PLEASE MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR THIS UPCOMING EVENT: SEX TRAFFICKING PREVENTION AWARENESS

  • WHAT? Presentation by Rev. Al Erickson on Sex trafficking prevention/awareness
  • WHEN? Thursday, 07/21/22, 4:00PM

Pastor Al Erickson is coming to Great Falls to talk about predators – both on the internet and in person. This is a secular, non-religious, non-denominational talk on awareness. There is no charge and all faiths are welcome.

We in Montana may think we are immune to such things as sexual predators, but we are not! This presentation is intended to inform children/parents and grandparents of the risks and to equip them with the knowledge of how to recognize the red flags. It will be held at Faith Lutheran Church in Great Falls on Thursday, July 21, 2022, at 4:00 pm.
There is no charge. Hope to see you there!

Holocaust Survivor Day 2022 – International March of the Living
The International March of the Living is proud to be a partner for the second annual Holocaust Survivor Day on June 26, 2022. For the inaugural HSD in 2021, we asked March of the Living alumni, friends, staff and leaders of all backgrounds, ages and ethnicities, to share a brief message, in their own language, elaborating on the impact Survivors had on them.
www.motl.org

The Western Region has been blessed to have many survivors travel on this journey with us, including Mike and Manya Wallenfels and Ben Midler, who often mention the March when they provide their testimonies.

This year, Ben Lesser of Las Vegas plans to travel along with our delegation.

Plans for a robust IMOTL 2023 are under way. This year we will be celebrating the 35th year of the March and Israel’s 75th year of Independence. It will be an experience not to be missed. be a part of this historical moment.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Wishing you all a Shabbat Shalom
