We are devasted by the return of four hostage bodies today in Israel. Their lives, filled with love and promise, were stolen from this world far too soon.

Given the collective heartbreak our community is feeling, please join UJA staff for a virtual memorial today at 2:00 PM, during which we will hear prayers from Rabbi Rafi Lipner, poems from UJA ShinShinim, and sing HaTikvah. As we mourn these losses, it is paramount to continue uniting as one community.

You can stream our gathering on Facebook, Instagram, or Zoom. A recording will also be made available afterward.
