Apple picking, bowling, and laser tag with the group

Volunteering at HUC-JIR Soup Kitchen in NYC

Yom Hashoah Candle Lighting
Wednesday, Apr 7th 6:30pm to 7:00pm
We hope that you will symbolically join with other members of our synagogue by lighting one candle on Yom HaShoah, which begins Wednesday evening, April 7. Yom HaShoah candles represent a highly visible symbol of both the yellow badge that Jews were forced to wear under Nazi occupation and the promise that we can make our world a better place to live. TINW Brotherhood will distribute candles to CJL families and TINW congregants prior to Yom Hashoah. Donation graciously accepted to continue this program.
