Hillel

Elon’s multi-faith community gathered Nov. 2 in the Sacred Space to stand against hate and show their support for the Jewish community.

The Elon community is invited to the Sacred Space at 4 p.m. on Friday to bless Shabbat and remember those killed Oct. 27 in the shooting at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh. 

The center, named for Elon parents Eric and Lori Sklut P'14, has become the focus for Jewish life on campus since it was dedicated in 2013. 

Elon offers pluralistic prayer services and community meals on campus as part of Rosh Hashanah.
