Light from the Darkness: A Ritual for Holocaust Remembrance

Honoring memory, affirming "never again." As the fragile window of witness closes, here is a new way to commemorate the Holocaust in our homes, our schools, and our communities. Light from the Darkness does all the things the survivors have always asked of us: to tell the story, remember, and learn the lessons. This short and empowering guided experience is filled with song and story, ritual and remembrance, drawing strength from darkness and turning it to action. In Light from the Darkness, the lessons of the Holocaust reinforce the core values of Judaism: remember the evil that you have experienced and make sure that no one ever has to experience such evil again but always celebrate life and your Jewish faith.
