Temple Beth Sholom Sisterhood will present an open dialogue about Judaism and sexuality in our families today on Thursday, April 11 at 8 p.m. at Temple Beth Sholom. Rabbi Alan Lucas and psychologist Norman Fried will discuss the importance of making synagogues welcoming and inclusive places for all people, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.
Lucas was a member of the Committee of Law & Jewish Standards of the Conservative Movement that formulated current policy on gay marriage. Fried is a clinical psychologist and instructor in pastoral counseling for the Jewish Theological Seminary and appears regularly on “Fox and Friends” on Sunday mornings, including in a segment on gender-neutral child-rearing.
This program is free and open to the public. Temple Beth Sholom is located at 401 Roslyn Road in Roslyn Heights.
