Oct. 7 marks a painful year for the Jewish community

The High Holidays will mark a particularly emotional time for Baltimore’s Jewish community. This year, the period between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur will mark one year since the deadliest single day for the world’s Jewish population since the Holocaust. The October 7 attack on Israel touched all aspects of our local Jewish community and, for many, shook our confidence in Israel as our worldwide place of safe refuge.
