Congregation Brit Shalom

As we mourn the loss within the Jewish community in Australia, we have the opportunity to join together as a congregation in solidarity.

We have three events this week for community, learning, and prayer. Let’s light Hanukkah candles together to bring more light into the world—and let us celebrate community both within the synagogue and in the State College area.

You can find information about these events (and more) on our website: https://www.britshalomstatecollege.org/

(And don’t forget about our Blood Drive on December 24! See our Event for details about how to sign up!
