BJE Educator's Conference Key Note Address

This past Sunday, while our families were concluding our retreat, religious school educator's from around Los Angeles were gathered at the yearly BJE conference. The keynote address was by Dr. David Bryfman, an inspiring educator out of New York, who spoke to the importance of experiential education. While I was sad to miss his address, I was able to listen to the recording later and delighted in the fact that I missed the address to be on our 1st Annual Family Retreat.

The JLC is not about preparation for bar mitzvah, we are are not about passing into the next Hebrew level, we are about changing lives. We are about creating engaged, committed Jews.
