“Lessons of Hanukkah: Responding to Anti-Semitism in America” ~ Rev. Kit Ketcham.

The Jewish festival of Hanukkah begins at sundown on Dec. 2 and ends 8 days later on Dec. 10.  It is not “Jewish Christmas” but a recognition of the courage and fortitude of Jewish fighters in an epic battle against the Syrian Greek army.  There are messages for our lives today in the story of Hanukkah, especially as we experience the rise of antisemitism in our communities.

As always, there will be Religious Education for the children following the “Moment with the Children” near the beginning of the service.  After the service the monthly potluck lunch will be held in the Mason’s Hall across 16th St. from the PAC.  Everyone is welcome!
