All are welcome!

Please join us the morning of Wednesday, June 4th for the dedication of our Monument to Lost Souls.

Hear how Greg Jehanian, retired stone mason, learned about Har Hasetim and partnered with the Friends of the GJMC to donate his masterful skills for this project. Rabbi Beth Kalisch from Beth David Reform Congregation will lead a Yizkor Monument service.

The Monument to Lost Souls will forever be a reminder of all those who reside in Har Hasetim without stones bearing their names. May their memory be a blessing.
