Various Chavurot provide opportunities for personal and spiritual growth as the group becomes part of a caring community with a sense of belonging. You will undoubtedly share life-cycle celebrations, and depending on the focus of your group, meet for social or cultural purposes. We'll note your desire for a local group, however at this time, there are no groups from any single geographic area. Members generally rotate activities in people's homes or meet out in the community. Individual groups set up their own calendar.
Many groups meet monthly and usually calendar events in advance so that everyone can participate.
The successful groups are those that meet regularly with most members attending and taking responsibility for various activities throughout the year.

Dates are decided from month to month, and usually are advertised in the Hadashot. The classes are small, with 10-16 people attending at a time.
