From Pittsburgh-
Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life congregation will hold its High Holiday services in an Episcopal church located just down the street.
The Calvary Episcopal Church reached out to the congregation just
days after the October 27 attack that left 11 Jewish worshippers dead,
offering its building for any of the congregation’s needs, the Episcopal
News Service reported.
The congregation, known formally as Tree of Life*Or L’Simcha
Congregation, has been holding Shabbat services in the social hall of
Rodef Shalom Congregation, another Pittsburgh-area congregation, but it
needs a location that can hold at least 800 people for services for Rosh
Hashanah and Yom Kippur, the Pittsburgh Jewish Chronicle reported. The church’s sanctuary can seat 1,000 people.
