International Holocaust Remembrance Day Service
With Dr. Anita Shapira
Friday Night Worship Services
At this fraught moment, internationally acclaimed historian and Holocaust survivor Dr. Anita Shapira will speak during services in memory of those who survived, and the six million, including her parents, who did not.
Smuggled out of the Warsaw Ghetto as a toddler, Shapira spent the war in a convent and was then adopted by a Jewish couple who moved with her to Palestine in 1947. Founder of the Yitzhak Rabin Center, professor emerita of Jewish history at Tel Aviv University and former head of the Weizmann Institute for the Study of Zionism, she is the author of seven books, editor of four more and winner of both the National Jewish Book Award and the Israel Prize.
