SUMMARY:Virtual Yiddish Open Mic
DESCRIPTION:Yiddish is the language of the Jews of Eastern Europe . It’s not spoken much now outside of ultra-orthodox Jewish communities\, yet there is a strong secular Yiddish revival across the world. The Yiddish Open Mic cafe that happens monthly in London offers a space where anyone with an interest in Yiddish can be sociable\, entertained and participate in a receptive\, warm\, friendly\, mainly Yiddish language environment. Yiddish is the main language on stage\, however everything is translated into English\, either projected as text\, sent as a PDF to use online\, or translated on the spot! \nVivi\, Arturo and Tamara of the Yiddish Open Mic Cafe had planned to tour Scotland in May with the special Open-Mic blend of Yiddish songs\, poems\, jokes\, stories\, games\, both serious and funny\, reflecting lives of the Yiddishlands of the past and the present. \nInstead of the tour\, they will be compering a special Scottish Virtual Yiddish Open Mic\, and inviting all Scottish Yiddishists and Yiddish-lovers to add their voices to the mix with contributions. A number of people are already signed up\, but it’s not too late to do so\, just email Fiona@scojec.org and we’ll send you more info. \nIf you just want to watch and soak in the atmosphere\, that’s great and it will be an entertaining\, fascinating\, participatory and fun evening. \nTo book for the evening which is on Sunday 26th April at 7 p.m. for 7.30 go to https://www.trybooking.co.uk/RIT . FREE but donations welcome.

SUMMARY:Faith and COVID-19:  Staying Connected   at a Time of Physical Distancing
DESCRIPTION:Religious communities are facing particular challenges during COVID-19 as they can’t meet at a time when they are in special need of the solace and support they get from their communities. Many are exploring innovative ways of maintaining these connections\, mainly online\, while others may be struggling to know where to start. \nThere are also many – particularly older people – who are not online and so other methods may need to be devised to help them feel connected. At this online dialogue event\, you’ll hear from diverse community leaders from Glasgow\, London and New York sharing about how they are responding to these challenges. We’ll also try out using Zoom’s “break out rooms” so you can meet our speakers and other participants in a small group and share your own ideas and experiences. \nSpeakers: \nKoshin Paley Ellison\, Robert Chodo Campbell\, co-founders of the New York Zen Center for Contemplative Care. Koshin wrote a guidance article on the importance of keeping Buddhist communities connected called ‘No Longer Alone’ and began leading online meditation classes in response to COVID-19. \nRev. Jonathan Fleming\, minister of St John’s Parish Church\, Largs. During COVID\, Jonathan has been doing frequent Facebook live sessions\, speaking directly to his congregation\, leading them in prayer\, and singing hymns. \nAcharyaji Mishra is a priest at the Hindu Mandir Glasgow. The Mandir has been broadcasting live facebook videos of prayers every day as a way to deliver worship to communities unable to visit in person. \nFiona Frank from SCoJeC (Scottish Council of Jewish Communities). SCoJeC has cultivated resources for community care and outreach and creating online communal activities. \nImam Is’Haaq Jasat from National Huffadh Association UK. He is the founder and CEO of the National Huffadh Association\, which has been working hard to create guidance for online teaching (Madrasah) to Muslim communities during COVID-19. \nRegistration details:\nPlease click the link below to register and you will be sent the Zoom link and password via e-mail shortly before the event. \nYou do not need to download Zoom or have an account – simply click on the link we send you and put in the password.
