Supporting Interfaith Couples and Their Families

The Outreach Committee hosts events designed to support and welcome WHC’s many interfaith couples and families. Our members share the specific challenges and rich rewards associated with creating a Jewish household with a non-Jewish spouse.

Our signature course – The Mother’s Circle – is designed for non-Jewish women raising Jewish children. An eight-month, bi-weekly educational course developed by the Jewish Outreach Institute, this program is a great opportunity to discover and learn about Judaism. More than just a class, The Mother’s Circle offers a small group setting for women to support one another as they discover how to enrich their family’s Jewish experiences and deepen their connection to Judaism. Tuition is free and childcare is available.

The Outreach Committee would love to hear from you. Please email Pam Bass at mommybass@aol.com if you would like to be added to our mailing list.  Please let us know if you have any questions, comments or program suggestions.
