Three years after its arrival in Terre Haute, the Czech memorial scroll identified as MST #845 helped bridge the generations during a confirmation ceremony in the UHC sanctuary.
As students Ellie Klein, Rachel Seidenberg, David Halpern and Dan Atkins stood by, Rabbi Joseph Klein held the historic scroll from Pardubice and described its significance.
He began, “The Torah scroll that tonight’s Torah portion from Exodus will be read from is a special scroll to our congregation, in the life of our congregation.”
