Interfaith Remembrance for Sri Lankan Christians & All Victims of Easter Terrorist Attack
04/23/2019 10:47:56 AM
We were all shocked and saddened by the news of the Easter Sunday terrorist attacks in Sri Lanka, as well as other recent attacks on religious institutions. On April 22, an interfaith prayer vigil was held at the ADAMS Center, next door to BCRC, which was co-sponsored by BCRC, ADAMS, Christian Fellowship Church (CFC) and many other local instit
utions. Over a dozen faith communities were represented as well as the local Sri Lankan community. Rabbi Amy, Rizwan Jaka of ADAMS, Rabbi Greenspoon of Sha'are Shalom, Pastor Mike Trivett of CFC, Loudoun Board of Supervisors Chair Phyllis Randall and many others delivered moving and inspiring remarks. See the news story reported by WTOP News for details and a photo album. Also see ABC News . By coming together as a community, we hope to do our part to end this cycle of hatred, and that next time we can all come together under happier circumstances.

Helper Family Returns: Please Sign Up!
Beginning this year, BCRC is bringing back the Helper Family program for Friday Erev Shabbat services. We encourage each family unit (including single members) to volunteer as a helper family for one or two Erev Shabbat services each year. This is a mitzvah for the BCRC community, and a great way for you to connect with other congregants. Click HERE to sign up. Click HERE to see full instructions for helper families. Thank you!
