What’s New

  Last Shabbat, we witnessed the deadliest act of anti-Semitism in North American history — the attack at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh. This Shabbat, we are responding with our greatest show of solidarity: a community-wide Solidarity Shabbat with the Jewish community of Pittsburgh.This weekend, November 2-3, we are calling on Jews across Greater New Haven to #ShowUpForShabbat at local synagogues to honor the victims of the Tree of Life massacre in Pittsburgh. Together, we will remember the 11 Jews who were killed  and show the world that love triumphs over hate.What do we do when the unspeakable happens? We stand together.Help us honor their memory and repudiate the poisonous legacy of anti-Semitism by filling our congregations during Shabbat this weekend as a proud and unified community.
