Join us for a special Shabbat service featuring a conversation with Steven Dettelbach, the new Director of the DOJ Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives, the first Senate-confirmed ATF Director since 2015. We will commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Sandy Hook shooting and welcome back our former security guard Tony Harris, who was injured in the Edmund Burke School shooting earlier this year.
During the GVP Shabbat Service we’ll also announce the release of “Turning Faith into Action: An Interfaith Toolkit to Engage the Faith Community on Gun Violence Prevention”. This free, 120-page digital and hard copy Toolkit is the work product of the DC Area Interfaith Gun Violence Prevention Network, a coalition of active volunteers from over 40 area churches, synagogues and mosques who work together to prevent and reduce gun violence in the DMV area and nationwide. The Temple Sinai GVP group co-founded the Interfaith GVP Network in 2017 with the GVP Ministry of the Washington National Cathedral.
Joining us in person? The service will be followed by an oneg. No RSVP is required.
Joining us virtually? Stream the service on the temple website.
