Please join us — United Jewish Communities of MetroWest NJ, JCC MetroWest, and the Rabbinical College of America — at a memorial and solidarity service, to be held in remembrance and honor of the many victims of last week’s heinous terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India.

The MetroWest community at large will be gathering together to share our thoughts and prayers and express our sadness over the tragedy that struck so many innocent people. In particular, we will remember and honor the victims in the Chabad House in Mumbai, Rabbi Gavriel and Rivkah Holtzberg, Chabad Lubavitch emissaries who were murdered along with their guests as they were being held hostage by the terrorists.

Featured speakers will include:
   Governor Jon Corzine
   The Honorable Cory Booker, Mayor of Newark

   Benjamin Krasna, Deputy Counsel General for Israel

We invite you to join us in a community expression of condemnation of these latest acts of slaughter and a statement of solidarity with the families, friends, and colleagues of the victims. All who hope for peace and the well-being of everyone are welcome.
