You read it right: Lehrhaus is on tour, but we're not just entertaining, we're educating! In 2008 Lehrhaus Judaica, along with the SFJCF and the JCCSF will be doing three tours, two to Israel in the year of her 60th anniversary, and one to Eastern Europe. The details are below. Remember to register early so you don't miss out on all the fun!

• Roots, Ruins and Rebirth: Berlin, Dresden and Prague
• August 8-17, 2008
• Cosponsored by the JCCSF

Jews have lived in these fabled cities for many centuries and experienced both glory and tragedy. With the help of today’s growing German and Czech Jewish communities, we seek to reclaim this history and ponder the future.
