Seder Nashim is a discussion series for women only focusing on topics that touch us all, including infertility, loss, being single in the Orthodox community, and much more. We encourage you to come and listen to the stories of others and to participate by sharing your own experiences. Classes are scheduled for various shabbatot throughout the year. Discussion take place at members’ homes. Please see the seat announcements for location and speakers.

So much of our community life centers about the nuclear family. But, what if you didn't get married at 25 and have 3 kids? What if your marriage ended in divorce or you are a widow? When life happens, how does your role within the community change? Is there a role within an orthodox community for a woman who has never married? In this session, we'll hear from women whose lives haven't followed the traditional path. We'll learn how they view our community as well as how they view themselves within the BDJ family. Are we being inclusive or exclusive?
