Dorot, meaning generations, is a new Holy Blossom initiative geared towards providing programming for the Wisdom Generation. Join us online, together with Rabbi Rena Arshinoff, for “Jewish Folktales” – bringing you back in time and sharing stories of our people.

This program offers an opportunity to come together, sharing our stories to connect with your past and fellow community. Jewish folktales are stories filled with age-old wisdom and enjoyment. They often offer a glimpse into the origin of traditions that we have learned from our previous generations; parents and grandparents which always carry a message. This fun program will offer a selection of Jewish folktales that will be narrated by Rabbi Rena Arshinoff. We will then share our own experiences in conversation that relate to the storyline and message of each of these folktales.

Following Rabbinic Ordination in 2008 at Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion, Rabbi Rena trained in hospital chaplaincy and became board certified as a chaplain with the Canadian Association for Spiritual Care. She also holds a Certificate in Bereavement Education and a Certificate in Grief and Trauma Counselling. Prior to her rabbinical training, Rabbi Rena was a Registered Nurse in Montreal. She holds a BSc from Concordia University and completed an MHSc degree in Epidemiology at the University of Toronto and worked for 20 years in clinical research. Rabbi Rena is a Board member of Neshama: Association of Jewish Chaplains and holds a Ph.D. in Palliative Care from Lancaster University in England. She also volunteers with Bereaved Families of Ontario in the Children’s Program and the Infant Loss Program as a group facilitator and Professional Advisor. Rabbi Rena was appointed Adjunct Lecturer to the Faculty of Family Medicine at the University of Toronto.

Rabbi Rena has been entertaining seniors conducting the Jewish Folktales program for the past eight years with great success.
