Tisha B’Av Service

Tisha B’Av (the 9th of the Jewish month of Av) is a fast day that commemorates the destruction of the First and Second Temples. It has also become a general day of mourning for other major disasters that have befallen the Jewish People, from the Edict of Expulsion from England in 1290 to the mass deportation of Jews from the Warsaw Ghetto.

CJC, Oseh Shalom and Mishkan Torah will come together for this special virtual
service.

The program – Attacking Sinat Chinam – Baseless Hatred  – by Rooting Out Racism within our own Jewish Communities will begin promptly at 7:30pm. The reading of Aycha will begin around 8:15pm.

In preparation of the service,  you may want to prepare your space to set the mood for Tisha b’Av, turning down the lights, not being interrupted, lighting a candle.
