Limmud 2013 a Huge Success!

With returning attendees for the third time and enthusiastic new participants Winnipeg’s third Limmud created a buzz in the community with forty sessions from the Women of the Exodus to Social Justice. Shabbat programs with Limmud out of town talent happened in five venues all around town in conjunction with Shabbat Across North America (National Jewish Outreach Program.) The conference began with havdallah on Saturday night. Highlights included good food, the buzz of schmoozing over coffee and lunch, and the diversity of everything Jewish from art to Talmud to Jewish Yoga. See photos here!
