Jewish Values

The Homecoming Dance

The following is the introduction to the unit on the value of our Homeland, Israel.

How do we create nurturing homes for our children? How do we foster belonging and healing in our communities? How do we have a relationship with a country that sometimes may feel like home and at other times may feel foreign to us?

Through texts and song, we will discuss how to create strong, loving, realistic relationships within our homes and with the Land of Israel. We will think about how we can strengthen our families, our communities, and our homeland.

The Year of Growth book enriches the Momentum year-long journey. Most Partner Organizations build on Year of Growth resources to deepen group learning. Mothers use the book to share learning with friends and family and to bring the learning back to their children.

Year of Growth is given in Israel to all Momentum trip participants in English, Russian, Spanish, or Hebrew as of 2020.
