10-7-23 One-Year Commemoration
October 7, 2024 marks one year since Hamas launched its attacks on Israel, murdering more than 1,200 people, kidnapping more than 250 others, and drastically changing our world.
What hasn’t changed is the undeniable strength and resilience of our Jewish community.
This October 7, join the Jewish Federation of Cleveland for a community-wide gathering to remember all those who were lost or stolen a year ago, mourn all those killed in Israel and in Gaza because of Hamas since that day, and pray for the day when neighbors can live side by side in peace.
