“We are experiencing a high level of uncertainty and fear,” the Church says in a statement as recalls of the “most recently profound acts of anti-Semitic violence in New York during the celebration of Hanukkah.”
At the event, open to residents of any religion or denomination, attendees will gather for a time of prayer, reflection, music, and dialogue. It will take place at the Church building (19 Church Road, MA 01545) on Sunday, January 19th, from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM.
