With the youngest Shoah survivors growing older, we are the final generation who will hear their stories first-hand.

Tova Friedman, mother of AC member Gadi Friedman, is one of the very youngest Auschwitz survivors, having entered that prison before her 6th birthday. Tova will join Ansche Chesed on Shabbat, January 21, to share the remarkable story she recounts in her new book  The Daughter of Auschwitz: My Story of Resilience, Survival and Hope. Please join us to think about the horror of the past and the demands to build a better future.

All are welcome to join us after services for Kiddush and a presentation from our speaker. If you plan to attend, please make a donation to the Kiddush Fund so we have enough food for everyone to enjoy.

After Kiddush, we will have a processing discussion for 6th and 7th grade families with Rabbi Yael and Aliza in the Chapel.
