Remembering, Honoring, Bearing Witness

On October 7, 2023, the lives of countless Israelis were forever changed. We gather as a community to remember those lost, to pray for those still in captivity, and to bear witness to the stories of survival and resilience.

This year’s program honors the memory of At Paul’s Noi Maudi, z”l — a joyful, compassionate, and creative young man who was murdered while fleeing the “Psyduck” music festival.

We will also hear the testimony of Yoni Viloga, 28, of Kibbutz Mefalsim. His story is one of courage, quick thinking, and the will to survive.

Co-sponsored by Beth Jacob, Mt. Zion, Temple of Aaron, and St. Paul Jewish Federation.

Registration REQUIRED Beth-Jacob.org/Oct7

The Encampments

On Tisha B’Av we gathered to watch the documentary October H8TE – The Fight for the Soul of America.

To understand the moment we are living in, we now present the documentary

The Encampments

to hear the voices of those protesting in their own words.

A discussion led by Rabbi Tamar Magill-Grimm and Rabbi Adam Spilker will follow the film.
