Unearthing Sarah’s Story
with Tzivia Gover
Sunday, October 20, 11:00am (in person)
Prepare for Simchat Torah and restarting the Torah reading cycle in a powerful way! It might seem that to gain the full stories of the matriarchs of the Hebrew Bible we need to read between the lines. But there is also much to discover and explore within the texts themselves where hints and information about these powerful women are hiding in plain sight. In this workshop, author, poet, and Certified Dreamwork Professional Tzivia Gover will share her process of rediscovering the biblical matriarch Sarah and invite participants to find their place in this foundational story as well. Using text study, guided discussion, and creative writing we will dive into key passages about the first Hebrew matriarch, Sarah, to rediscover her on the pages of our sacred texts, and as an archetypal presence within ourselves. Everyone is welcome, whether they consider themselves a writer or not, and at all levels of Jewish education, experience, and all gender identities.
