This Friday, March 22, we will stand together as Jews, Christians, and Muslims in rings of peace — as other faith communities did for us after the Pittsburgh shooting at Tree of Life synagogue — in solidarity with our Muslim neighbors and friends.
As they gather for prayer on Friday afternoon, we will meet outside the mosques listed below. We invite you to mobilize your community to participate at one of these locations.

As Jews, and as faith communities, we decry this and all acts of hatred, and stand together against sinat hinam (baseless hatred), in solidarity with the Muslim faith communities in our midst.
May we all experience peaceful prayer.
L’shalom,
