Presence, Patience and Love at the Rothko Chapel “Twelve Moments” series continues with Rabbi Scott Hausman-Weiss

Sometimes making a little change can be a big challenge.

Rabbi Scott Hausman-Weiss says the first step is learning to love who and where you are now – before moving forward and heading to where you want to be.
The Rabbi will be leading a guided, silent and reflective meditation at noon on Wednesday, Sept. 7 at the Rothko Chapel at 3900 Yupon. Suggested donation is $10.

Hausman-Weiss, the spiritual leader of Congregation Shma Koleinu, was ordained from the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion with master’s
degrees in Hebrew Letters and Jewish Education. He served as senior rabbi of Emanu El, Houston from 2009 to 2011.

“Rabbi Scott’s message in this guided experience is the importance of embracing presence, patience and love in our pursuit of positive change” Rothko Chapel’s program and community engagement director Ashley Clemmer Hoffman said. “We looking forward to shared learning around attentiveness and self-acceptance with the Houston community.”

The event is a continuation of Rothko Chapel’s meditation series, “Twelve Moments: Experiencing Spiritual and Faith Traditions,” aimed at helping people learn spiritual practices to quiet, center, expand and renew their minds.

The “Twelve Moments” series is co-sponsored by Ligmincha Texas Institute, The Jung Center of Houston, M. D. Anderson Cancer Center and the Rothko Chapel.
