You are part of a growing community of women joining together monthly on Rosh Chodesh for inspiration and connection. Rabbi Eliyahu Kitov shares in the Book of Our Heritage that rainbow was created in Kislev. This eternal bond between G-d and humanity was revealed during the darkest of days as daylight begins to wane. Our people witnessed the miracle of Chanukah many millennia later during this same period of yearly darkness. We pray that this year, we merit to see the divine intervention in our challenging times in this miraculous month of Kislev. Our virtual Rosh Chodesh Kislev shiur with Ms. Zissy Turner will take place Thursday, November 4 at 12 noon EDT at ou.org/women/video. Ms. Zissy Turner serves on the Judaic studies faculty at Salanter Akiba Riverdale (SAR) High School in Riverdale, NY, teaching Tanakh and Gemara.

Zissy has previously served as Community Educator at Lincoln Square Synagogue, where she facilitated programs and initiatives to engage and teach the vibrant Upper West Side community.
