The story of Jewish service in the U.S. military is a story too infrequently told, leading others to question Jewish patriotism. Let’s use this Veterans Day and the Shabbat of Service to our Country to tell that story with great pride. 

JWB Jewish Chaplains Council, a signature program of JCC Association of North America, together with the Rabbinical Assembly, Cantors Assembly, and USCJ is pleased to invite congregations, schools, and other communities throughout the United States to transform Shabbat Parashat Chayei Sarah, the Shabbat immediately following Veterans Day, into a Shabbat of Service to our Country: Honoring Jews of the Military. 

We look forward to a Dvar Torah on Parashat Chayei Sarah by an active duty Jewish chaplain and a pre-recorded greeting by Rabbi Irving Elson, VP and Director of JWB Jewish Chaplains Council.  

Join us as we honor our Jewish veterans at this special Shabbat.  Watch on our website, YouTube Channel, or Facebook page.
