Antisemitism and the Ukrainian war are just two of many issues that Federation tackles. If you’re receiving this email, you are probably aware of Federation’s work, but many people in the Jewish community are not. Jewish Federation of Greater Atlanta is proud to announce that on Friday, November 11 and Saturday, November 12, synagogues across the metro area will be observing Federation Shabbat and learning more about our efforts to make life better for Jews (and all people) in Atlanta and around the world.
Congregants throughout Atlanta will hear about Federation’s partnerships with synagogues and the initiatives we work on together: sending children to Jewish summer camps, sponsoring teens, college students and adults on trips to Israel, training pre-school and religious school professionals on best practices for innovation and inclusion in the classroom, helping older adults stay independent, teaching our teens and young adults to address antisemitism, and making our synagogues safe and secure for all.
To join in, all you have to do is attend your regular weekly services. The following synagogues will be participating:
Ahavath Achim Synagogue
Chabad Intown | Virginia Highlands
Congregation Bet Haverim
Congregation Beth Shalom
Congregation B’nai Torah
Congregation Etz Chaim
Congregation Gesher L’Torah
