The OU Pardes Torah Project
In an age when Jews the world over are
searching for a more meaningful life, the Orthodox Union has developed a Spiritual
Fitness Program to aid you, your family, your friends and your community in this quest
- The Pardes Project.
How Does It Work?
Every month, a fully translated Torah source book on a particularly compelling,
provocative, contemporary topic is distributed by the OU - without charge*
- to the registered groups in the project.
The source books are especially designed to maximize the participation of the individual
within a group setting and can be used equally by those with strong Torah backgrounds and
those to whom this is the first foray into the world of Torah learning.
Does It Work?
Yes! In a few short months, the OU Pardes Torah Project has successfully formed nearly two
thousand Torah discussion groups throughout North and South America, Israel, South Africa,
Great Britain and Australia, in homes, shuls and on 50 college campuses.
As the flagship of the OU's Department of Jewish Education, the OU Pardes Torah Project
has seen results that have been nothing short of amazing.
The material, dealing with provocotive
topics such as: Love & Hate; How to Disagree; Repairing the Future; Why Jews Make
News and Getting High - What is wrong with the use
of alcohol and drugs is appropriate
regardless of religious knowledge, affiliation or background
