Join us for a service of music and poetry, remembrance and reflection.
Our children will be the last generation to hear first-hand from Holocaust survivors. If you feel your teenager is ready, please join in this important service of commemoration.
Lenka Weksberg was born in Tacovo, Czechoslovakia in 1926. In 1944, her entire family was deported to the Mathesalka Ghetto and then to Auschwitz-Birkenau. Lenka survived a slave labour camp in Geislingen, and Alach, as well as a death march before she was liberated by the US Army in April 1945. After the war, Lenka returned to Czechoslovakia, then moved to Israel and finally immigrated to Canada in 1953.
Come bear witness to her testimonial.
