Rabbi Elaine Schnee, of Temple Beth El in Dalton, is among the first one hundred women ordained in the Conservative movement of Judaism. Based on Jewish history and her own personal experiences, she will discuss the process by which women were accepted as rabbis in this branch of Judaism. She also will explore how that change in religious leadership has—or has not—influenced family life in areas such as marriage and divorce. After her brief talk, she welcomes questions and conversation about any topic related to Judaism.
