Join Holocaust Museum Houston for an evening lecture featuring Dr. Tabea Linhard, author of Unexpected Routes: Refugee Writers in Mexico. Unexpected Routes chronicles the refugee journeys of six writers whose lives were upended by fascism in the aftermath of the Spanish Civil War and during World War II. During her lecture, Dr. Linhard will explore the stories of German author Ruth Rewald, who was murdered during the Holocaust, and Czech writer and journalist Egon Erwin Kisch, who wrote about the Holocaust while in Mexico. While the writers she discusses in the book came from different backgrounds and wrote in different languages, they all made sense of their forced displacement in works that reveal their conflicted relationships with the people and places they encountered in transit as well as in Mexico. The literary output of these brilliant, prolific, but also flawed individuals reflects the most salient contradictions of what it meant to escape from fascist occupied Europe. This event is free and open to the public but advanced registration is required.

This event brings together Jewish, Muslim, and Christian voices for an honest and hopeful conversation about identity, stereotypes, faith, history, and shared humanity.

Federation event for community members.

Sukkot asks us to leave the security of our homes and spend a week living in a temporary one. At first glance, it seems like a strange way to celebrate our relationship with God. But perhaps that’s the point. Sukkot challenges us to rethink the relationship between the physical and the spiritual and to discover how something as tangible as a home, a meal, a roof, or a piece of fruit can become a pathway to faith. We’ll explore what Sukkot teaches about finding God not by escaping the physical world, but by using it to connect to something deeper.

As all are invited to join us on or near the bima (stage), we conclude Yom Kippur with the rituals of light, spices and wine, hoping that our greatest self discoveries of these days linger and inspire our senses. Break Fast to follow.

A beautiful and moving conclusion to Yom Kippur, we sing, we pray, we remember and redouble our focus on becoming our best selves.

We will remember them, our Yizkor service always includes a slideshow of your/our loved ones who are no longer with us. If you have submitted pictures and names in the past, they remain in the slideshow.

A wonderful opportunity for all to experience and express heartfelt prayers of love and hope and fear.
