Mondays at 6-8 p.m. at JFCS
5 sessions: March 3, 10, 17, 24, 31
PJ Library of Minneapolis is offering a warm, inclusive space for Jewish, pregnant individuals to connect, learn, and feel supported during this transformative time. Together, we’ll explore meaningful Jewish rituals, wisdom, and stories surrounding pregnancy and birth, gain valuable insights and new friends for the journey ahead, and navigate the transition into parenthood with care and connection.
Jews of all denominations, identities, relationships, and levels of observance are welcome—no previous Jewish knowledge is needed, and everyone is Jewish enough to be here. Whether this is your first pregnancy or fifth, come join a community that celebrates this sacred season with joy, spirituality, and belonging. Let’s journey together!
The Spring 2025 cohort is designed for Jewish, pregnant folks expecting their baby in April 2025 or later. To help us build a strong community, please do your best to join all five sessions. A light dinner will be served at each gathering, and all participants will receive a personal journal for your reflections along the way.
Registration is offered on a sliding scale of $0 – $180 (Suggested: $100). Please register below by Sunday, Feb. 16.
