A Way In Meditation Sits

Mishkan Shalom Synagogue, 4101 Freeland Ave, Philadelphia, PA | Get Directions »
FREE

Tuesday morning "sits" offer an opportunity to come together for 25 minutes of silent meditation. The session usually begins and ends with a short teaching from Rabbi Yael Levy.

Meditation is a singular practice that, on its deepest level, makes us aware of how we are connected to all life. Something powerful is added when meditating with others. Many participants find that spending even that short time in silence makes a difference for their entire week.

The sits begin promptly in the Mishkan Shalom chapel at 8 a.m. and are finished before 8:30 a.m. Call for additional details: 215.508.0226.

More About Mishkan Shalom Synagogue

Mishkan Shalom Synagogue

Mishkan Shalom Synagogue

Mishkan Shalom is a Reconstructionist synagogue, seeking spiritual strength, a feminist reconstruction of Judaism, children as integral, the inclusion of homosexuals in the faith, and the pursuit of justice and peace -- in Philadelphia and the Middle East.

The Reconstructionist movement in Judaism focuses on community (instead of individuality) and active participation in the constant interpretation of the scriptures -- which guide, rather than govern.

For a deeper discussion, see the website or visit and speak with a rabbi. 

The congregation also operates a school which serves more than 150 students.
