Congregation Adat Reyim invites you to join us for the Rededication of our 200 year-old Holocaust Torah.
Holocaust survivors and speakers from the Holocaust Museum will be among those who will present.
The Torah was originally from a congregation in Sedlacany, Czechoslavakia. That community was destroyed by the Nazis and their Czechoslovakian collaborators. Our congregation chose to embrace this Torah and it has become a vital part of our community 18 years ago. The Sedlacany Torah is now utilized at every Bar/Bat Mitzvah ceremony at Congregation Adat Reyim. It symbolizes our people's will to survive and our remembrance of those who came before us.
We pass the Torah from generation to generation, signifying the unbroken chain of Jewish tradition to teach our children Torah.
