This Saturday night marks Tisha B’av, a day of Jewish mourning. Many Jewish people choose to fast on this day and observe various mourning rituals. Throughout Jewish history, there have been many tragic occurrences on Tisha B’av, including the destruction of both historic Jewish temples in Jerusalem.
At NECHAMA, we are intimately aware of how destruction can upend our lives and we are committed to being a source of comfort for those experiencing disasters. Additionally, we invite you to peruse our Tisha B’av supplement, curated by our Jewish Education and Engagement consultant: Rabbi Scott Klein. Click the link below to access it:
