Our guest presenter for the Shoah Commemoration Service this coming Sunday, Agi Rubin, will not be able to be with us. She has been ordered by her doctor to remain in bed.

Ruth Webber has graciously said yes to be with us on Sunday.

RUTH WEBBER was about 5 years old when the war started. Her family was first moved into the Ostrowiec ghetto and then lived in the following camps; Bodzechow, Sandomierz, Starachowice, Austrovietz, Annopol and finally Auschwitz. Her mother survived the war but her father died on the last transport out of Auschwitz. Ruth was in the children's block of Auschwitz when it was liberated by the Russians on Jan. 27, 1945.

HELP US get the word out about this extraordinary event and opportunity. Hate and bigotry whether racial, ethnic, or religious – and often times a combination of all three – is no stranger in our world. We need to hear, to learn, to seek understanding.

Greetings from the Shoah Remembrance Committee of Muskegon

The Journey 2009-2010

The purpose of the Journey is to bring a diverse group of 8th grade students into a community of learning and reflection on shared values that address hate, violence, bigotry, and promote a good sense of civic mindedness,  with the Shoah as a symbol of the injustices done to humanity.

 

All information has gone to middle school principals and religious leaders. Sometimes the information makes it to the population we have in mind and sometimes it does not. We are asking for your help in disseminating the information to those families who have students who will be entering grades 8 or 9 in September 2009.

Materials for parents, students and yeachers may be requested from the SRCM: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . If you are willing and know of some one who could be a potential candidate for the Journey, please request some material and pass it on.

Interview process will begin after the Easter/Passover holidays. Registrations should be in by April 30th.
