Summary |
On Wednesday, May 29, BCRC, in partnership with Congregation Sha'are Shalom and the Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC), presented a candidates' forum at BCRC. Nine of the twelve candidates who are on the ballot in the 10th Congressional District Democratic primary attended and held a vigorous discussion of issues ranging from antisemitism in schools and colleges, the war against Hamas, reproductive rights, how to break gridlock in Washington and much more. We hope to make this the first in an annual series, since in Virginia every year there is a different political race. We invite any congregant would be interested to organize a Republican candidate forum as well. If you missed this forum you may view the videotape on the BCRC Virginia YouTube channel, or at https://www.youtube.com/

Announcing Sanctuary & Social Renewal Sprint 2
Our goal is to raise $50,000 by June 30 to build a spiritual Jerusalem stone wall backdrop integrated with the bimah, with recessed lighting and built-in space for a permanent ark.We plan to have the sanctuary construction done during the summer so that we can be ready for the High Holy Days. We thank everyone who has donated to our earlier phase.

GMU Commended by JCRC
Recent antisemitic threats uncovered by security personnel at George Mason University illustrate how difficult and scary life still is for many Jewish college students. Fortunately, GMU administrators took strong steps to address these developments. The Jewish Community Resource Council (JCRC) of Greater Washington put out this statement commending GMU for their commitment to and compassion for Jewish members of their community.
