Friday, Aug 23, 5:30-8:30 pm at the picnic tables off SW Vermont St in Gabriel Park for our third “Shabbat in the Park” of the summer led by Rabbi Hannah and Hazzan Baruch. We’ll start with a potluck picnic (vegetarian/fish) at 5:30, and the service itself will start around 6:30. Having a Shabbat service once a month during the summer has become a beloved tradition at P’nai Or. There will be picnic tables and benches, but please bring a camp chair for your comfort if you wish.
Join Congregation Neveh Shalom for their weekly Shabbat outdoors on the plaza! From now through September, every Friday night at 6:15 pm, you can enjoy our beautiful Portland summer evenings singing, praying and schmoozing outside on our upper plaza!
If the weather doesn’t allow us to be outside, we will meet in the Stampfer Chapel.
This Sunday the route is the Green Loop of Downtown and Central Inner Eastside and goes right by OJMCHE. Come visit the museum, which will be tabling in the North Park Blocks with the Jewish Federation of Greater Portland and Mittleman Jewish Community Center. Stop by and say hi! Find out more about Sunday Parkways here.Please join OJMCHE for free public tours of the Oregon Holocaust Memorial.
While the Oregon Holocaust Memorial is open during all park hours, on the following summer Sundays of July 28, Aug 25, and Sept 22, knowledgeable OJMCHE docents will be on hand to give tours of the Memorial from 1-2pm. Many docents are Holocaust survivors and family members with personal stories to share.
The Memorial was dedicated in 2004 and, as the stewards, OJMCHE works to teach the lessons of the Holocaust, pay homage to those who lost their lives and provide hope that future generations will learn to honor the rights of all people. Each year hundreds of school children tour the Memorial with OJMCHE docents. To schedule a tour for your school or organization click call 503-226-3600.
The Oregon Holocaust Memorial is located in Washington Park at the intersection of SW Washington Way & Wright Avenue.
