The Walking With series has been created by the Ziegler
School of Rabbinic Studies in partnership with the United Synagogue of Conservative
Judaism, the Rabbinical Assembly, the Women’s League for Conservative Judaism,
and the Federation of Jewish Men’s Clubs. It has been made possible by the generous
support of the Held Foundation, and is dedicated to the memory of Louise and
Harold Held.
Our tradition teaches that Talmud Torah has no prescribed
measure, that it yields benefit both immediately and in the time to come. It
is our earnest hope that the Walking With project will awaken a passion for
learning and provide a stimulating and positive educational experience in the
short term. We pray, also, that in the longer term it will help to strengthen
our people's connection to God and to a life of spirit and mitzvot.
