"I wanted to thank you again for the spirited and beautiful concert last night.

It was really inspired -- musically, liturgically, cross-culturally and some other ways I don't have words for. I hope we can support this energy and beautiful musical expression again...of the oneness of shared faiths, G-d seekers, peace-makers and justice shapers."

-- Abby Ruder

"I was so pleased at your call for each faith to be who they are at this event.

It is so rare for this to happen...Thank you for the wonderful night of prayer and song."

-- Doron Henkin

Food for Thought is all about understanding Jewish culture through cooking. In our opening session, we reviewed what a sukkah is and rules for its contruction. Then teens got creative and worked in teams to build an edible sukkah. The beautiful sukkot were not only for the teens to eat and enjoy, but were also created for the children in Mishkan's Celebrations! program.
