    logo_jewishcommunitySedona AZ (April 19, 2019) – Holocaust Remembrance Day will be observed on Sunday April 28 from 2 – 4 p.m. at the Jewish Community of Sedona and the Verde Valley, at 100 Meadowlark Drive. Interfaith clergy will participate with readings. The actual date this year is May 2, marking the uprising of the Warsaw Ghetto, but will be observed at the synagogue on the Sunday before that date.

    The full name of this post-WWII holiday in Hebrew is Yom HaShoa v’Ha-Gevurah, the Day of honoring the Six Million Jews who perished in the Holocaust as well as millions of young and old deemed “not fit” by the Nazi regime, and whose plight inspired people of many backgrounds to risk themselves to resist evil with courage despite danger to themselves.

    Special music by the Shalom Singers choir and soloists will enhance the service. This is open to the entire community.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
