Yom HaShoah Commemoration 5786

Monday, April 13, 7:00 pm

Join in music and memory, prayer and poetry.  Six congregant-families, descendants of survivors of the Shoah, will light six candles for the Six Million.  The centrepiece of our service is when we bear witness to the remarkable story of Saul Shulman’s survival.

Born in 1938 in the small town of Klimontov, Poland, Saul Shulman remembers very little of the peaceful life his family knew before they were transferred to the Tzozmer ghetto.  He was just three years old.  Miraculously, he survived Auschwitz and eventually came to Canada with his mother in 1948.

All are welcome, and we send a special invitation to our B’nei Mitzvah students, our teens, and their parents.  This will be the last generation to hear first-hand testimonials of survivors.  This comes with a great responsibility.
