ALL INVITED TO TUESDAY, NOV. 22’s “INTERFAITH THANKSGIVING SERVICE”

AT TEMPLE BETH HILLEL IN SOUTH WINDSOR

All Greater Hartford residents are invited to a special Interfaith Thanksgiving Service, led by clergy of different religions. On Tuesday, November 22 at 7:00 p.m., Temple Beth Hillel will host South Windsor’s annual Interfaith Thanksgiving Service in its sanctuary at 20 Baker Lane in South Windsor, CT. People do not need to belong to a house of worship to attend this free service.

The annual free event will feature inspirational readings and comments, music and songs from Temple Beth Hillel’s Rabbi Jeffrey Glickman and Cantor Scott Harris, and many area clergy.

“We welcome everyone to come to our annual interfaith service,” explains Rabbi Jeffrey Glickman of Temple Beth Hillel. “This event is a wonderful community-wide tradition, featuring spiritual leaders from avariety of houses of worship in South Windsor and beyond who present different portions of the program. It is an opportunity to showcase how America's treasure is the way we celebrate diversity."

“When I pray in an interfaith community, I am strengthened and lifted up by the truth that I am not alone,”says Cantor Scott Harris of Temple Beth Hillel. “This evening that brings together good people of many faiths, backgrounds, and truths: is a sanctuary filled with gratitude, not just for our gifts, but for the gift of our community beyond our own doorsteps. It is a presence that reminds us that we are here for each other, and with each other.”

Masks are optional inside the synagogue. Anyone, anywhere can watch via live-stream on www.tbhsw.org or on Temple Beth Hillel’s Facebook page: www.Facebook.com/tbhsw
