11:15 am - 11:50 am    Mussar Learning / Limmud: Amy Eilberg on "Do You Love Me? Compassion in our Relationships"

• As often taught, it is easy in theory to have compassion for others. However, extending compassion to those who hurt, annoy, or offend us is much harder. We will examine texts that address the practice of compassion in relationships. Our focus will be on those in our family or friendship circle who think very differently than we do about Israel.
