Most men who have attended the Jewish Men's Retreat identify participation in Mishpacha Groups as the highlight of their weekend. Menschwork is excited to announce the development of online Mishpacha Groups.

What's an Online Mishpacha Group?
The JPS dictionary defines Mishpacha as: "Literally, 'family'. ...The word conveys a warm feeling of friendship." During the JMR weekend, we create several small Mishpacha of 5-8 men. Each group meets three times during the weekend to explore how the retreat's theme (which is derived from the Shabbat parsha) applies to their lives. It is a chance to explore aloud one's inner self confidentially without feeling evaluated or criticized. Many participants feel that their Mishpacha group experience draws their deepest response and is the most important part of a very vital Jewish Men's Retreat.
Menschwork's Virtual Mishpacha Groups follow the same principle. Instead of meeting in person over a weekend, each group will meet online at a designated time (weekly or monthly) for a pre-determined number of times.
Here is a short short video explaining a Mishpacha Group.
