"Rough Sleepers" Book Discussion and the Stone-Soup Kitchen at TBJ

Sunday, November 23, 2025 3 Kislev 5786

1:00 PM - 4:00 PMexact times tbd

Join Adult Ed and Social Action on Sunday, November 23rd at 1pm to read and discuss the book Rough Sleepers by Tracy Kidder (author of Mountains Beyond Mountains).   Kidder chronicles the lives (and deaths) of unhoused people in Boston through the work of Dr. Jim O'Connell and his street outreach team.  

We will gather in the TBJ kitchen at 1pm to make a pot of "Stone Soup". Bring a dairy or parve ingredient to add to the pot or something to eat with the soup (for the safety of those with food allergies and sensitivities, please list all ingredients). 

Never heard of Stone Soup?  Here is a "recipe" for inspiration.  https://www.forksoverknives.com/recipes/vegan-soups-stews/vegetable-stone-soup/

At about 1:30 we will discuss the book while our soup simmers.  When it is ready we will share our pot of soup and brainstorm ways to support our local unhoused community.  

Please read the book prior to 11/23/25. If purchasing the book is a hardship, please reach out to the TBJ office and we will happily and quietly help you.

There is no cost for this fun and educational event. Please do register below so we can know how many people to expect.

This will be a dairy/parve meal. We are in need of gluten-free and dairy-free items as well.
Please list the dishes and all ingredients, as well as if the dish is GF, dairy-free, etc.
Please list any dietary restrictions you may have as well.
