Our goal is to publicly ask him for a follow up meeting to speak about issues of - welcoming, loving, embracing the stranger - as it pertains to welcoming immigrants and refugees.
Passover Yizkor Service Tuesday, Apr 18th 7:00p to 9:00p On the eighth day of Passover it is customary to recite the Yizkor service. This is one of many ways that Jewish tradition remembers the lives of those that died and intertwines them with our own. This year we will be celebrating this service at 7PM with the hope that more of our community will be able to participate in the service.
