Channukah Celebrations IN Haddonfield NJ 2018

Given the history that has troubled so many Jews and the tragedy in Pittsburgh that ran shivers through the memory channels in Jews across the USA it was not merely touching but quite amazing to feel the kind and encouraging support from Haddonfield neighbors.

We the people of the Haddonfield Jewish center are still a small fledgling group yet we are confident that out of tragedy we will be able to find a community. This will take long time but we have no deadline. in the years ahead of community will be comprised of people across generations who love the USA and love Haddonfield but also love the comfort and richness of Jewish culture in our pleasant town, especially the Festival of Light that celebrates overcoming the darkness of oppression through struggle against the odds.

We are very fortunate that on Wednesday December 5 2018 there will be a public Menorah lighting at Library Point in front of the Haddonfield Public Library thanks to the generous support of Chabad. But I must underscore that we are an independent group, searching for our spirit and souls, and therefore we are not part of Chabad. In Haddonfield we have a private diaspora that with perserverance will soon end.

The task today is to find each other
Every time we gather we meet new people for the first time. And we are therefore planning a small channukah celebration at our usual gathering place for Sunday December 9 at 6 pm until 8 pm.

Above all we must never forget that the purpose of a party is ... to have FUN!!!
