-A joint project of St. Norbert and Our Lady of the Brook Parish Adult Faith Formation and Shir Hadash Synagogue Adult Education programs-

A look at the Book of Job from a Jewish-Catholic perspective…the same book but also a different book… what we learn, why we study it, and how we can share it as a Book of the Bible. The course will be taught by Deacon Peery Duderstadt of St. Norbert and Our Lady of the Brook Parish and Rabbi Eitan Weiner-Kaplow of Shir Hadash. Classes will meet on Tuesday afternoons from 1:00 - 2:00 PM on Zoom, beginning January 11 and ending March 8.
