“The Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia strongly condemns the disturbing antisemitic vandalism that occurred at Temple Beth Hillel – Beth El yesterday. As antisemitism continues to rise nationally and locally, we must work together as a community to make it clear that hate has no place here. We stand with Temple Beth Hillel-Beth El as they address this vandalism while continuing their critical work to unify the Wynnewood Jewish community through prayer, inclusion and love.
We encourage you to join a prayer service tonight, April 1, at 7:00 p.m. at Temple Beth Hillel-Beth El to show the power of our unity and solidarity. Please plan on arriving early for security purposes. You can learn more about the event by clicking here.”
Thank you ABC Philadelphia for covering this important program.
