An Evening of Unity, Solidarity and Prayer in response to the Poway Chabad House shooting

Event Date: 
May 3, 2019 - 7:00pm

Chabad at Lake Tahoe is holding an "Evening of Unity, Solidarity and Prayer" in response in the wake of the horrific Poway Chabad House shooting that left one dead and three injured.

“Our hearts are shattered by the cold-blooded attack on our brothers and sisters—Jews of all walks of life gathered at Chabad of Poway in celebration and prayer to the Almighty on Shabbat and the final day of Passover,” said Rabbi Mordey Richler. “We mourn the holy soul of Lori Gilbert-Kaye, and we pray for the healing of all the injured.”

“With the passing of Lori Kaye, the world became darker. We can only respond to darkness by adding in light,” said Richler. “That's why we're asking that this Shabbat, go to your Chabad or local synagogue. Bring a friend and encourage others to #ShareShabbat.”

The community is invited to share in this evening at 7:00 p.m. on May 3. Email Info@JewishTahoe.com to RSVP and receive the location.
