Shabbat T’lamdeini: a project of the Jewish Orthodox Feminist Alliance, will take place Shabbat Parshat Emor, 15 Iyar 5759, April 30 through May 1, 1999. Orthodox synagogues around the world will participate in this international event in which each individual synagogue will design a program centering on women’s learning and leadership to take place on that Shabbat. Synagogues will receive sample programs and may contact the Shabbat T’lamdeini Coordinating Committee for assistance in selecting topics and speakers, and/or in obtaining funding. The preliminary response has been very positive and, as we go to press, several synagogues have already signed on to participate.
