Yellow Candle
Program
In late April all congregation
members received a special Yom
HaShoah Yellow Candle to be lit
on the evening of Monday, May 1,
27 Nissan, 5760, in memory of
those who lost their lives in the
Holocaust.
Each year the Vav Class and the
Temple Israel Men’s Club com
bine efforts in remembering the
six million Jews. The incoming
B’nai Mitzvah class, as part of
their Jewish education program,
participate in a month long
Holocaust study project which
includes each student interviewing
either a death camp survivor or
someone who lived during this
time.
The students culminate their
experience by joining the Men’s
Club in a youth Mission to
Washington, D.C. where they
spend a full afternoon learning
first hand about the Holocaust at
the U.S. Holocaust Memorial
Museum.
Your donations as part of the
Yom HaShoah Yellow Candle
Program help to make the Youth
Mission possible. For those who
have already given, many thanks.
For those who are yet to give,
please help us ensure the message
of freedom and tolerance gets
passed to another generation.
During the weekend of March
1st, the students assisted the Men’s
Club in preparing the 800 Yellow
candles for mailing.
