Rosh and Nosh ⏺️
2025-06-26 08:15 - 09:00 | Ahavath Achim Synagogue – Lobby, 600 Peachtree Battle Ave NW, Atlanta, GA, 30327
Join us once a month on Rosh Chodesh to elevate the new month with Ahava parents and minyan regulars! After the morning minyan service, we'll be offering the opportunity for our two wonderful communities to schmooze and learn a short bit of Torah that's friendly for the whole family. Stop in for coffee and a donut, and hang out as long as you'd like! Learning will last approximately five minutes and will be offered twice, at 8:30 a.m. and 8:45 a.m.
*This Month* Intermittent Fasting—A New Diet Fad or Ancient Spiritual Practice?
In this month of Tamuz, we'll examine how Jewish fasting traditions offer profound spiritual insights that go far beyond today's wellness trends.
Discover how our ancestors understood fasting as a pathway to heightened awareness, teshuvah (return), and connection to the Divine. Through traditional Jewish sources and contemporary reflection, we'll explore how intentional abstinence can awaken us to gratitude, compassion, and mindful living in our daily routines.
Whether you're curious about the spiritual dimensions of fasting or seeking to deepen your Jewish practice, this interactive discussion will offer fresh perspectives on bringing sacred intention into our relationship with food, time, and memory. Light refreshments will be served as we break our learning "fast" together.
Come hungry—for knowledge, connection, and meaningful conversation about how ancient wisdom speaks to modern life.
