    The Jewish Community Center of Houston presents Does Judaism Believe in Karma?, presented Rabbi Judith Abrams, Ph.D.,(pictured)  for four Wednesdays, beginning October 6.

    The Jerusalem Talmud presents many extensive texts on the idea of Karma: that the energy we send out is the energy that returns to us. This class will examine the many stories and teachings about Jewish Karma and how it works. No Talmud study background or Hebrew is needed for this class.

    Judith Z. Abrams was ordained at Hebrew Union College in 1985. She earned her Ph.D. in Rabbinic Literature from the Baltimore Hebrew University in 1993. Rabbi Abrams is the founder and director of Maqom: A School for Adult Talmud Study, where everyone, regardless of their background, can learn. She received the Covenant Award for outstanding performance in the field of Jewish Education. She teaches through the Siegal College Distance Learning Program and the ALEPH rabbinic program and is the author of many books about Talmud and prayer.

    Kulanu: An Adult Jewish Learning Collaborative: Kulanu is an initiative for adult Jewish learning developed in cooperation with Jewish organizations across Houston. Kulanu, which means "all of us," is designed to offer learning opportunities for adults of all backgrounds and interests.

    The JCC is pleased to partner with Maqom, a school fo adult Talmud study, founded and directed by Rabbi Judith Z. Abrams, Ph.D.
