Gather with us in Philadelphia, March 12–15, 2026, for Reconstructing Judaism’s Convention, B’Yachad: Rekindling Light and Joy!

 In these times, when the world threatens to dim our shared light, we are called to return—to community, to the practices that sustain us, and to the joy that renews us. 
 
Join us as we pray, learn and reflect together in a sacred space set apart from the everyday. Here, we will rekindle joy, illuminate our values and strengthen the collective spirit of our movement. Bring your light, your questions, your dreams—let’s build the world we yearn to live in, together. 

לַיְּהוּדִים הָיְתָה אוֹרָה וְשִׂמְחָה וְשָׂשֹׂן וִיקָר 

La-yehudim haytah orah v’simcha, v’sasson, vikar 
“There was light and joy, gladness and honor for the Jewish people.” —Esther 8:16
