Upcoming Events

1.19 @ Tzedek Chicago : Shir l’Ometz Lev / Singing for Heart-Strength

Beit Yichud, 4-6pm

Ometz lev is the Hebrew term for courage and translates to "heart-strength." It is one of the core Jewish middot—spiritual and ethical traits—that we carry within us as beings created in the divine image. Even in moments when we feel fear or anxiety, we can tap into ometz lev, drawing on its presence to guide us forward with strength and purpose.

On January 19th, the eve of the next President’s inauguration, we will come together as a community to nurture ometz lev through prayerful song. In the harmony of our voices, we find a shared strength that transcends fear, an embodied reminder that we walk this path together and are never truly alone.

All are welcome to join—no musical experience needed. Come as you are and add your voice to this shared experience.
