Rosh Chodesh

Rosh Chodesh: It's a Girl Thing! is a multi-year, monthly celebration of the ancient New Moon holiday for pre-teen and teenage girls (grades 6-12) that builds self-esteem, leadership skills, and Jewish identity. It is a national program launched by Moving Traditions in 2002. Rosh Hodesh: It's a Girl Thing! draws on Jewish teachings and traditions to keep girls healthy and whole. At Temple Sinai , Rosh Hodesh: It's a Girl Thing! meets monthly on Sunday afternoons from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. The girls meet with their counselor and mentor, Student Rabbi Sarah Marion. The mothers also have an opportunity to get together for Rosh Hodesh at a monthly parallel group meeting led by our Director of Education, Melissa Cohavi.
