For over 14 years, the Emet Leaders Fellowship has provided thousands of unaffiliated Jewish college students with an introduction to Judaism and their first Shabbos experience. It is a program that has inspired young adults to make a deeper commitment to Judaism as they set the course for their professional and personal lives. This past March, Emet’s fellowships were in full swing at St. John’s University, Stony Brook University, and Baruch College, as well as in Forest Hills for students from multiple campuses. Students were in the midst of weekly learning sessions with Emet educators and were participating in impactful Shabbatons. They were even planning the program’s summer highlight – a trip to historical sites in Poland and Prague. Then, suddenly, the semester was paused when campuses were forced to shutter their doors in response to COVID-19. In the throes of this uncertainty, Emet’s educators and students rose to the challenge of sustaining the seeds of religious growth that had been planted.
