NER FJMC Presents: VeTreat 2020
Saturday, June 13 - 8:30 PM - 11:00 PM Sunday, June 14 - 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM
TheRetreat, or The Laymen's Institute as it was previously known, is the first and oldest weekend retreat for Jewish men in America. Now in its 74th year, TheRetreat 2020 at Camp Ramah has been cancelled due to the Coronavirus. However, while there is no real substitute for the in-person camaraderie, camp food and sleeping in bunks at TheRetreat, we will be holding a Virtual Retreat, a VeTreat, on the same weekend instead. . Activities will include story and joke telling by professionals, a talk by a GRAMMY nominated scholar, Havdalah, a Hearing Men's Voices session on Men and Friendship, and Sunday morning worship.
Zoom instructions will be provided upon registering, and a detailed schedule will be sent before the event. Feel free to join us for all or just some of the activities. Time will be set aside for schmoozing.
The VeTreat is free and open to all men in the New England and Connecticut Valley Regions of FJMC.as well as former TheRetreat/Laymen's Institute attendees.
