Selichot Program and Service


Selichot Program and Service
9:30 PM: REFRESHMENTS & RECEPTION
10:00 PM: SERVICE
As antisemitism rises in Canada and around the world, how can we stand together to protect our communities, uphold our values, and strengthen our democracy?
Join us for an important Tikkun Leil Slichot panel discussion featuring three leaders on the front lines of this fight: Deborah Lyons, former Special Envoy on Preserving Holocaust Remembrance and Combating Antisemitism; Michael Lee, former BC MLA who championed anti-hate crime legislation and the adoption of the IHRA definition; and Emet Davis, Director of Community Organizing Against Antisemitism at the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver.
The conversation will be moderated by journalist and ally Pat Johnson.
Together, they will explore the challenges, successes, and urgent work ahead in addressing antisemitism, building coalitions, and ensuring a safer future for all Canadians.
Free of charge.
Registration is required at: https://templesholombc.shulcloud.com/form/slichot-2025.html
