Older students are invited to the church kitchen to bake Rugelach, a traditional sweet pastry that symbolizes hope for a sweet New Year. Meanwhile, fourth and fifth-grade students will make candy for the HSF. Both of these acts of sharing and creating are known as a mitzvah, or act of kindness, in the Jewish tradition.

“World Blessings” is a curriculum which seeks to introduce our world’s diverse religions and holidays through the shared activity of cooking. Each recipe contains a section called Learn About the World that will provide context for the recipe’s traditional culture. Sharing stories, holidays, and traditions from different faiths will help students begin a journey of understanding, tolerance, and celebration for the diversity of human expressions of faith.
