Rabbis and community leaders need professional support in order to
bear the immense responsibility of being a leader and keep both
motivation and energy levels high. RIKMA has developed a program that
is intended to provide spiritual leaders with new hopes and ideas, as
well as help them strengthen their connection with other brave
colleagues.
Amongst the activities that are planned for 2003-2004 are:
May 2003
A Week Long Meeting Between the Boulder, Colorado Community and RIKMA Fellows
As part of a joint project between The Weaver Foundation and Rikma,
at least two trips to Boulder Colorado will take place this year. The
first, in March, saw Rabbi Elisha Wolfin and Rabbi David Lazar teach
and learn in this vibrant community. The second trip, coming up
in May will include a number of Rikma fellows(3-4) who will explore
the community's many successful projects together, meet its
influential leaders and teach in a number of different frameworks.
May -June 2003
Jewish Healing Conference in Arizona
These same fellows will continue their learning experience in
Arizona, where they will participate in the Jewish Healing
conference.
