KOL HASKALAH NIZKOR MEMORIAL SERVICE
I will lead a live online Nizkor memorial service for Kol Haskalah on Thursday, September 16th, at 5pm. We hope to make this a meaningful way to connect as a community and remember our loved ones who are gone. If you would like to have the names of your loved ones read during the service, please fill out this form. For instructions on how to join the virtual Nizkor service, please send a request to khaskalah@gmail.com. If you are interested in participating by doing readings or singing (live or pre-recorded) please let me know. All ages welcome!
Stay tuned for more information about membership, our plans for the year, and Sunday School, and don't hesitate to contact me if you have suggestions or can offer your time to support our congregation.
Wishing everyone health and happiness in the year to come!
Karen Century
President, Kol Haskalah
