Teens
WELCOME TO MARIN MIDRASHA
WEDNESDAY NIGHTS JUST GOT BETTER
The Bar or Bat Mitzvah is just the beginning, not the end! Through friendships with their peers and supportive relationships with teachers and Clergy, Jewish learning and connection continue for teens at Kol Shofar. With the academic and social pressures mounting, it is precisely during the teen years that our youth benefit so greatly from the intellectual and social connections, as well as the pursuit of meaning and purpose in life that these programs offer. At Kol Shofar, our teens will be encouraged to grow as Jewish leaders, apply Jewish values to relevant life situations and events, as well as participate in the joy of being part of a community.
Marin midrasha is the place for Jewish Teens to connect, relax, have fun, and make a difference-all in a warm, inclusive jewish environment

WHAT IS MIDRASHA?
In partnership with Congregation Rodef Sholom and other Marin County Jewish institutions, Midrasha (Hebrew for "a place of study") is a community-based, learner-centered program designed for post-B'Nei Mitzvah teens.
Our mission is to explore Jewish ethics, spirituality, and wisdom in a way that's relevant to the real-world challenges today's teens face.
MIDRASHA REGISTRATION FOR 2025/2026 IS NOW OPEN!
