SUMMARY:One Year Commemoration of the October 7 Massacre in Israel ⏺️
DESCRIPTION:On October 7\, 2023\, Israel endured the deadliest attack on Jewish people in a single day since the Holocaust. On Simchat Torah\, a celebratory holiday of our Jewish heritage and pride\, Hamas terrorists breached the southern Gaza border and took 1\,200 innocent lives. There are still more than 100 hostages still in Gaza from more than eight different nations\, showing that this is not just a Jewish or Israeli issue. It is an issue of humanity. And we must stand together to find comfort\, support\, and healing. \nIsrael remains a focal point in our work and community efforts. In light of recent events and the ongoing captivity of hostages\, we are committed to supporting those affected alongside our overseas partners. As we continue these vital efforts\, we must look forward and consider how we\, as a community\, will come together to mark the tragic events of October 7. Remembering is a fundamental aspect of Jewish tradition\, and we must honor those who lost their lives while remaining vigilant in safeguarding our freedom to practice our faith. \nThe Israeli government established an annual national day of remembrance on the Hebrew date of the 24th of Tishrei. For the first anniversary of this tragedy\, an additional ceremony will be held on the Gregorian date of October 7. Here in Atlanta\, the Jewish Federation of Greater Atlanta is organizing two significant community events to observe these dates: the Gregorian anniversary on October 7 and the Hebrew anniversary on October 27. Join AA and many Jewish Atlanta organizations for these meaningful events. \nThe event on October 27 is an experiential and educational program. It will feature an expo of ways to engage with Israel\, educational sessions led by community experts\, hands-on activities\, and a ceremony honoring the victims. \nRegistration is required to attend these events (links below). \n Register for October 7\n Register for October 27
