Queer Tribe Retreat

Join Tribe 12’s Queer Tribe for a Shabbat experience in the Poconos surrounded by beautiful sights and wonderful people!

This Tribe 12 Retreat is for all queer-identified people interested in building Jewish community in the Philadelphia area and looking for an opportunity to relax, unwind and celebrate Shabbat. This weekend retreat in Lake Harmony is an invitation to step out of your everyday life and into Jewish time. Make new friends and/or deepen your connection with existing community while exploring what Shabbat means to you. There will be a mix of guided group activities and free time to explore nature, journal, rest and recharge.
