New Rituals for New Life Stages with Rabbi Richard Address

Living Longer, Living Better: How Jewish Texts and Traditions Can Help Navigate the Revolution in Longevity

In this final session, we will examine the explosion of creative rituals and prayers that speak to new stages of life that have been created as a result of longevity. We will look at new and re-interpreted prayers and rituals that speak to such issues as older adult co-habitation without marriage, the removal of a wedding ring after mourning, signing your advance directive, and the re-definition of adultery in light of Alzheimer's and dementia.
