Home Safe and Sound

Early this morning, the Workshoppers returned safe and sound from Poland. Although it was a long and difficult week, traveling around Poland and exploring the Shoah was a very meaningful and challenging experience. Here is the schedule from the past week:
Sunday: Kajimish, the old Jewish Quarter of Krakow
Monday: Auschwitz-Birkenau
Tuesday: the Krakow Ghetto, the youth movements' rebellion and free time in the Old Market
Wednesday: the Nazi world in Lublin, the Lublin Yeshivah, and Majdanek Concentration Camp
Thursday: the Warsaw Ghetto, the Jewish Cemetary and Janush Korchak's Orphanage
Friday: Tykotchin Shtetl, the mass grave at Lupachova Forest, and Treblinka
Saturday: the Dror movement's training farm at Grochov, the Dror movement commune at 34 Dzielna and the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising (Path to Heroism)
After each day, there was a night peula addressing the theme of the day and allowing space for group processing.

Please check back soon for pictures and chanichim perspectives.
