Sunday – Friday: The Best Part of Waking Up Is Gemara In Your Kup!

Did you know that LINK has an active learning program for men six mornings a week on Sundays at 7:00 AM and Mon through Fri at 5:45 AM? If you’ve been wanting to develop your textual & conceptual skills in the study of Talmud, call us today to learn more & to join this free program, called Gemara In Your Kup. Call or email Rabbi Asher Brander at rabbi@kehilla.org or @ (310) 441-5288 x21 for information and for placement in one of our three groups. Come find out why 25 men sacrifice their sleep for the joy of mastering the Talmud!

Sundays @ 9:15 AM : Kollel Yom Rishon

Individualized learning with the Kollel scholars: one-on-one (or one-on-two or three).

Mondays @ 8:00 PM : Not-Just Chumash & Rashi Join the dozens who come each week to enjoy the Rabbi Brander’s inspirational review of the weekly portion. An hour of analysis with special focus on Rashi, the 11th century dean of Torah commentators. Experience the stories and depth in this weekly offering.

Wednesdays @ 8:00 PM: Partners in Torah

One of the true highlights of the LINK learning schedule is the weekly Partners in Torah — a great hour of one on one learning with peers and faculty rabbis. This energetic hour captures the culture of the classical Yeshiva study style and engrosses you in a common energy of love for learning. Our popular Wednesday night study session brings more than 50 people together in lively textual learning in a classical Beis Midrash setting. For people of all backgrounds and levels,this is the perfect place to find answers to your questions

and gain new study skills in one-on-one learning and small groups. Open to women and men, this is the greatest opportunity to pursue your interest as we are happy to cater a study plan specific for you. It’s like having a workout buddy or personal trainer for your soul. Study groups are also available, such as Talmud Study with Rabbi Brander or Profit from the Prophets with Batyah Brander.
