We are all seeing horrific news and images about the current situation for immigrants and refugees, both locally and around the country. How did we get to this situation? What is happening in Oregon and what can we do about it? Why is this important for us as Jews? Havurah's Sanctuary Committee is presenting a three-session class for Havurah members to dive into these topics. We will have presentations on the History of Immigration, the Current Situation, along with the Jewish perspective. Members are welcome to join us. Please RSVP below. If you can't make all classes, no problem. If childcare is needed, please send a quick email to info@havurahshalom.org. -
