Yom HaShoah, day of (remembrance of) the Holocaust and the Heroism, is observed on the 27th day of the month of Nisan. The 27th day of the month of Nisan this year is April 23rd.
It is a day to remember the six million Jewish people whose lives were taken during the Holocaust by the Nazis between 1933 and 1945.
May we take time today to remember, learn about, and condemn genocide.
