About Rosh Chodesh Circle at The Boston Synagogue

Did you know that Rosh Chodesh was given to women as their own special holiday?

Rosh Chodesh signifies the renewal of the moon and the start of a new month. According to tradition, it was a reward to women for their devotion and wisdom during the Exodus and their refusal to participate in the creation of the Golden Calf. Instead, they eagerly contributed their gold and jewelry to help build the Mishkan (Tabernacle)!

Join us to celebrate the new month with meaningful discussions that explore Jewish wisdom, traditions, rituals, and blessings to honor Rosh Chodesh. It’s a wonderful opportunity to connect and foster a supportive community— along with snacks and wine!

What to Expect:

• Thoughtful discussions on Jewish wisdom and traditions
• Rituals and blessings to honor the new month
• Opportunities to connect and build a supportive community
• Snacks and wine

We can't wait to celebrate with you!

We had a fabulous time celebrating the New Moon Nisan with our Jewish Community of Jewish Women in downtown, Boston at The Boston Synagogue.
