On Sunday, May 8th, we will commemorate Yom Hazikaron, Israel's Remembrance Day for those who fell in the struggle defending the State of Israel, the victims of terror and representatives of Israel who were killed during their missions abroad.
For us, this is one of the most meaningful days of the year. We would like to invite you and the entire community to join us.
Let us come together to remember our fallen brothers and sisters, to express our solidarity with their families and with the State and the people of Israel.
We hope to see you there.
***Please arrive without purses or bags to expedite security. Thank you.***
***The event will be conducted in both Hebrew and English.***
