12th Annual 24-Hour Reading of the Names Holocaust Remembrance Vigil

Congregation Beth Torah invites you to the 12th Annual 24-Hour Reading of the Names “Unto Every Person There is a Name” Holocaust Remembrance Vigil.  Come “give witness” by listening and/or reading the names of Holocaust victims and walk through a mini Holocaust museum while rekindling the victims’ spirits.  This is the third year that Congregation Beth Torah has warmly reached out to the LGBT community to participate in this event in recognition of the LGBT victims of the holocaust.   

Members of the LGBT Community and allies will be reading names from 9:45pm – 10:15pm on Saturday, April 6, 2013.   We will be reading names from a list of LGBT holocaust victims that was provided to us by Edward (Ted) Phillips, Ph.D. Director of Exhibitions at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington DC.  You are encouraged to join us in reading names or attending the vigil to listen and bear witness to the holocaust victims.  If you would like to join those who will be reading names, please contact:
