Defeating the Marriage Amendment
Sunday, Jan. 22, 10 a.m. to Noon
Friends School of Minnesota
1365 Englewood Ave., St. Paul 55104 (North Entrance by Parking Lot on N. Albert St.)
Or Emet, the Minnesota Congregation for Humanistic Judaism, will host Adele Brown, who will discuss the Jewish values that direct us to engage in the historic effort to make Minnesota the first state to defeat a constitutional amendment to define marriage. Speaking from the vantage point of her many years as a Jewish community organizer, Adele will ask us to consider these difficult questions: How do we stop this move to enshrine discrimination into our Constitution? What Jewish values are violated by such an amendment and how do we galvanize our community to work to create a just society? How do we develop leaders willing and able to tell their stories, thus motivating and mobilizing others to do the same? The program is free and open to the public.
Help Children with Change, Loss and Grief
Monday, Jan. 30, 7 to 9 p.m.
Hope Lutheran Church
5728 Cedar Ave. S.
Children experience change and loss through death, divorce, disasters, disability and disappointments. This forum will equip and enable parents to help children and teens with the grieving process. We’ll explore: What is grief? How do developmental stages influence a child’s response to loss? How can parents keep the lines of communication open? How can families create meaningful rituals and memorials?
Sadao Watanabe Art Show
Wednesday, Feb. 1, to Tuesday, Feb. 28
Mount Olive Lutheran Church
3045 Chicago Ave. S.
This 20th century Japanese printmaker was known for rendering the Gospel in the mingei (folk art) tradition of Japan. Watanabe was influenced by Buddhist figure prints, placing Biblical figures in a Japanese context. His prints have hung in prestigious places, but he preferred that his prints hang in the ordinary places of life, “where people ordinarily gather.” The display is free and open to the public.
The Innocence Project Changes Death Penalty Dialogue
Friday, Feb. 3, 7:30 p.m.
Minneapolis Sabes Jewish Community Center
4330 Cedar Lake Rd. St. Louis Park 55416
Or Emet hosts a presentation by Twin Cities attorney David Schultz on the death penalty, its rationale and justification. Mr. Schultz served for six years as the board chair of The Innocence Project of Minnesota, which seeks the exoneration of persons wrongfully convicted of crimes they did not commit, and has assisted in investigating cases on its behalf. He will discuss the rationales typically put forth to justify execution in this country and examine how recent exonerations can/should impact that discussion. He is a partner at the law firm Maslon Edelman Borman & Brand, has represented defendants on death row and is currently leading the habeas effort to free Tyrone Armstrong from death row in Texas. He previously spent 11 years in the Minnesota Attorney General’s Office, where he prosecuted white collar criminals.
A short Humanistic Jewish Sabbath service precedes the program and an Oneg Shabbat reception follows. Free and open to the public.
