Compact of Conservative Jewish Commitment
Can’t make it to your synagogue for adult education? Too busy? It’s a subject you’ve already studied?
Then United Synagogue’s Compact might be just right for you. Compact, now entering its eighth year, is a free publication that is posted on the United Synagogue website just before rosh chodesh each month.
Read Compact online or download the 15- or 16-page document for a month’s worth of quick learning. Compact is prepared for Conservative Jews, both professionals – clergy, faculty, staff and youth leaders – and laypeople. Rabbis can forward it to college students, congregation members, board leaders, and anyone else they choose. The material can be used for chavurah study groups, and bulletin editors can save, cut, paste and copy Compact to use in their synagogue bulletins. Compact is for every Jew who wants to know a little more, do a little more, or give a little more.
