HOLOCAUST REMEMBRANCE SERVICE


Date:April 22nd, 2012
Time:7:00pm
Information:St. George's will host the 35th Annual Interfaith Holocaust Remembrance Service. The event begins with an opening prayer at the Jefferson School on Ridgewood Road at 5:45 p.m. We'll then walk to the church; the service begins at 7 p.m. 

The service has become an important tradition to the communities of Maplewood and South Orange, featuring many holocaust survivors as keynote speakers through the years. This year, Abraham "Abe" Foxman, National Director of the Anti-Defamation League, will be the main speaker. 

This is the first time since the service began 35 years ago that St. George's is hosting the event.
