SUMMER UNIVERSITY 2007- Roma, Italy "Year after year, since 1984, the last week of August has become a right of passage for some six hundred European Jewish students, in a fresh and dynamic European Jewish tradition. Now known as Summer University—the single largest European Jewish event to occur every year, it is one of Europe’s largest and most successful youth programs. This year EUJS has decided to bring its largest annual event next to Rome between the 26th of August and the 2nd of September 2007. Rome is home to one of the oldest Jewish Community in Europe, predating even the advent of Christianity, Today it is still home to a thriving, active, and prosperous Jewish community. Exploiting this Jewish heritage and continuity, EUJS will bring this year’s largest Jewish youth gathering to the home of pasta, pizza and the Godfather – Italy." Part of an article by Tina Sas, from Romania, about this year's Summer U: "...It is just a week ago when I was walking along with some friends of mine through
the Jewish Quarter In Rome, Italy, and across the Big Synagogue we saw at a
window, a man cleaning a shofar. it reminded me that we are in the month of
Elul, when we all should think about the good and the bad in the year that is
ending, but also look forward to the brand New Year. And of, course, wish for
the best, wish for the sweetness of honey in our lives. in that order, I wish
everyone SHANA TOVA UMETUKAH and GMAR HATIMA TOVA,
and lots of strength and sweetness!" |
