Last night, 750+ Clevelanders gathered in mourning for the three kidnapped Israeli boys. Our hearts broken, we united as a Jewish community in a show of support for the grieving families, and for the state of Israel. Moved by the memorial, one community member said, "Let us honor the memory of the victims by performing a mitzvah or giving tzedakah and promoting good in the world." While we may live miles apart, our hearts are close together. May their memories forever be a blessing. Thank you to the rabbis, cantors, public officials, and community members who made last night a deeply meaningful experience for all of us who were able to attend.
