CKYA - Jewish Young Adults

Hello friends,
We had such a fantastic time on Purim singing the songs of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. Bravo to our amazing cast- Mat, Julia, David, Amber, Jacquelyn, and Jaclyn. Thank you for dedicating your time and talent to putting on such a fantastic show! The Congregation had rave reviews!!

We are excited to share TWO upcoming Shabbat dinner events coming up in the next few weeks as well as a Jewlyweds Game Night. 
 🌟 Friday, March 17th Shhhhbat Speakeasy Series #2- Join us on St Patrick's day! We will have dinner and drinks on Shabbat in a cool hidden speakeasy. This time we have a reservation booked for 12 people at a speakeasy in Old Town Scottsdale, but you have to RSVP to find out the exact location. Get those RSVPS in before we fill up! 
​Hint on the location: With flavors from around the world, you will surely find something to delight in! Sip on your favorite spirits while enjoying a local singer-songwriter. Just be sure you don't miss the entrance, as it can be entirely hidden.
🌟 Friday, March 24th Home-y Shabbat - We're excited to bring you a fun and educational Shabbat dinner! We're partnering with a good friend to discuss a very important topic- home buying! Are you in the market to buy a home or looking to in the future? We'll have Shabbat dinner and discuss an "adult-ish" topic over dinner in the home of a community member, Daniel Fischpan. Daniel is a mortgage lender who will provide insight into the home-buying process! Hang out with your peers and discuss a vital life topic. RSVP here. 
 🌟 Sunday, March 26th Jewlyweds Game Night- Join other newly married and engaged couples for a little friendly game night competition. RSVP here. 
Passover is coming up in April. We are not sure of our plans for CKYA yet, but please fill out this form to let us know if you are looking for a seder to attend on the 1st or 2nd night so we can start planning! You can also let us know in this form if you are interested in hosting a seder.
Shabbat Shalom!

Hello everyone,
It's been a minute but we hope that everyone is settling into a groove for 2023! We are continuing to meet new Jewish young adults everywhere we turn- it's madness. Who let out the secret of how cool Arizona is becoming?!?! Just kidding, we're excited to see that our community is growing 😎

It's beginning to look a lot like Chanukah! ⭐

Dear friends,
Have we mentioned lately that we are grateful to you for being a part of the CKYA community? Well... you get gratitude... and you get gratitude... we all get gratitude! Because SERIOUSLY, we truly appreciate your support and most of all friendship for all that we do here at CKYA <3 
Last month, we enjoyed not one, but two hikes! One in partnership with our great friends Rachel and Mat at the Moishe House Pod. If you haven't met them yet, follow their Facebook page to learn about more of their amazing events. We also kicked off our 3-week mindfulness series Holy Bodies with some rockstar women and wow did we get deep exploring the Jewish perspective on breath. Thank you all for an inspiring first class!
As we round out November, it is such an opportune time to re-focus our energy on the work of our souls. We have one last event upcoming in November! We are attending Sutra Studios' donation-based flow class on Thanksgiving morning at Coronado Park. RSVP so we can make sure to coordinate where to meet :)
In December, we have some FUN STUFF planned. It's about to get HYPE. 
Thursday, Dec 15th- Jewish Learning Class on the Story of Chanukah (click to RSVP)Another great opportunity for all my Torah lovers and/or those who enjoy deep conversations. We'll probably have a latke and some gelt too. 
Sunday, Dec 17th- Day Trip to Hike in Sedona (Click to RSVP)Day trip up to Sedona to see the gorgeous red rocks covered in snow, and do a famous hike Devil's Bridge followed by a warm meal. Sedona in winter is a must-see! 
Saturday, Dec 24th- Mazelpalooza Classy Cocktail Pre-Game (Click to RSVP)On Christmas eve, we will be attending the annual Mazelpalooza event hosted by the Center for Jewish Philanthropy. It's going to be an amazing night of dancing. We'll be hosting a classy-as-f**ck pre-game before heading over to The Duce where the event is being held. If you have ever felt nostalgia for your college nights, now is the chance to relive them, though we promise to provide some nice remedies to prevent hangovers
Friday, Dec 30th Shabbat on Chai- New Years Edition (Click to RSVP)Shabbat on Chai is BACK! This time we'll be popping bottles of champagne as we celebrate the Sabbath and the "almost" new year on Dec 30th. Consider this a pre-new year's celebration, Kosher-style. Party will be disco-theme so dress in your best disco glam or 70s outfits. 
Chanukah- CALL FOR EVENTS! Chanukah goes from Sun 12/18-Sun 12/25. We wanted to see if any of YOU were interested in hosting a casual Chanukah night event... if so, hit us up! We'll bring everything you need to you- the people, decorations, and food. And the best part, is you don't even have to leave your house to get there! ;) 
As always, call me/beep me/text me with questions! The # number to reach us is Madeline's cell 602-686-3010. 
Have a happy thanksgiving, merry and bright, and full of appreciation!
Love,

November Hikes and Cocktail Party!

This Fall we are running our 2nd learning circle focused on the topics of mindfulness and gratitude starting on Nov 20th. In this class, you will have the opportunity to learn alongside like-minded people about this messy, awesome, confounding, outrageous thing we call life!  
Read on for more details about the class and how to apply.....
What are the topics?
Week 1: Breath How does breath show up as an integral part of human beings? How might we express gratitude for something inherent to our existence? What Jewish spiritual technologies are offered?
Week 2: Rest In an ever-going world, what might taking meaningful rest look like and how might it change our well-being? How might we interact with the idea of a Sabbath as Jewish tradition’s spiritual technology? Is a time of rest inherently counter-cultural? Or could it support us holistically in our modern lifestyles and pursuits? How can the essence of Shabbat help us create a “rest practice” in our modern lives?
Week 3: Mindful Eating What does it mean to eat mindfully? How might connecting to the source of our food open up spiritual opportunities for us? What infrastructure does Jewish practice provide in developing a wellness practice around mindful eating?
Who are the sponsors?
IYUN learning circles are an eclectic collection of folks who gather over a few weeks for a new kind of conversation and to deepen their understanding of Judaism — on their own terms. 
At the Well We create spaces of belonging to learn about our bodies and to connect with transformative Jewish rituals.
Congregation Kehillah Young Adults An offshoot of local synagogue Congregation Kehillah,CKYA is an effort to give "post college pre family" young adults a synagogue to belong to and a community to join of like-minded peers.  
When is it? 
3 Sundays in November - 11/20, 11/27, and 12/4. Plus 1 Shabbat dinner on 12/9.
What if I can't make ALL of the sessions, but still want to participate? Please apply anyway! 
But I’m so busy.
Oh, trust and believe, we get that. We... really really get that. But let’s be real, you probably scroll on social media at least 2 hours a week right? You’ll be able to pat yourself on the back for spending this same amount of time, unplugged. You owe this to yourself :)
Do I need experience with Hebrew or Torah? I never went to/been a while since /hated Hebrew School…
CKYA Learning Circles are for an eclectic collection of folk. No prerequisite experience is necessary. Just a willingness and desire to learn, grow, and ask. We make no claims about the “right” way to practice or not to practice Judaism. Our job is to help you explore the tradition in a safe space and find your own place Jewishly on your terms.
Do I need experience with meditation?  This will be a great class for beginners and experts alike! We will provide guided meditations and instruction for those who are new to these types of contemplative practices. 

How is this course different from other Jewish learning programs?
If you want to learn more about Jewish tradition, a lot of people offer world-class, incredible classes, and experts are more accessible than ever through online lectures and public events. Here in Phoenix, we’re doing something different. We’re trying to build people who really get to know each other, and we’re really into exploring our tradition in a modern way. Yes, I mean looking at the Torah (aka the millennia-old big Jewish conversation) and its uncanny ability to hold up a mirror to our lives. 
Do I have to wear a black hat or grow out a long beard to participate?
We usually wear jeans, but you do you.

I still have questions!
Great! I would love to answer them. Email me at madeline.dolgin@gmail.comor let’s grab coffee.

I would be into this. What do I do now?
Applications for our Holy Bodies Learning Circle will be accepted on a rolling basis through Nov 6th and I would urge you to apply as soon as possible - spots fill up quickly. You can apply right here.

Our next Jewish learning circle (with added bonus of meditation!)

Hello everyone,
It was so fantastic to gather under the Sukkah this past Friday. We enjoyed reuniting with friends from the past and meeting new people as well. 
Our next gathering will be a hike up to Dobbins Lookout in South Mountain on Sunday, October 30th. We will also begin a 3-session Jewish learning class called "Holy Bodies."  In this series, we will open with meditation and explore the topics of breath, rest, and mindful eating as we prepare ourselves for the secular holiday of gratitude- Thanksgiving. You can signup and apply here.  
We also have a community women's event we will be attending called Power of the Purses hosted by the Center for Jewish Philanthropy. The event is $54 and it is a fundraiser for our local Jewish organizations. Please RSVP at https://lu.ma/cjpwomen and pay at this link.
We hope to see you at one of our upcoming events!  In order to stay updated on our upcoming events, follow us on Instagram or join our email list/bookmark our events at lu.ma/ckya . 
If you have any ideas of what other events you would like to see, please don't hesitate to reach out and speak up. This community is for ALL of us and your ideas are welcome.
Cheers,
Madeline and Mat

October/November Events- Hikes, learning, and more!

Welcome to Year 5783!
It has been so energizing to come together as a community for several events since we started CKYA this summer. Last year during the high holidays, we remember staring at a computer screen trying to focus on Rosh Hashanah services....on zoom... This year 12 of us gathered for a homecooked meal made by two of our own amazing members (shout out to David and Jaclyn!!), followed by inspiring services from Rabbi Bonnie! We have to say this year was definitely more fulfilling. 
​We have just posted our event calendar for Yom Kippur and the rest of October (7 events in total!!) and wanted to get them out asap so you can save the date. View the calendar here. We hope some of the upcoming events will pique your interest.
Some highlights include: 
**Yom Kippur Yoga -Oct 5th
**Shabbat on Chai (Round 2) - Oct 14th
**Marching in the Pride Parade with the AZ Jews for Pride delegation- Oct 16th
**Finally, a hike on Oct 29th (South Mountain area- Holbert Trail to Dobbins Lookout)
For those on the high holiday membership, remember to use your code to sign up for all the events for free! Otherwise, most events are a small donation of $5-$10 to support the Synagogue and help cover overhead costs. Please always let us know if you are experiencing financial hardship and we can comp your ticket cost. 
​​We hope to see you at one of our upcoming events! If you have any ideas of what other events you would like to see, please don't hesitate to reach out and speak up. This community is for ALL of us and your ideas are welcome.
​​L'Shanah Tovah may this year continue to inspire!

Hello community!
What an incredible start to our Jewish young adult synagogue membership. Thank you to our friends, followers, and supporters for expressing so much enthusiasm about our new initiative.

We are still working out the price structure so all events through the end of August will be free. We will notify all members when it is finalized. 
If you are new to the community and would like to chat, please email Madeline at madeline.dolgin@gmail.com to Mat at mat@matsherman.com to set up a time for a meeting. We want to hear your input on how to make our community EPIC.
