Saturday, November 10 starting with dinner at 6:30pm
Justice and Peace is sponsoring an evening with Holocaust survivor Irene Miller on Saturday, November 10. Irene Miller, a Holocaust survivor, author, speaker, and educator will take you on a survival journey little written and known about. You will sleep in the winter under an open sky on the no man’s land; you will freeze in a Siberian labor camp where the bears come to your door front. In Uzbekistan, you will live on boiled grass or broiled onions, and shiver with malaria. You will spend years in orphanages. When this is over you will wonder how a child with this background grows up to become a positive, creative, accomplished woman with a joy of living and love to share. Irene uses her Holocaust experience to promote tolerance and acceptance of diversity.
Her book, “Into No Man’s Land” will be available for purchase that evening. Plan to join us on November 10, starting with dinner at 6:30pm.
This program would be appropriate for middle and high school students – if you need babysitting for younger children, contact Barb Staniszewski at justiceandpeace@sjfcup.com.
