Erev Yom HaShoah


  • Kol Shalom, Community for Humanistic Judaism 2420 Northeast Sandy Boulevard Portland, OR, 97232 United States (map)

On this day we remember and grieve for the six million innocent Jews brutally murdered by the Nazis in the Holocaust in their purpose driven genocide. We remember the heroic resistance of Jews to that Holocaust. We grieve for the survivors and their families whose lives can never be the same. We deeply hope that never forgetting the Holocaust will help prevent future attempts at genocide for innocent people of all ethnicities, religions and life choices.
