Bend the Arc: Pittsburgh Steering Committee member Tammy Hepps holds the Havdalah Candle
On Saturday night, March 18, 2017, Bend the Arc: Pittsburgh and the Jewish Family & Children’s Service held a community Havdalah service and vigil in support of immigrants and refugees.
The location of the vigil — on the grounds of Community Day School, next to Gary and Nancy Tuckfelt’s powerful memorial, “Keeping Tabs: A Holocaust Sculpture” — provided a powerful symbolism. It was a chilly night, but our hearts were full, and our spirit kept us warm.
