Abundance and Joy!
We chose this theme to acknowledge that the intention of our gathering is indeed a sacred one: l'shem shamayim, for the sake of heaven. We acknowledge that we have the power to draw into our lives and our universe that which is at the center of our focus. And so we chose to focus on Abundance and Joy in our lives.
We offer two sessions of classes. After reviewing all the choices, you select one early course (morning) and one later course (afternoon). Each selected class meets for the three class days of the Cactus Kallah. (Please pick two alternates (second choices in case the first is full) for each.)
If you are registering ONLINE, please email your 2nd and 3rd choices. (Instructions are on the APPLICATION page.
