To every purpose there is a time and a season under heaven. D. A time to weep and a time to play, a time to mourn and a time to dance Ecclesiastes 3
The transition between Memorial Day and Independence Day connects sadness with joy, mourning with celebration. In this time interval, between the sunsets, we will meet for a Havdalah ceremony that was created to fill the emotional space between them and is based on ancient and new, traditional and contemporary sources. Through thought, poetry, prayer and melodies
As every year, this year too, we invite you and your friends, members of the Israeli House of Prayer and the general public, to gather together in the moments of transition between Memorial Day and Independence Day – we will gather together the moments of pain and heartbreak and grow stronger together in moments of celebration and joy.
Wednesday, 3rd Iyar 5782 | 4.5.2022 | 18:00 Beit Shalom Aleichem, Berkovich 2, Tel Aviv
