A Holocaust Remembrance 
Please join us on Wednesday, April 23, at 7:30 p.m., on Zoom, 
when we will light our candles together
in memory of the six million.

The Yellow Candle Project is a moving tribute to the six million.
Each participating family will receive a yellow candle to be lighted at home, when all will join together on Zoom to share this  solemn experience. Attached to each candle is the name of a child who died in the Holocaust.
Please remember this child in your prayers.

Your yellow candle’s flame can serve as a moving reminder of the evil effects of hatered that vanquished Jewish populations in major cities and in
peaceful villages alike, all across Europe.

Should you wish to acknowledge your gift candle with a charitable donation, we suggest an amount or multiple of $18, the number that represents life — chai. Donations can be made  through the Tifereth Israel Website
​​​​​​​( www.tiferethisraelgreenport.org/donate ).

This year, your donations to the project will be used to support an upcoming field trip to the Museum of Jewish Heritage-A Living Memorial to the Holocaust for Greenport High School 10th graders. Studying the events that led to the
Holocaust are part of the Social Studies curriculum at that grade level.

We welcome and appreciate your support of our efforts in this Shoah commemoration, and in our ongoing education programs.

We look forward to participating with you and members of the
North Fork Reform Synagogue in this night of remembrance
Wednesday, April 23, at  7:30 p.m. on Zoom.
The program will be led by Rabbi Gadi Capela and Rabbi Barbara Sheryll.
