Chanukah brings light into the darkness and hope in times of despair. At least that’s what the Jewish congregations in Spokane County will demonstrate with their celebrations on Dec. 10.
Chabad of Spokane County will be hosting a pro-Israel rally in downtown Spokane on Sunday. It will be held at 4 p.m. at the Riverfront Park Rotary Fountain.
The Jewish community in Spokane, and all over the world, is welcoming the new year beginning at sundown on Sunday, Sept.25. Rosh Hashanah is celebrated with family and friends, celebratory and traditional foods, religious music, chants, prayer and reflection.
Next week Spokane’s Jewish community will observe Passover, an eight-day commemoration honoring the liberation of the Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt.
