Written words have power to transport the reader and listener to places they have never before been. These written words, in books and such, afford an indescribable opportunity for experiencing other languages, cultures, and even customs.
Well then, why not transform families by offering an opportunity to taste of Jewish culture? Many families may not have yet found a place to be nurtured via formal Jewish life. Take them on that magic carpet ride that is the written page of a wonderfully written and crafted book.
The Y has joined with the PJ Library and the Harold Grinspoon Foundation to bring their truly serendipitous collections of books and CD's to our Y families at no additional outside cost to the families. The enrollment process couldn't be simpler. Click Here for easy access to our PJ Library home page where you can read more about PJ Library, and sign up for this completely FREE service.
Each collection of books will provide hours of reading, enjoyment, discussion and a wealth of opportunities. Learning about Jewish customs, thoughts, holidays and life lessons will be transmitted via this special experience seemingly effortlessly. Each time a book is read, participants will come away with a fresh and positive approach to Jewish life made possible by the PJ Library.
