Do Jews Believe in the Afterlife?

Does Judaism believe in the afterlife? Unequivocally, the answer is yes! Unfortunately, in the contemporary Jewish community,  people are often unaware of traditional Jewish wisdom on the afterlife journey of the soul.

Come and join us with guest speaker Simcha Raphael for a fascinating program on this topic:

The program will begin at 1pm following a light lunch at noon. Please feel free to join us for a morning meditation at 9:30am and a service at 10am as well.
