On the holiday of Tisha B'Av, we mourn the destruction of the First and Second Temples in Jerusalem, the expulsions of the Jews from England in 1290 and Spain in 1492, and many other tragedies that have befallen the Jewish people on this day throughout history.
Monday, August 12th • beginning at 6:00pm
Join us beginning at 6:00pm for Seudah Ha’mafseket (The Meal Before the Fast), followed by a viewing of the new film, Legends of Destruction at 6:30pm. This provocative movie tells the story of the destruction of the Temple and the fall of Jerusalem to the Romans, displayed in a one-of-a-kind production through oil paintings. At 8:30pm, we will hold our Erev Tisha B’Av service (in-person or via livestream) including the reading of the Megillat Eicha, the Scroll of Lamentations.
Tuesday, August 13th • beginning at 9:30am
Join us at 9:30am for our Tisha B’Av morning service followed by a text study with Rabbi Spector, analyzing themes of Tisha B’Av and divisions within American society. Our service will be held in-person or via livestream.
