Amidst the tragedies we commemorate on this day, we will recall the teaching that the Messianic age is said to be ushered in on Tisha B’Av. Please join Shir Hadash and Fr. Jon Pedigo, Executive Director of PACT, as we visit St. Lucy Catholic Parish in Campbell to celebrate a special Sunday service in Spanish with simultaneous English audio translation and learn how we can orient ourselves to human dignity in a time where so much feels so heavy.

There are three on-ramps to this day. You are welcome to one, two, or all three.

At 11:30am, we will meet at Shir Hadash to orient ourselves to Tisha B’Av as well as Mass and St. Lucy’s with Fr. Jon. Join us in building community and in learning together.

We will leave for St. Lucy’s at 12:30pm for a 1:00 PM Mass. Parking is available at St. Lucy’s. Rabbi Rafi will speak about Tisha B’Av at the service as Fr. Jon leads. The address of St. Lucy's is: 2350 S Winchester Blvd, Campbell, CA 95008

At 2:30 PM, we will meet with a community member of St. Lucy’s to discuss what this community means to them and, in this moment, what is heavy in their hearts?

We look forward to a powerful morning and afternoon of learning, community building, and orienting towards human dignity as we observe and commemorate Tisha B'Av.
