Velveteen

During Passover this year we went to a seder at a friend’s house. She used a haggadah—a prayer rite, said throughout the course of long meal—put together by a blogger who has long been on our blogroll, Rachel (Velveteen Rabbi). Only she’s not really a rabbi—yet.

Rachel has just been accepted for rabbinic study, a feat in itself and a huge challenge for the future. It is a delight to read about this journey by someone so intelligent, so committed to the paths of understanding of different faiths, so willing to share her own experience.

Mazel tov, Rachel.

  1. Thank you so much for your kind words and your enthusiasm for my undertaking!

    I’m still tickled that you wound up at a seder that used my haggadah, honestly. That makes me so happy…

    This is a long and wild adventure I’m setting out on; I couldn’t imagine doing it without the caring support of many friends, online and off. Thanks for being one of them.
