East Suburbs Remembrance for Kristallnacht, Thursday, November 9, 7 pm, Christ the Divine Shepherd Parish, St. Bernadette

The Night of Broken Glass (Kristallnacht) which occurred in Germany in 1938 was seen as the launch of the Holocaust.  In the years that followed, more than glass would be shattered:  families torn apart, businesses ruined, people across nations who would lose their lives simply because they were Jews, and the downfall of humanity.  Through personal stories, poetry, and song accompanied by violins rescued from the Holocaust, together we will heal brokenness then and now.
