For loving G-d means obeying His Commands & His Commands are not burdensome. 1 Jn 5:3
Pesach/Passover 2025
Olive Tree Community will not be having a large catered Seder this year (but as we grow, we hope next year we might!) Instead, we have planned to have a small potluck seder with our local congregation. We encourage everyone to gather their friends and family in their homes to share the telling of the Lord delivering Israel from slavery in Egypt.
Because our seating is so limited, we are starting by getting a head count from our local congregation, and it will be first come, first served. We wish that we could invite everyone in the community but as was stated above, we just don't have the space. Those who are a part of the local community will receive an email regarding the details, Please RSVP to that email. Thank you!
Shalom from all of us at Olive Tree Community Spokane!
As we pray for the return of the Oct 7th hostages... Let Us Never Forget: The Night Of Broken Glass
On November 9–10, 1938, Nazi leaders unleashed a series of pogroms against the Jewish population in Germany and recently incorporated territories. This event came to be called Kristallnacht (The Night of Broken Glass) because of the shattered glass that littered the streets after the vandalism and destruction of Jewish-owned businesses, synagogues, and homes.
Did you know...?
Nazi officials disguised the organized nature of the pogroms. They described the actions as justifiable and spontaneous responses of the German population to the assassination of a German diplomatic official, Ernst vom Rath, in Paris. This unprecedented violence against the Reich’s Jews generated international outrage.
Did you know...?
During the pogrom, some 30,000 Jewish males were rounded up and taken to concentration camps. This was the first time Nazi officials made massive arrests of Jews specifically because they were Jews, without any further cause for arrest.
Did you know...?
In the aftermath of Kristallnacht, the Nazi regime ordered the Jewish community to pay a 1 billion Reichsmark “atonement tax” and rapidly enacted many anti-Jewish laws and edicts.
These details were gathered from the Holocaust Encyclopedia and you can read more about Kristallnacht at this link:
