone. Shuttles will be available to take you to and from the gathering at the Morristown Fellowship.
